About this episode
We’re back with another IRL #TakeAways. The in-between audio-only podcast where Angie and special guests reflect on episode responses, takeaways, and highlights.
On this week’s #TakeAways we speak to Candice Marie Benbow who wrote the article “Irv Gotti’s ‘Drink Champs’ rant about Ashanti reveals the dangers when women say no” BEFORE Ashanti appeared on The IRL Podcast and then wrote “Ashanti’s ‘IRL’ interview offers a master class in standing in your power, which she released AFTER Ashanti appeared on The IRL Podcast.
Tune in as Angie and Candice reflect on Ashanti’s appearance on the show and chat about the nuances of taking the high road, carefully creating space for men to be accountable, and the importance giving women the courage to be honest.
