Look under your seat… it’s a new show!
We’re taking you back to weekdays at 4pm with Kellie Carter Jackson and Leah Wright Riguer, two historians, best friends, and Oprah obsessives. Now, it’s time to pour through the archives to relive and rehash the most iconic episodes from the decades-long run of the Oprah Winfrey Show.
From book club controversies to diet fads and wars with the meat industry, conversations about police brutality and sexuality… and of course big giveaways… YGAP! will treat Oprah as the historical, social, and political force that she is — and have have lots of fun.
As Kellie, Leah and their guests recap each show, they’ll put the show in critical context, and ultimately explain why Oprah will always be the Queen of Talk.

With Dr. Oz very much in the news — and our listeners very eager to hear our thoughts — we get together to discuss what to make of Dr. Oz’s very questionable track record, and Oprah’s role in giving him a platform.
