This week on We Playin’ Spades, the Turquoise Table goes technicolor when TS Madison struts in—unfiltered, unbothered, and ready to run the whole Backyard Boogie.

From the first card drop, Maddie is giving full “mouth of the South” energy. She’s breaking down her rise from internet legend to Hollywood mainstay, recalling what it really feels like to get that call from Beyoncé (!!), and sharing the OG wisdom she picked up from Mama Ru herself (RuPaul, if ya nasty) — the kind of game that’ll shift your whole hustle if you’re paying attention.

But then in comes the curveball: Rodney Chester, Mr. Noah’s Arc royalty, who decides it’s his turn to talk across the board — to everybody. Rodney is giving unsolicited strategy and saying things that probably should’ve stayed in the drafts. TS tries to reel him in… but honestly? It’s too late. The table is fully in cancel-adjacent territory.

Meanwhile, TS keeps reminding us what makes her a force — she’s lifting others up every step of the way, pulling the next generation through the door instead of shutting it behind her, and dragging anyone who thinks she’s gonna dial it back to fit in.

The cards? Chile…barely a factor.

The chaos? Peak.

The shade? USDA prime.

The laughs? Unholy.

It’s loud, it’s legendary, it’s a LGBTQ+ royalty takeover — and the Turquoise Table may never recover. Pull up, if your edges can withstand it. 🃏🌈🔥

This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick and Courtney barely get a word in as comedy royalty Jackée Harry and Kym Whitley pull up to the Turquoise Table and immediately take over the Backyard Boogie.

From the jump, it’s nonstop talk-yo-shhh energy—classic Hollywood stories, unfiltered shade, and the kind of auntie humor you cannot rehearse. Jackée and Kym trade wild memories from Detroit to Def Comedy Jam days, break down how Hollywood really works, and prove why they’ve been legends for decades: fearless, funny, and absolutely ungovernable.

The Spades game? Almost secondary. Between eating chitlins with Aretha Franklin, reneging accusations, OG advice from icons like Diahann Carroll, and wagers that spiral completely out of control, this episode turns into a masterclass in Black table talk.

It’s loud, it’s legendary, it’s lovingly disrespectful—and it might be the most Black-ass game of Spades we’ve ever played. Pull up… if you can keep up. 🃏🔥
