Sometimes the pop culture we love just teens hits differently in retrospect.

Maybe it's a tabloid story we couldn't get enough of or an illicit student-teacher relationship

on our favorite show. We're Suzy Banna-Karim and Jessica Bennett,

posts of the new podcast in retrospect, where each week we'll revisit a cultural moment from

the past that shaped us and probably you to try to understand what it taught us about the world

and our place in it. You're the first person that I've talked to about this for years and years.

Listen to in retrospect on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you find your favorite

shows. Hi, it's Carol Markowitz. I'm so excited to launch my very own podcast. We'll talk to the

biggest names and politics, news, entertainment and get to the truth of the issues that affect

your family and have some fun along the way. It's the Carol Markowitz show, part of the Clay

Travis and Buck Sexton podcast network. New episodes drop every Monday and Thursday

on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Okay, Katie. Quick, rapid fire. What do you think about when you think about Black stories?

Tony Morrison. Long novels. Zines. Very complex stories. Movie night with popcorn.

Lineage and history. BT awards. Hood motifs. I'm reliable narrators.

So it's hard to condense a narrative that's so big into such a small space.

But that's why we have the podcast. I'm Katie. And I'm Eves. And on on theme, we tell stories

about Black stories. Listen to on theme on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get

your podcasts. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning and the weather outside is frightful.

Not nearly as frightful though as what's happening inside our minds.

Oh man. We need to clear that out. That's a blizzard.

A little holiday colonic with a brand new. What's on your mind?
