Brick and Birdy happily celebrate a belated Black History Month and then Women's History Month with the audacious and fabulous Harriet Tubman. What a journey, and what a journey of history NOT in the movie! Stay tuned for all the tea NOT shared in the movie that we cover as well. Half our episode is everything missing, but we still think Cynthia Erivo was perfect in this role! Due to all the tea we had to spill, this is...of course...a two parter. xD
