A lot of these bitches are Wendy's son.

Do you know what I mean?

And that's no disrespect to a lot of people.

But I mean, think about like watching, say, like I watch what happens live or, you know,

some of the Bravo programming that like Andy Cohen hosts.

Like there's a lot of Wendy in his delivery and conversational style.

And, you know, he obviously has his own unique appeal, too.

But I don't even think you get Andy Cohen if you don't have someone like Wendy.

The weekly show where we peel back the layers of black culture we rarely discuss in mixed company.

So today, we're talking about one of the most controversial, legendary, polarizing, iconic voices in celebrity gossip to date Wendy Williams.

since her early days of radio. And in the world of Hollywood unlocks and shade rooms and

Charlemains, Wendy's found a way to cut through the noise with her unique brand of pop culture

commentary. But as of late, Wendy's public life has been plagued by

health challenges, a messy divorce, and an abrupt canceling of her show. So as of this recording,

she hasn't had the chance to give us an official goodbye. So we decided to look back on Wendy's career

All that and more after the break. So, Eric.
