Episode 8: Can You Use Lingo That Your Community Did Not Invent?

On this week’s episode of “Yep, That Happened,” I talk about Megan Thee Stallion’s new album and her new single, “Body.” I also discuss whether it’s ok for cis-hetero Black people to use Black gay lingo.

Yep, That Happened is a weekly podcast where writer and host, Shirley, talks about what everyone else is talking about, what needs to be discussed more, and what no longer deserves our time.
