Since 2014, Kid Fury (who started out with the YouTube stand-up series “Furious Thoughts”) and Crissle West have been coming together for their weekly podcast The Read, covering current events, social justice, mental health, hip-hop, media, fashion, entertainment, and lots of Beyoncé with a critical, hysterical eye. Their best friend vibes are electric and their passion for pop culture is contagious. It’s like you’re tapping into their private conversations as they tear down celebs and the latest Da Baby drama with a sharp wit that brings needed criticism to the entertainment space. You don’t have to love hip-hop or even know who DDG is in order to be completely entertained by their banter.
Segments like Hot Tops, Kid Fury’s Sports Shorts! (sports updates that are always hilarious, seldom completely accurate,) Listener Letters, Crissle’s Couch, and The Read, where they almost poetically share their sharp opinion of the week, give the show a relaxed structure. The hosts are completely open about their lives (they just returned after a short hiatus for Kid Fury’s mental health) so you can be sure you’re getting authentic opinions, revelations, and stories about all their ups and downs. Episodes are long but can quickly start to feel all too short. If you’re new to the show and can’t get enough, consider yourself lucky: Like all these long-running shows, they have a deep library of more than 400 episodes for you to drown in.
