Roy Wood Jr. and Rosebud Baker Are Iconic Guests

(...and technically nepos babies)

This month I interviewed two (2!) iconic guests: Roy Wood Jr and Rosebud Baker.

Now, I have an announcement. Nay— a commitment to make to all of you. I solemnly vow to release 12 interviews in the next year* (terms and conditions may apply). For those who have been cyber bullying me in the comments of my videos, congratulations… bullying works. Thank you for supporting this artistic endeavor. If you are interested in paying me for my labor, feel free to subscribe to this monthly newsletter where I’ll download you all on our latest guests.

And if paying for my labor sounds like a nonstarter for you, for economic or “prejudicial” reasons, I have coined a couple new phrases.

“If you want to be praxis, don’t skip that ad, sis.”

“Watch the interviews thrice if you’re feeling nice.”

“Like and subscribe if you’re feeling the vibe. Watch the ads whether you’re happy or sad.”

(Terms & Conditions: Economy and civil rights permitting. This interview counts as two… only 10 more to go! Ok bye!!!)

Honorable Mentions

Roy’s standout quote is probably “at least the black people who owned slaves, their descendants gave us Afro beats. F y'all gave us.”

My favorite Rosebud’s zinger is maybe “What is giving a Republican, aside from my face and body?”. I also love this exchange which works best if you’re familiar with the comedian, Alex English.

[00:19:33] Ziwe: Coming up. Speaking of black friends, we have a really strong mutual, Alex English. 

[00:19:37] Rosebud: Yes. 

[00:19:38] Ziwe: And he told me that every time he's around your baby, she cries. Are you raising your daughter to hate gay black men?

[00:19:46] Rosebud: No, I'm raising her to hate Alex English, specifically. 

[00:19:48] Ziwe: Why Alex English? 

[00:19:49] Rosebud: Because he hates gay black men. 

[00:19:53] Ziwe: We're not allowed to laugh at that.

Also doesn’t Rosebud look like Nicole Kidman?????!!!!!!!! I don’t think I noticed that until day of interview.

CLIPS, CLIPS, CLIPS

ROY WOOD JR.

My first guest is the brilliant Roy Wood Jr. He gained widespread recognition as a correspondent on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah and as the host of the White House Correspondents Dinner.

He’s taped four (4!) standup specials and tours around the country. You can find him weekly on CNN’s Have I Got News for you.
