| 6/23/26 |  Mind Your Business & Pass the Tony | This week we’re celebrating history while side-eyeing the nonsense. We spotlight Qween Jean becoming the first openly Black transgender woman to win a Tony Award for Best Costume Design for Cats: The Jellicle Ball and discuss what it means to see ballroom culture centered on Broadway with icons like Leiomy Maldonado and Chasity Moore helping bring the culture to life. Then we get into the ongoing attacks on Black women and trans women after comments targeting Michelle Obama and anti-trans rhetoric making headlines during Pride Month. Who gets harmed when people start policing what womanhood looks like? And why are Black women and trans women so often caught in the crossfire? Plus, our favorite game returns: To Be or Not To Be, where we’re choosing sides on summer flings, girls trips, exes, rosters, jumping into homegirl fights, and all the hot-girl chaos the season has to offer.

| 9/18/25 | S11 Ep 3- Live Show : We All We Got – Community as Survival for Black Women | In this special live recording of the CareFreeBlackGirl Podcast, Hazell, Phoenix, and Leslie dive into the powerful ways Black women create, hold, and sustain community as a form of survival. From the everyday acts of checking in on each other to building networks of mutual aid, mentorship, and sister circles, this conversation reminds us that we truly are all we got. The hosts bring the energy of a live crowd into the mix with audience reflections, interactive games like “Who Said Dat?”, and a powerful collective affirmation to close out the show. Key Moments in This Episode: The importance of mutual aid and recycling strength Mentorship as protection and multiplication Sister circles and sacred spaces of care Audience game: “Who Said Dat?” – Support Edition Live reflections: “Who’s YOUR go-to Black woman?” Closing affirmations to remind us that community is survival Whether you’re listening solo or with your crew, this episode is a love letter to the power of Black women showing up for one another.

| 9/2/25 |  Protect the Culture, Not the Predator | Welcome back to CareFreeBlackGirl 2.0, where we ask the questions nobody else will. This week, we’re unpacking the dangerous intersection of fame, protection, and accountability in our community. Using the Sean “Diddy” Combs trial as a case study, we look at how celebrity status often shields predators while leaving survivors — especially Black women — to relive their trauma in public. But this conversation goes beyond one man. From R. Kelly to Trey Songz, Chris Brown, and Jonathan Majors, there’s a long pattern of power and celebrity creating immunity from consequences. We ask: Why does protecting predators get mistaken for protecting the culture? We also explore the emotional toll this cycle takes on Black women — expected to be strong, to show up, to clean up — while rarely being offered the same protection. 💡 Segments you’ll hear in this episode: • The Diddy Trial as a Case Study: Media spectacle, selective outrage, and the irony of “protecting the culture.” • This Is a Pattern: Celebrity immunity, community responses, and Black apologist culture. • The Toll on Black Women: From courtrooms to culture wars, why we’re often the scapegoat and the fixer. • Protect the Culture, Protect the People: What accountability really looks like when you center survivors. • Games: Who Said Dat? + CareFree Keys: “How to Not Play the Cleanup Woman.” ✨ Takeaway: Protecting the culture means confronting harm — not excusing it. ⸻ 👉 Follow the hosts and join the conversation online using #CareFreeBlackGirl Learn more about your ad choices.

| 8/19/25 |  I'm Not my Hustle | We’re BACK for Season 11! The hosts kick things off with a summer catch-up and one word to describe their vibe. This week’s CareFreeBlackGirl spotlight is on Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles, who just announced her reelection bid. Then we dive deep into “Gurl, I’m Not My Hustle” — the anti-grind conversation. From Kamala Harris to Michelle Obama, leaders are reminding us it’s okay to step back and let others lead. We unpack what it means to rest as resistance, bow out with intention, and shift from burnout to sustainable impact. Plus: 💄 Hot or Not — JT’s Mac collab, Lizzo’s rap era, and new music from Ledisi 👜 Emergency Baddie Kit essentials for outside season 📚 Meka’s book pick Don’t forget to subscribe and catch us live on the CareFreeBlackGirl Cookout Tour — Chicago (Aug 30), Charlotte (Sept 6), Savannah + more!

| 6/3/25 |  More Visibility, More Problems | This week, the girls are back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation: What does it mean to be seen and still be silenced? From Cassie’s leaked abuse footage and the industry’s shameful silence, to Halle Bailey being harassed just for being a mother, to Megan Thee Stallion still having to prove she’s worthy of protection—this episode digs deep into the emotional toll of being a visible Black woman in a world that claims to celebrate us but refuses to protect us. Main Topic: • The double bind of visibility: hyper-visible but still vulnerable • DEI may be fading, but anti-Black woman bias is thriving • The emotional and creative toll of constantly having to “be strong” • How to build your CareFree Survival Kit: joy rituals, real boundaries, and radical softness HOT or NOT: Culture + Media Edition • Forever Netflix: Black girl/boyhood nostalgia and literary gems • Is public support for Black women real or just performance? • “Dandy” style: celebration or cultural erasure? Who Said Dat? – Black Fashion & Culture Remix Guess who dropped these iconic quotes about fashion, power, and presence. Was it Solange? Pharrell? Naomi? We’re testing the crew and giving flowers. Get Free Segment: We’re done shrinking. From money to love to how we show up online—we’re claiming our full selves. I’m no longer shrinking myself when…” — and neither should you. ⸻ 🎧 Tune in now and join the conversation using #CareFreeBlackGirl Follow us: Instagram: @CareFreeBlackGirlInc Twitter: @CFBGPod Learn more about your ad choices.
