This episode, we look at an iconic friendship — and an epic road trip. In 2006, Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King drove from California to New York together. Of course, they turned it into an episode for the Oprah Winfrey Show. We look at their friendship, what it says about the bond between Black women, and of course what went down on the very long drive.

Our guest for this episode is Brittany Luse, host of NPR’s It’s Been A Minute.

You Get A Podcast is hosted and executive produced by Kellie Carter Jackson, with co-host Leah Wright Rigueur.
