    EP 84: Killing Me Softly with MaRah and Taz

    Hey friends! This week Syd welcomes two special guests, MaRah and Taz who host the true crime podcast, Sistas Who Kill that focuses on Black women who commit crimes. They share their unique perspective on why they chose to explore Black female killers/victims and how they navigate the complexities of discussing race and gender in their show. Throughout the episode, we delve into some of the most intriguing cases they have covered and discuss the ways in which society often stereotypes and misunderstands Black women who commit crimes. Both ladies provide insight into how they strive to shed light on the individual stories and circumstances of each case, rather than perpetuating harmful myths and biases. We also touch on the importance of giving a platform to underrepresented voices and communities, and how this can challenge our preconceived notions and broaden our understanding of the world around us. Keep up with the latest cases MaRah and Taz are covering on their show by giving them a follow on Instagram @SistasWhoKillPod If you haven’t already, make sure to follow the podcast on Instagram and Facebook @AnnoyedNotOffended. https://linktr.ee/AnnoyedNotOffended

But Syd is back in the studio for a quick solo catch up. The episode is inspired by Kari Faux’s single, Me First, which is an affirmation about not neglecting your needs. Even Kari herself said in an interview, “it’s really a self-love bop for the twerkers.” Syd chats about the difficulties of putting yourself first. Whether it's setting boundaries, stepping outside of yourself or learning when to say no, these are practices most people aren’t taught and have to learn how to put into practice. Yet, taking care of yourself is the easiest path to happiness and fulfillment because when your needs are met you can easily meet others.  If you haven’t already, make sure to follow the podcast on Instagram and Facebook @AnnoyedNotOffended. https://linktr.ee/AnnoyedNotOffended  Let me judge your annoyances both big and small to see if you should be annoyed or offended.
