BlackFlix and Likka
by Lena and Jay + Friends
What do you get when you mix Black Twitter, Netflix, and best friends—who just happen to be in love—with good liquor, great TV, and the occasional guest co-host? Welcome to BlackFlix & Likka! Hosted by Lena & Jay—aka Bae & J! We’re your new fave couple with strong opinions and even stronger cocktails. Whether we’re cracking jokes, pausing to debate a plot twist, or pouring up another drink mid-rant, no genre is safe. From ratchet reality TV to prestige drama, we watch it all—and we have thoughts. Sometimes we agree. Sometimes we side-eye each other. Either way, it's a good time!RSSVERIFY
