Cake and Kombucha: Recent Episodes
Kelechi Ezie
Cake and Kombucha is a sophisticated and ratchet, informative but entertaining, naughty but nice take on politics, reality TV, and one woman's weird interactions with the world. Hosted by actress and writer Kelechi Ezie.
Mike Pence's familiar lands on his head in the debate, Donald Trump receives cutting edge treatment for Covid while the rest of us perish, and white militia groups try to kidnap the governor of Michigan. Tory Lanez might finally get deported! This is just a week in the news, no embellishment needed!
This episode starts with a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman, may he rest in peace.
We'll then delve into the Jessica Krug scandal (Rachel Dolezal's Afro Latino North African Cousin).
Lastly, Trump has apparently said disparaging things about the military...just like he already has for years in public. LE SCANDAL!
