  • The Double Bind: Intelligence and Ignorance in the Black Community
    Feb 8 2025

    This week on Them People, we're gettin' into somethin' real: the double-edged sword of bein' a free spirit and, sometimes, too smart. We're talkin' the highs of livin' your truth, wild and untamed, but also the lows of how that impacts us, especially in the Black community. Are we doin' too much on social media? Is our "extra-ness" actually holdin' us back? And are we accidentally alienating folks in our own communities just because we see things different? We're unpackin' it all – the good, the bad, and the complicated – on this week's episode.

  • AI Took My Job... But Wrote My Essay?
    Jan 16 2025

    Buckle up, buttercup, because the robots are coming... for our brains! 🤖 This week on Them People, we're diving headfirst into the wild world of AI and how it's turning our schools and everyday lives upside down. 🤯

    Forget dodgeball, the real battle is against sentient toasters taking over the classroom! We're tackling the big questions: Will AI write our essays forever? 🤔 Will robots steal our jobs (and then offer to write our resumes)? 😨 And can AI finally explain why we had to learn algebra in the first place? 🤷‍♀️

    Join us as we explore the AI revolution, from the fear-mongering to the funny fails, and confess our own guilty pleasures when it comes to using AI for, ahem, "research" purposes. 😉 (Don't tell our teachers!)
