Kerry Washington Came To Play!
Saturday, October 3, 2026 • Duration 01:24:02
Neighbors, @kerrywashingtonvideo came over and brought Oprah AND Tina Turner with her 😂 Y’all, she’s a good time!
We get into how she brings her characters to life, motherhood, and what inspired her to bring back her podcast, The Street You Grew Up On. We also talk about her new Netflix film Animals with Ben Affleck, and what she and Jamie Foxx are potentially cooking up.
Kerry shares about her ongoing search for her biological father, including how the person who helped identify the Golden State Killer became part of her search team.
And of course, I couldn’t let her leave without some friendly competition. We take a spin around the block with cultural trivia and face some dilemmas that’ll have y’all asking yourselves what YOU would do.
Neighbors, which of Kerry’s characters would you invite to your house, and which one are you keeping outside? 😂 Let me know in the comments!

Is Josh Johnson Our Funniest House Guest Yet?
Thursday, September 24, 2026 • Duration 01:22:51
Neighbors, @JoshJohnsonComedy came through and I'm still in tears! I’ve never seen anyone approach a charcuterie board with as much wonder and genuine gratitude as Josh Johnson!
We talked about the work it takes to write new comedy every week, how he got The Daily Show gig, and his friendship with Trevor Noah. Josh also shared the inspiration behind his tour, Josh Johnson’s Comedy Band Camp, and his HBO stand-up special, Symphony. And if you’re making something of your own, listen to what he says about doing the work and betting on yourself!
Now I need to know: what’s your favorite charcuterie board combo? Cheese, cracker, spread, fruit. Give me the whole bite in the comments!

Gen Z vs Millennials: Who Has More Game?
Friday, September 11, 2026 • Duration 37:48
What’s up, Neighbors?!
Game Night is officially here, and for the first one Serena Page, Kordell Beckham and Ashby Florence came over ready to compete.
We’re playing Choose Your Battles. You pick your opponent, then choose your category: Trivia, Brain Game or Skill. Win the battle, take a cube. Lose, hand one over. Simple enough… until everybody starts getting competitive.
Somewhere along the way it became Gen Z vs me, and let’s just say I had my work cut out for me.
Play along with us and tell me in the comments: who would you choose to battle, and in which category?
And if you had as much fun as we did, subscribe because Game Night is just getting started.

Jill Scott Says This Was the Best Night of Her Life
Saturday, September 5, 2026 • Duration 01:20:19
What's up, Neighbors?!
@missjillscott came to the house, and this one is soulful, hilarious, emotional and probably one of my favorite conversations we’ve ever had.
We talk about her return in Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married Again?, motherhood, making music, friendship, gratitude and the life she’s built for herself. Jill opens up in a way that is so vulnerable, so honest and so full of gratitude, there were a few moments that completely caught me off guard.
And then there’s the story about Prince, Stevie Wonder and what Jill calls the best night of her life. Y’all. Just wait.
There are even more moments from my day with Jill that we couldn’t fit into the episode. Join us on Substack for bonus scenes, extended conversations and more from House Guest: https://iamscottevans.substack.com/t/bonus

Vic Mensa Is the Energy We Needed
Saturday, August 22, 2026 • Duration 01:12:11
My brotha @vicmensa pulls up to the house and it's about as random and intentional as you could imagine!
Vic talks about the hard lessons he learned to arrive at this time in his life. Sobriety, religion, sex, self love, the music industry, being locked up - nothing was off limits. He also shares a pretty simple, yet powerful, gratitude practice that he says shifts his perspective in the moments he needs to refocus his mind most.
We also talk about the incredibly popular social media content he's been making and how he's taking it to the next level with his own podcast The Vic Mensa Show and why he doesn't see himself as an activist. That's not to say he doesn't respond to the call to use his platform to lift up or challenge the perspectives of his community.
Oh and shout out to @kevonstage, the love we have for him is real!
Neighbors is it just me or does Vic seem like he's living in the middle of one of the best times of his life?

Da’Vine opens up about what life has looked like since winning the Academy Award, how she’s using that moment to create more opportunities for other Black women, and the mindset she brings into rooms with legendary actors and directors.

Omarion Comes Ready to Cut Up
Saturday, July 25, 2026 • Duration 01:13:58
What's up, Neighbors?!
@omarion pulled up and it felt like a visit from a cousin! This one was nonstop laughs from the jump, the kind of episode where we barely got through a question without cackling.
We got into the growth of B2K, how those brothers went from kids on stage together to grown men who genuinely root for each other's solo moves. The love between them now is real, and you can hear it when he talks about the new B2K music on the way.
He also opened up about being a father, and it's clear that role means everything to him. We talked about how he approaches romantic relationships too, and he dropped some gems on that couch.
His new album, O2 – Part 1, is out now, and we got into where his head was making it and what this new chapter sounds like.
And on a more serious note, we touched on where some of the people from his early career are today. Real reflection, no names needed.
Neighbors, what part of this one got you? Let me know in the comments.
