About the Podcast (and its hosts)

Whether you’re genuinely curious or being nosy, we appreciate you.

INTRODUCTION

MEET YOUR FABULOUS BLACK & AFRO-LATINA QUEENS/CO-HOSTS!

Priscilla and Norma are sisters (Norma is one year younger).

Both sisters were born in New York and are of Dominican and Jamaican descent.

Priscilla is the second oldest of four siblings (five siblings, if you count the family dog, Momo). She is currently a practicing attorney in New York, though ironically, she is not a criminal law attorney. Outside of adulting and podcast duties, Priscilla also has a knack for making Tiktok videos about her life. She has garnered an impressive social media following — just by being herself (or a more obnoxious version).

Norma is a recent law school graduate (Class of 2022). She became true crime obsessed after watching The First 48 and Deadly Women as a teenager. When she’s not in the books, you can find Norma dancing in the hallway with Momo and listening to music.

OUR PODCAST NAME

Our podcast name is inspired by the popular AAVE phrase: “It’s the [fill in the blank] for me.” This phrase can be used in various ways. For example, it can be used to compliment someone or even to express outrage over a situation, which is what we were going for here. There’s so many other ways it can be used, but you get the gist! It’s the VERSATILITY for us!

ABOUT THE PODCAST

The Black community is littered with Jane Does, Jonbenets, Elizabeth Smarts, Natalee Holloways, Nicole Browns, Chandra Levys, etc. — the difference? When tragedy strikes the Black community, the coverage is seemingly nonexistent. Our podcast, It’s the Mystery for Me, takes listeners through the murders (unsolved and solved), mysterious deaths and disappearances of Black women and Black girls in America. We take turns presenting one case per week (the person who is not presenting on a particular week is in charge of asking questions). In addition to reviewing case details, which we derive from our source materials, we also throw in some sisterly banter and legal insight. In sharing these cases, our goal is to ensure that Black women and Black girls can be seen and heard as loudly as their White peers. Tune in to a new episode of ITMFM on Tuesdays.
