Besties Stacy and Daynah dig into whether season 4 of The Morning Show still delivers on its original promise of women-centered power or simply mirrors the same messy systems it once set out to critique. They break down ambition, accountability, and the ways women turn on each other, calling out what felt uncomfortably real, what went under-examined, and why certain storylines landed harder than others.

Along the way, they share their own experiences with getting fired for setting boundaries and navigating midlife reckoning energy, before circling back to Corey discourse, Stella’s reckoning, Alex’s choices, and why “girlboss” narratives tend to collapse when real power enters the room.

Together, they ask the real question: is this empowerment or just realism dressed up as progress?
