About This Podcast
Welcome to AA - Accountability Anonymous! We’re all hot on being progressive and the best versions of ourselves in public, but how accountable do we hold ourselves in private? “Wait… Am I Toxic?” is Fola and Rukiya’s safe space, where Black Brits can feel seen and take a break from cosplay adulting! Join us to talk about the real things we go through privately and the things we’d rather chew denim than share in public.
