Hey people! We were excited to talk about some of our goals for this year. We've decided the idea of "resolutions" is out! A goal is just and aim and that's all we are trying to do this year. We hope this gives you some ideas or maybe some inspiration :)
Hi guys!! Welcome to season 4 of Full Moon! We are so excited to start off this season talking about our favorite show, Euphoria. If you aren't watching it, this will definitely convince you. Euphoria is a true gift to this world, with Zendaya leading an unbelievably talented cast, amazing costuming, art direction and just, just everything (TW: Euphoria deals with tough topics including drug abuse, sexual abuse and mental health issues.
Today we are talking about female ICONS. Princess Diana and Kristen Stewart's unbelievable portrayal of her in the film Spencer (and why we will never watch it again), and of course Taylor Swift and her second-coming of "Red" Taylor's Version & the All Too Well short film that also WRECKED us.
Aside from the charm and extreme talent that is Timothee Chalamet, Dune as a whole is a movie we would both gladly watch again! The entire cast, the directing and cinematography, the storyline, and the star wars similarities are enough to make this film a cinematic masterpiece. There may be some slight spoilers so steer clear if you wanna go in blind until AFTER you watch. Then come join us for a summary check out this episode :)

EMERGENCY EPISODE FULL MOONERS. Harry and Meghan's Bombshell Interview with Oprah is out & there was little that was held back. Listen to our thoughts, realizations, and feelings about the entire situation. It was sad, believable, unbelievable and damning to the royal family, but we think a hard pill that NEEDED to be swallowed.
Me and Gab are back with the topic mostly coined by millenials as Adulting. As two young women in our late 20's this idea of being an adult is.. confusing to say the least. We Definitely are adults, but what does that even mean? Join us as we try to figure that out. We'd love to hear what it means to you to be "Adulting". Hope you enjoy this episode :)
Here us out, we get it, finding a hobby as an adult is hard but, it's also very life-enhancing. Making time to find something that you do just for YOU is so important for your mental health. Maybe you go back to something you did as a kid, or try something new. Whatever it is, we promise your cup will be FILLED after and make the rest of your day that much better.
Red Table Talk is a talkshow hosted by Jada and Willow Smith, and Jada's mom Adrienne. They are known for getting deep, not shying away from hard topics and letting it all out. Olivia Jade recently came to the Red Table for her first interview since her and her parents involvement in the college admissions scandal came to light. It was ballsy for her to pick red table as the place she first spoke, but kudos to her. However, we have some thoughts in the episodes a whole and why it might not have been our favorite Red Table episode.
We're back! We took a little holiday break but we're for Season 2 of Full Moon! And what better way to start then chatting about the hot show of the end of the year, Bridgerton. Today we talk one of the most popular Netflix shows of 2020. We swoon over the Duke of Hastings, discuss the diverse cast, what we think the season lacked and what we hope will be there in upcoming seasons. We also end the episode with who we think will be Critics Choice winners as nominations have recently come out. Hope you enjoy!
On the last day of 2020 we want to talk our generation, aka Millenials. Our bunch gets a bad wrap to say the least and today we want to defend their case bc well, we love them. We also talk about Gen Z and how we think they are the trailblazers we've been waiting for.
Today we wanted to talk about a problem that we have seen become RAMPANT in 2020. Cancel Culture. We talk about what it is, when it is warranted, when it is not (most situations), and what we can do instead of classic cancel culture to call out people/things that are problematic.
Today Gabby and Malaika discuss arguably the biggest upset of 2020, Covid 19. A topic we're all over hearing but can't be left out. Both of us have been personally affected by Covid and feel strongly about how important it is for this virus to be handled with as much care as possible. In this episode, we discuss our experiences, the measures we take to be safe, and how we are not here to judge, but believe it's important we all continue to wear our masks to slow the spread. We are FAR from perfect but at the end of the day, Covid is a lot of unknowns and we should all continue to do our best to protect ourselves and each other.
In today's episode we went back to our "On Our List" roots and talk about the shows we are LOVING right now! This kind of episode will make an appearance every so often, because discussing shows and movies is definitely up there on our favorite thing to do. If you need your next show recommendation, today's episode is for you!
Today we're back with Part 2 of " Growing Up Black In America" with our FIRST GUEST, Zuberi! Two Tampa Natives, Malaika and Zuberi discuss their very different, but at times parallels growing up in the hood and the suburbs of Tampa, FL. This conversation was not only enlightening for the three of us, it was fun, and honest. When we thought of this idea, Malaika wanted to bring on another black person to share their experience because the more stories we ALL hear the more opportunity to reach our full moons and Zuberi DID NOT disappoint. We are so proud our first guest was this young, intelligent, funny, black man. Please enjoy Part 2 of Growing Up Black in America!

Soooo, It's almost the end of November and the election is still a pretty big discussion. We chat about how happy we are about the new President-Elect Joe Biden, where we were when we found out, and what we hope for the future of the U.S. All in all we agree we've still got a longgggg way to go and A LOT to do.
Everything looks different in 2020, and the holidays are no exception. But, magic and joy the holiday season brings will hopefully restore some happiness in all of our lives! Join us as we talk about why Thanksgiving Day is superior to Christmas Day, our favorite holiday movies and more!
After a stressful week, we wanted to keep it light and talk to you guys about an app we are LOVING, TikTok. TikTok is a social app where users can create and upload their own videos of singing, dancing, comedy, DIY, or literally ANYTHING you can imagine. We go into why we think it's the best app yet, some of our favorite creators, and while it may be a primarily Gen-Z focused this app is definitely fun for everyone of any age.
I think it is safe to say that 2020 has not been so nice, and coincidentally we have been working on not being so nice too! Well, we are still nice but what we mean is we want to stand up for ourselves more and not let our voices fade into the background.
Malaika and Gabby discuss the importance of exercising your right to vote in the upcoming election. They also talk about why you should make an informed decision and how they feel about the current state of the country from the human to human perspective.
