Welcome to Black People Love Paramore, a pop culture podcast, not about the band Paramour, but about the common, as well as the uncommon interests of black people.

I'm Sequoia Holmes.

And I'm Ryan Graham.

And before we get started with the episode, take a second.

Comment to us on Spotify.

You guys are really good about commenting to us on Spotify.

I really appreciate it. If you have any thoughts, any vibes, comment per usual. Also, rate. If you haven't done that already, drop a five star. 100%. And you know what I did notice from last episode that I don't appreciate? Oh, please. Remember when I was given the plot of High School Musical and I said, if you think I did a good job, drop five stars.

And the got nine.

Not a single five star. Correct. Thank you all for doing the assignment. Not a single star, matter of fact. I agree. But there was plenty of cheetahs and plenty of basketballs because we said drop cheetahs if you like cheetah girls, you know, drop basketball. So y'all heard when we said drop some emojis if you have feelings, but when it came to my high school musical review, nobody dropped anything. I think that's funny. But you know what's crazy? Because like, remember your your thing was if I did a good job. Right. So because I know that I did a good job, I wholeheartedly expected for, you know, our audience to be like, Sequoia, you know what?

You really did eat that? Like, I'm going to go ahead and drop the five stars. I didn't get a star. I didn't get two star. I didn't get a single. There was not a, it's like y'all didn't hear me. No, no. I think it's crazy because I think they actually heard you. I think you didn't hear you. So when you said if I did a good job,

And let me just assume that they didn't hear me.

Hey, guys, if you listened to the high school musical episode and you thought that I did a good job with my recounting of what the movie was about, I pulled out themes. I, you know, I did a whole thing. If you thought I did a good job, drop five stars in the comments on YouTube or on Spotify.

All the things.

I get that.

And also if you did it, thank you for being honest.

Because I think this is the real problem in the world today.

We live in multiple realities.

Some of us live on Earth and others live in delusion.

And there's nothing wrong with delusions.

And I'm here grounded on Earth.

Earth sign. Matter of fact, lots of Earth. Earth. Lots of Earth in the big three. We're being for real. Oh, Jimina. It's Bergo and Capricorn, baby. Okay. Wow. The earthiest of them at that. Yeah, I don't have that.

Yeah, I got a lot of air.
