    7. platonic friendships, who? platonic, where? ft. Bod and Richard

    Lydia and Debbie did something a little different this week. The girls called up two of their friends to not only for a laugh, but to probe the male mind when it comes to platonic relationships between heterosexual men and women. Bod and Richard stole the show, they touched on so much from the truths about social media and parenting, being Mansa Musa or living as a Samari to discussing credit and finances with prospective partners. Special thanks to both Bod and Richard, you can find them both on Instagram at @Emtyshots and @theghanaiangodfather, respectively.  As always, to join us in 'thinking out black' send an email with your thoughts to 'hello@thinkingoutblack.com', and in the meantime, you can also stay in touch with the girls on Instagram at @thinkingoutblack.
