Hey y'all! The end of the year is nigh (can you believe I'm using a word like that? #Fancy), so I wanted us to end on a positive and profound note since the holidays are coming up. Like most of you, I'm spending the holidays without my family, which can be a bummer, stressful, or actually, a good thing if things with your family aren't so great. Whatever the case may be, we're all looking inward, which is why I'm so pumped for this supersized episode because we are talking therapy! And in par...

Black Fraisans - the future is bright in part because of today's guest Raquel Willis. She is a trans activist, community organizer, writer, and currently is the Director of Communications for the Ms. Foundation. I am so impressed and inspired by her passion to make the world a better place, her intelligence, her warmth. Everything! So I'm glad that she took the time to walk us through her career, why gender reveal parties are trash, and what she wants the country to focus on during the next f...

It's the holidays, y'all, so that means eating lots of carbs, hopefully a niece pressie aka present or two, and of course, family. All families are unique with their own set of quirks, flaws, magic, and stress. Therefore, it only makes sense that during this holiday season, Phoebe talks about the family of it all. And she's thrilled to be joined in the studio with star of "Brooklyn Nine Nine," and the upcoming film "In The Heights" Stephanie Beatriz. She is so open, vulnerable, and funny. It'...

Listen, boo boos, your girl Phoebe is tired, so she’s cutting straight to the chase. One of the number one themes that y’all wanted on Black Frasier is Siblings, so that’s what we’re discussing today. Sibling relay-lays can be tricky. Magical. Soul shaking. Special. Wonderful. Difficult. The best and the worst. Who better to discuss all the ups and downs of siblinghood than iconic twin pop stars Tegan & Sara. It’s a really good episode with phenomenal audience questions. Get into it! Tega...

Hey y'all! This episode was recorded before the election results came in, so that explains why none of us are addressing it. British Baekoff and I will next week. Anyway, after a week off, we're back with a brand new episode and I'm so stoked because I'm sitting down with actor, producer, Emmy award winner and star of one of my all-time fav TV shows "Mad Men." Of course, I'm talking about Jon Hamm! He has been so supportive of me and my career and I've always appreciated the work he's done. A...

Hey y'all! Can you believe I'm doing back to back supersized episodes? Well, honestly, I had no choice because there is soooooooo much to discuss when it comes to K-pop that I already want to do another episode. But in the meantime, let's focus on today. After British Baekoff and I talk about his musical past in a scream metal band (lol, wut?), I'm talking to my first guest my friend/co-worker/life coach/part-time therapist/#1 BTS fan Mai Huynh. We not only discuss why K-pop has taken over th...

It goes without saying that America and the world are going through a reckoning and following the lack of justice served for Breonna Taylor and last week's disastrous presidential debate, Phoebe needed to sit down with someone to help make sense of it all and who better to do that than National Book Award winner, Guggenheim fellow, educator, and NYT best-selling author Dr. Ibram X. Kendi? In this episode, Phoebe and Ibram discuss anti-racism, respectability politics, the impact black feminist...

Next, Phoebe chats with Chris about defunding the police, the rise of f...

Host-presenter-activist-loyal friend Jameela Jamil is joining me today for what I believe to be a powerful and necessary episode of Black Fras. We get into the nitty gritty: the iWeigh community she has painstakingly built, how activism can be tricky in the limelight, how criticism and failure isn't the end of the world, and she rates my British accent. Hint: my British accent is trash! Plus, we answer some great audience questions that we hope will help people feel less alone. NOTE: TRIGGER ...
