2025
Join bloggers Kid Fury and Crissle for their weekly podcast covering hip-hop and pop culture's most trying stars. Throwing shade and spilling tea with a flippant and humorous attitude, no star is safe from Fury and Crissle unless their name is Beyoncé. (Or Blue Ivy.)
As transplants to New York City (Kid Fury from Miami and Crissle from Oklahoma City), The Read also serves as an on-air therapy session for two friends trying to adjust to life (and rats) in the big city.
The Read is part of the LoudSpeakers Network and is published every week on iTunes, iHeart Radio Talk, Soundcloud & Stitcher.

"This is my favorite podcast. Fury and Crissle tell it like it is on the latest in pop culture and black excellence. Not for the faint at heart! My (adult) son and I cry laughing the entire show. We love their perspective on listener letters with an emphasis on sound mental health. "

"My absolute favorite podcast. Crissle and Kid Fury are transparent about everything good, bad, and ugly, and they are hands down the funniest podcasters on any platform. I can always count on them to lift my spirits each week. If you’re black and queer, this podcast is directly up your alley. I love them so much."
