Each episode, we pick a year, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it.

With our friends, fellow comedians, and favorite authors.

Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s.

84 was a wild year.

I don't think there's a more important year for black people.

Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s.

84 was a wild year.

We got it wrong.

Many of the problems that we are freaked out about in the world are the result of stress.

I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me?

Do you remember when Diana Ross double-tapped Lil' Kim's boobs at the VMAs?

Or when Kanye said that George Bush didn't like black people?

I know what you're thinking.

What the hell does George Bush got to do with Lil' Kim?
