We’re alive and in the flesh! That’s what they’re saying!!!!
The lore in this episode is not to be missed. A new Text Me Back cast member has entered the villa and she is something to behold. We would share her to the IG, but fear we would be banned from the network forever. Tune into the youtube over at www.youtube.com/@textmebackpod for the juice–and special shoutout to Rosalie Gale of Ugly Baby, Belinda The BOLD and her Unique Boutique, and our many wonderful Seattle pals for introducing this new icon.
New Microsegment in this episode: The Concept of Having a Younger Brother. Younger brothers? We’re onto you, and we don’t like it. Little sisters, tell us what YOU get up to via the BFF Part Phone (703) 829-0003.
And is everything irie in this episode? No it is not. Sorry in advance, we should probably have cut all that. If you are an offended Jamaican, please do write in with your thoughts and complaints at deartextmeback@gmail.com so we can issue a personal apology and DO NOT make our bad behavior your stim of the week!!!
Special thanks to Labour Temple in Seattle for the gorgeous space!!!

A pleasure to listen to two funny gals talk about everything from the crucial to acknowledge democratic and capitalist decay, but more importantly, and much more frequently, the absolute absurdity and silliness that is life.
