What's up, y'all? This is Eric here. And before we get in today's episode, I just want to give you a quick notice. Today we're going to be talking about a book, Britt Bennett's The Mothers. But there are light spoilers. If you are a person who doesn't like spoilers, maybe you read the book first and then come back and listen to this episode. But here's the show.

Hi, I'm Eric.

And we are.

For colored nerds.

The conversations that black people have. When white people are not in the room.

But we record them.

And we put them on the internet.

I wish I rhymed.

It doesn't rhyme.

We should have it rhyme.

I want to, like, say in, like, a good Jesse Jackson voice.

As soon as you were suggested that, I was like, we should abandon this idea.

We should rewrite it. I mean, we also maybe should rethink that just because, I mean, we just recently had a white person.

One, but he was, as I said in the previous episode, he was accompanied.

Yeah.

So the slot, the race to become the first unaccompanied white guest on, it's whole hard for me not to say America's Next Top Model.

But on for colored nerds.

Still open.

Still open.

I think it's going to take a while.

I mean, this shit is like The Hunger Games.

We got to line off the door.
