    Well, the end is finally here y'all. You know I had to end season four of the Bonnets & Durags podcast with a solo episode. “You Deserve” is a love letter to myself. Thank you for an incredible fourth season of the show. I appreciate you so much Pillow Talk Pod Squad! See you in 2021. Love and light. - via Simone

    Love is love...right? For this episode of the podcast, via Simone facilitated healthy dialogue with three different folks with three very different perspectives on interracial dating and relationships. Bridget is currently in an interracial relationship with a white man. Catherine is a product of an interracial relationship and has her own personal thoughts on dating outside of your race. Johnny is completely against interracial relationships for a specific reason. Listen to the episode in full to hear potentially changed mindsets. Where do you land on this topic and how do you feel about it?

    "Do It For Your Grams" ft. @via.simone

    For this quick & dirty solo episode, via Simone touches on a few key points that will have a direct affect on our communities: this upcoming election and the rise of Clubhouse. Both matters have the ability to change the entire landscape of our current black, creative, and prosperous lives as we know it. Let's get into it.

    Go vote. Wear a mask. Take a break. All black lives matter.

    Bonnets & Durags Podcast returns after a mini hiatus. This time around, Simone gathered her fellow podcasting friends Ti, Lashawn, and John together for a real ass conversation about commitment, compromise, and consistency in relationships and beyond. Each guest dives into what dating with intent means, what a good man/woman is, what love looks like for them currently and how they hope to grow with it moving forward.
