[PREVIEW] Josephine Baker’s Memoir Fearless and Free (with Tocarra Elise)

Chelsea and comedian Tocarra Mallard dive into Josephine Baker’s newly translated memoir, “Fearless and Free.” They explore how she danced her way to global stardom, secretly worked as a WWII spy for the French Resistance (yes, she smuggled German secrets on sheet music), and built a legacy as groundbreaking as it was complicated. Plus, a deep dive into her controversial Rainbow Tribe and the memoir’s wildest moments—including a psychic rabbit’s foot and some truly questionable recipes.Trigger warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics, including abuse, suicide, and antisemitism.
