Angie and Info celebrate their Season 1 grand finale with a live podcast at NYC’s Stadium Goods. The hosts talk about their reasons for creating the podcast, Eminem’s Pro-Colin Kaepernick Anti-Trump freestyle, Harvey Weinstein, and sexual harassment in hip hop. But it’s the IRL listeners who bring the positivity back with their list of “good news.”
Ep 9: Hurricane recovery and politics has Info stressed out, and Angie wonders if her friend is one of the few people who need more weed not less. The duo plan a live podcast taping, share life lessons from two very different bullying victims...And then lighten the mood with all the dumb things they did "for the D."
Angie tells a story about Yo Gotti’s childhood, and the related lesson she’s now teaching her teenage son. The ladies talk about the Bronx Cinderella, Cardi B., and the plus side to not being famous. Miss Info wonders if Angie’s touching story about Nick Cannon’s good heart, is enough to change her mind about his turban. And finally, for their IRL Recommendations of the Week, Angie and Info talk about putting down their phones, and....freezing their ass?!
Angie and Info talk about how strength shown in the wake of Hurricane Harvey (and other acts of Climate Change Karma) can make waves with and without a hashtag. While some celebs stunt with donations on the ‘gram, Angie spends her free time tracking down unclaimed money for her friends. Meanwhile, Info raves about Dave Chappelle’s war against shitty cellphone videos.
Angie has the gall to confront Info about her shady phone etiquette, and then admits to stereotyping one of the greatest female emcees of all time. Miss Info, on the other hand, needs help shaking her current-events-induced depression. The two women debate whether media coverage of hate-speech converts new haters.
Angie and Info discuss listener feedback and Angie is hilariously unreceptive to criticism. Info asks if there's a limit to how "cool mom" they are willing to be. Both hosts discuss career threats and missteps. And Angie reveals the twitter flex of the year.
Angie and Info talk about R.Kelly and wonder if it’s possible to separate an artists’ gift from their curse, their genius from their crimes. The friends realize they can’t watch TV together and announce their first twitter “Ask Me Anything” session.
Is an apology worth less when it comes after getting busted? Angie and Info debate that after listening to Jay-Z's confessional 4:44 album, and discuss other reactions from 50 Cent and Future. Angie shares her latest self-improvement projects while Info wonders if her friend is a masochist or just crazy.
Angie and Info talk about the passing of Prodigy...what the late emcee meant to them personally and to the world overall. They also talk about the highs and lows of the BET Awards, the second coming of Joe Budden, the Tupac biopic, and defensive Migos interviews.
EP 1: Angie and Info introduce In Real Life to the world by discussing what it is that makes them click with each other, how they are different, and what topics they can't wait to tackle with their guests...spoiler alert: New album promotion is not one of them.
