Marriage Is Slavery

Leslie Jones went viral this week after telling interviewer Ziwe that marriage is legalized slavery, tradwives might as well be handed a whip and chain, and advising all young women not to get married. This from a woman who has been publicly complaining about not being able to find a boyfriend for years.

SugarTits and I covered Leslie’s inability to find a man a couple of months ago — the “I am the table” era — and now we’re back for the update. She’s done the full logical lap. Can’t find a man, men are the problem, marriage is slavery, your dad should’ve raised you to be nobody’s wife. All bases covered.

The real highlight of this video though is Ziwe — who spends the entire interview deadpanning the most passive aggressive questions imaginable at Leslie while Leslie slowly realizes she’s being roasted alive and starts to crack. By the end Ziwe asks “do you feel good about this interview?” and the answer tells you everything. Here’s more from Bearing.

Ziwe & Santos: Out Of Sync

Ziwe Fumudoh sits down with George Santos for a groundbreaking interview about his time in Congress, Nicki Minaj, Drag Race, white collar crime, why Gen Z loves Trump, his forthcoming book (??), and if he ever plans to run for office again.

It’s not exactly hard-hitting journalism, as billed, but it is quite hilarious, and occasionally zingy.

Showtime used to carry Ziwe’s show, but canceled her in April. She now carries the show — irregularly — on her own YouTube channel. Her full name is Ziwerekoru Fumudoh. She’s a comedian, the daughter of Nigerian immigrants, based in New York City.
