I Fell in Love with Myself | Episode 87

Episode 87 of She Said It First is peak Jerrilyn and Lynee’—equal parts chaos, comedy, and “girl, let me tell you what happened.” The ladies kick things off with a petty Olympics update: Jerrilyn’s irritated with everything (including her house making paranormal noises), and Lynee’s dragging Corey Holcomb, Aries Spears, and every “same text, different font” comedian who insists on talking slick about Black women while looking like hypertension personified. Between swollen eye canals (a new medical term?) and DMs full of mucus-sounding voice notes, the two roast these men so thoroughly they could file it under community service.

From there, the episode pivots into Valentine’s Day—its messy Roman fertility-festival origins, overblown modern expectations, and the universal heartbreak of receiving absolutely nothing from someone who claims to love you. The ladies keep it hilariously honest: if your partner only performs romance on February 14th, that’s not love, that’s emotional DoorDash. And yet, in the spirit of the episode title, both hosts reflect on the joy of gifting themselves, loving themselves, and choosing partners who show up the other 364 days of the year.

Because it’s Black History Month, the duo highlight Black brilliance—from Gladys West (GPS queen!) to the Super Soaker creator Lonnie Johnson—while celebrating the magic, versatility, and sheer audacity of Black womanhood. They wrap with a real talk moment about mental health in the middle of political chaos, reminding listeners that laughter is medicine, protecting your peace is essential, and sometimes the most revolutionary thing you can do is choose joy… and maybe “whoop they ass” when necessary. Classic She Said It First: funny, real, righteous, and wrapped in unapologetic Black girl energy.
