Happy belated Pride Month you freaky frogs!! We're back with another episode of Snippets of Shants, and we're introducing segments! We start with Off the Rip where we do a quick rundown of a few random topics, then cover the biggest headlines during Talk of the Timeline, and close out with a more thought-provoking convo for Off Script.
In this week's Off the Rip, we touch on the movie Straw, Black Music Month, and what it means for us with Jupiter in Cancer and a full moon in Sagittarius.
Then for Talk of the Timeline we dive into a Florida sheriff's threat to protesters, Yunti Tia calling out Diddy's Hollywood friends for their silence, Love Island USA S7 early season drama, The Chi being greenlit for season 8, and our thoughts on the 2025 BET Awards.
We wrap it all up with Off Script, where we talk about how simple disagreements turn into unnecessary distance because people don't know how to communicate like the grownups they are.

We start with a heartfelt reflection on Mother’s Day and the emotional layers it brings, then dive into the heavy news of Diddy’s trial finally beginning. We talk about what it means to be a “humble” Black person in the spotlight (yes, we’re side-eying y’all over the Shadeur Sanders discourse). We give our unfiltered takes on our fave (and not-so-fave) MET Gala looks, and dare we say it… Candace Owens might be making a few valid points?!
We also had a spicy conversation about “Sinners”, our favorite scenes, and all the symbolism. Tap in for real talk, laughs, and a little self-awareness on the side!
