KevOnStage and That Chick Angel break down the wildest stories of the week, starting with the viral Trash Can Girl TikTok saga, a North Carolina neighborhood trash can feud that ended in a backyard brawl and the internet taking sides. Then they debate Kelly Clarkson's "Birdgate" controversy after she called out a Brooklyn store for refusing to sell her a mechanical bird, raising the question: should celebrities use their platforms to complain about small businesses?

The crew also gives Jason Weaver his flowers after he got dragged for not knowing his own star power -- from ‘The Lion King’ to playing young Michael Jackson, his legacy runs deep. Plus, Kendrick Sampson's hot take about wanting to have babies with his homegirls without romance sparks a hilarious debate about modern relationships, and Tobey Maguire officiating his ex-wife Jennifer Meyer's wedding to a Nigerian billionaire heir leaves everyone speechless. Stick around for Angel's sneeze-pee incident and her legendary quest to have God teach her the piano.

In this episode of Here's the Thing, KevOnStage and That Chick Angel react to Shane Gillis's viral 'Saturday Night Live' monologue about women's gym attire and the double standard in comedy. They debate whether controversy only propels white male comedians forward while Black women comedians get overlooked for the same stage — and Kev names more than 20 Black women comedians who deserve an SNL slot. Plus, Ray Charles's legendary takedown of Elvis Presley resurfaces, a deep dive into Nate Bargatze making $82 million as the biggest touring comedian in the world, WNBA Finals predictions with Angel Reese and the Atlanta Dream facing the Golden State Valkyries, the US government planning a public firing squad execution and what it says about America's history of spectacle violence, and Kev delivers a viral-worthy impression of an angry Trump supporter that you have to hear to believe.

Franchesca Ramsey sits down with KevOnStage and That Chick Angel to break down her 20-year career as one of the original internet content creators. From making hair tutorials on YouTube in 2009 to going viral with "Shit White Girls Say to Black Girls" in 2012, winning YouTube's NextUp competition for $35,000, and making $45,000 in a single month off one video, Franchesca shares the unfiltered truth about what happens after virality hits. She opens up about bombing her ’SNL’ audition, landing her first TV writing gig on ‘The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore,’ suffering from severe imposter syndrome in a writers' room alongside Cord Jefferson, and selling seven television shows to networks like Comedy Central, Netflix, and Nickelodeon -- none of which went to series. Franchesca also gets real about why she went back to a day job and why that's not giving up on your dream, her return to standup comedy after a 15-year hiatus, why virality is not a business model, and how turning 40 gave her the confidence to finally own who she is. Plus, she talks about her content creator masterclass, The Brand Is Strong, and why she stopped waiting for permission to make her own content. #KevOnStage #ContentCreation #YouTubeOG #ViralContent #TVWriting #Comedy #StandupComedy #CreatorEconomy
