1 Still Processing

Hosted by Wesley Morris and Jenna Wortham, they do a 360 dive into every part of the culture. Not only pop culture meaning television, film, books, music, but also the culture associated with work, dating, Blue Ivy's internet and how those fit together.

7 The Read

Hosted by Kid Fury and Crissle, this is the place where pop culture gets dissected and when necessary, read for filth. Whether they're stanning Beyoncé and Missy Elliott or dragging terrible politicians and other public figures, nobody who is in the wrong is off limits. Not to mention, the occasionally messy Listener Letters segment allows them to provide sound advice... most times.

8 Jesus & Jollof

Hosted by Insecure star, Yvonne Orji and author Luvvie Ajayi-Jones —two proudly Nigerian women— this hilariously honest podcast discusses "things they love, their stories, and life in general." If you're asking yourself, "why 'Jesus and Jollof?' Those are the two things they cannot do without. Besides, the other option was '2 Goat Queens.'"

10 Drink Champs

Hosted by N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN, Drink Champs is described as the "most professional, unprofessional podcast." Drinking aside, they allow their guests—who've ranged from the late DMX to Fat Joe to Cam'ron— to just have an raw conversation about any topic under the sun. From sports to music, it's all here.
