Shirah (Self-Made Millionaire at 18)

Shirah Benarde is the founder of Nightcap, the viral drink spiking prevention scrunchie that went from a high school idea to a Shark Tank deal with Lori Greiner to over $10 million in sales. She was 17 years old when she pitched on national television — and somehow wasn't even nervous. In this episode, Shirah takes us through everything: getting brutally bullied in high school, how her brother became her co-founder, the full behind-the-scenes of Shark Tank (is Mark Cuban hot in person???), and Lori’s involvement in NightCap today We talk about real drink spiking stories, what to actually do if it happens to you, their iconic Forever 21 collab, and what it really costs to build something from nothing when you're that young. Shirah is fantastic and by the end of this episode you will never go out without a Nightcap again!

Rachel Lindsay (Reality TV Royalty & Pop Culture Icon)

Rachel Lindsay is reality tv royalty and a pop culture icon. She was the first Black Bachelorette, a lawyer, an author, a podcaster, and a lovely person all around. She came in third on Nick Viall's season of the Bachelor and has really been through it all on and off camera. In this episode, Rachel takes us behind the scenes of the reality TV world and breaks down the entire Summer House mess. We talk about West Wilson's obsession with looking cool through Black culture, the pattern of fetishizing Black women, why Amanda was mute at the reunion, and whether or not Ciara Miller will return next season. Rachel is exhausted by how long Bravo is dragging out this drama but, like all of us, will be tuning into the bonus episode tonight. We get deep about Rachel's upbringing, being a lawyer, and her journey to reality TV, including whether she thinks it's good for society. This episode is perfect for the reality TV fans (and haters), Summer House watchers, and really anyone looking for a good laugh with the girls. Enjoy, sweeties!
