The Read
Loud Speakers Network
Join bloggers Kid Fury and Crissle for their weekly podcast covering hip-hop and pop culture's most trying stars. Throwing shade and spilling tea with a flippant and humorous attitude, no star is safe from Fury and Crissle unless their name is Beyoncé. (Or Blue Ivy.)
As transplants to New York City (Kid Fury from Miami and Crissle from Oklahoma City), The Read also serves as an on-air therapy session for two friends trying to adjust to life (and rats) in the big city.
The Read is part of the LoudSpeakers Network and is published every week on iTunes, iHeart Radio Talk, Soundcloud & Stitcher.

Burned Plastic
So then for my birthday party, which was an all girls pool party, I was like "Janis, I can't invite you because I think you're a lesbian." I mean, I couldn't have a lesbian at my party. There could be girls there in their bathing suits. I mean, right? She was a lesbian! So then her mom called my mom and we started yelling at her. It was so ridiculous. And then she dropped out of school 'cause no one would talk to her. When she came back in the fall for highschool, all of her hair was cut off and she was totally weird and...now I guess she's on crack.

Hi, Hillary!
My mother was a REAL WHORE! AND A JUNKIE! And she traded me...for ten dollars and a fix. There are many things in my life that I regret, including having you for a daughter, because that man was your father...but I WILL not apologize for the decisions I made.
