Best of: Becoming Michelle Obama

In honor of the new HBO specials, we’ve been revisiting our favorite 2 Dope Queens podcast episodes. Of course, we had to close this series with the ultimate queen — Michelle Obama. Phoebe and Jessica talk to the former First Lady about her new memoir Becoming, her hair journey, her struggle with the “Angry Black Female” stereotype, and how to raise bold women. Plus: Bono or Billy Joel? Listen, and be inspired.

And stay tuned for some brand new comedy shows coming soon from WNYC Studios, including an all new season of Sooo Many White Guys dropping March 19. That’s right! Phoebe’s back in the studio. Don’t miss it.
