We Playin' Spades

Wondery

Welcome to the backyard boogie, where the stakes stay high, the jokes land sharp, and the cards don't lie! We Playin’ Spades brings together comedians, actors, singers, and viral legends for unapologetic matchups around the now-iconic turquoise table. Hosted by Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee—two pros at talkin’ slick and playing slick—this show ain’t just about the game. It’s about the culture behind it.

Each episode, a new set of celebrity guests pull up thinking they’re ready. But once the cards get dealt and the table starts talkin’, egos get checked and true colors show. From wild overbids to busted bags, the drama is loud, the laughs are real, and the gameplay is as cutthroat as it is hilarious.

And it doesn’t stop at the cards. Nick and Courtney stay pulling folks’ cards too—calling out bad hands, messy moves, and even messier stories. By the time the last book drops, somebody’s been humbled, and a little tea’s been spilled.

Whether you're here for the strategy, the side-eyes, or the smoke, We Playin’ Spades brings the culture to your screen—one hand at a time.

    Paris Sashay and Alex English Prove That the Gays Know How to Play Spades | 39

    This week on We Playin’ Spades, the Turquoise Table becomes the unofficial headquarters of gay comedy as Paris Sashay pulls up with writer and comedian Alex English as her spades partner — repping for the gays and proving, loudly and proudly, that the community does in fact know how to play spades. From the first deal, it’s nothing but jokes, chaos, and cultural correction. Paris gets into her former life dating men and running them for their money, why she eventually retired from men altogether (the men ain’t the same men no more), and how she never really had to come out of the closet because her family only had one condition: the woman better be a baddie. No press conference. No announcement. Just pure aesthetics. Alex breaks down the heckler that completely changed how he approaches stand-up, forcing him to expand his material and divulges the very specific way you can tell he's “not that gay.” Nick delivers the most unhinged pee-in-the-bed story ever told at the Turquoise Table, which somehow turns into a therapeutic breakthrough and then pivots into shaming Courtney, Paris, and Alex for their embarrassingly weak knowledge of Black cinema. Receipts are pulled. Legacies are defended. All four comedians bond over bombing on stage, the universal pain of a bad set, and why punching down is lazy comedy. It’s one of those episodes where the jokes are reckless, the lessons are real, and everybody leaves slightly more exposed than they planned. The Gays…they’re playing spades.

    SAG Awards, Geese Fights, and the Comedy Hustle with Lavell Crawford | 38

    The episode kicks off with hosts Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee dealing out the jokes right away, welcoming comedy legend Lavell Crawford and his cousin, road manager, and Spades partner, Floyd "Big Black." When asked about the last time he got whooped at the table, Lavell shares a wild story about playing Spades at his uncle's house while surrounded by massive, stallion-sized dogs that made him too nervous to focus. As the game heats up, the "Cut the Deck and Spill the Tea" questions bring pure chaos. Lavell boldly claims he writes great jokes while getting it on and passionately explains why he would rather fight 50 geese-sized men than risk getting kicked by a man-sized goose. Dropping some serious OG wisdom, Lavell shares the best advice he ever got from Rudy Ray Moore ("Use everything you got"), recalls struggling in front of 4,000 people in Oklahoma City, and reflects on career highs like winning a SAG Award for ‘Breaking Bad’ and walking past Oprah. Lavell also gives props to the new generation of internet comedians like King Bach for their daily hustle, then gets vulnerable about his weight loss journey and the wake-up call he had after eating 35 lemon pepper wings from Wingstop.

Things take a hilarious turn during the "Deal With It" segment when the table debates a wild relationship hypothetical: a 30-day no-arguing rule where the person who starts the fight owes the other $5,000.

    Pull up a chair! Wood Harris and Steve Harris just sat down at the Turquoise Table, and they brought an absolute masterclass with them. The kind you rewind to hear twice. The kind that becomes your new daily mantra. The kind that proves real recognizes real. Between hands, the brothers walk Nick and Courtney through the reality of navigating the Hollywood machine without losing your soul. Steve gives a powerful breakdown on why he refuses to play the "schmoozing" game, while Wood takes us back to his legendary NYU drama days—including the wild story of getting expelled in his final year! Plus, Wood shares a surreal encounter with Prince that will completely change the way you look at counting your birthdays. Things get spicy when the "Black Card Revoked" questions hit the table. Nobody is backing down as they debate R&B legends, hip-hop trivia, and exactly who holds the crown as the greatest actor of all time. And don’t you dare click out early! Because the Harris brothers came to play. The sibling banter is undefeated, the trash talk is elite, and you have to see if they can actually back up their boasts at the card table.

    Jazze Phizzle Came to Talk His Shizzle with Jazze Pha | 34

    Ladies and Gentleman! Jazze Pha has entered the Backyard Boogie, and he brought them “isms”. The kind you quote later. The kind that become captions. The kind that make you say, “This is a "Jazze Phizzle…product-shizzle!" When he pulls up to Turquoise Table, Jazze walks Nick and Courtney through the insane catalog of songs he’s produced and sung on, from club anthems to R&B staples, while giving flowers to MC Breed for putting him on early and helping launch what would become one of the most recognizable sounds in the game. Along the way, he drops one of the wildest industry stories you’ll ever hear — somehow combining The Nutcracker, Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, Don ‘Magic’ Juan, and a hotboxed elevator into a single moment of chaos and legend. Things get spicy when Jazze and Nick get into a friendly-but-serious debate over the true kings of R&B and hip hop and nobody is backing down quietly. And don’t you dare click out early! Because Jazze closes the episode by serenading the Turquoise Table with a song you probably didn’t even know he sang. Vocals come out, nostalgia becomes activated, and the card game becomes irrelevant. Oh Boy!

    Boss Moves & Bad Behavior at the Turquoise Table with Mercedes Moné | 33

    This week on We Playin’ Spades, the Turquoise Table turns into a global wrestling summit as AEW superstar Mercedes Moné pulls up with her spades tag-team partner Mina Shirakawa — and from the jump, it’s boss energy meets pure nonsense. Mercedes talks CEO life and puts Nick onto some real business game, including the OG advice her cousin Snoop Dogg gave her about playing the role you have to play to get where you want to go. Meanwhile, Courtney fully commits to the bit by debuting her wrestling alter ego, The Jiggalator, complete with a live demonstration of her signature move (and we think AEW would approve). Things go left when Mina and Nick hit a legendary lost-in-translation moment, while Mercedes and Mina lowkey start cheating by talking across the board in Japanese. Wrestling icons Eddie Guerrero and Manami Toyota get their well-deserved flowers, because legends must be honored — even in the middle of spades trash talk. And in true Nick fashion, he somehow flirts his way into offering Mina a green card, while Courtney pauses the game to give the table a full vocabulary lesson no one asked for, but everyone needed. Cards are played. Languages are mixed. Rules are ignored. It’s an international spades collision — Turquoise Table style.

    Boundaries, Baby Oil, and Brutal Honesty with Moniece Slaughter | 32

    This week on We Playin’ Spades, the Turquoise Table gets messy, reflective, and just a little bit reckless when songwriter and reality star Moniece Slaughter pulls up with her Spades partner, stand-up comedian Kaneisha Buss — and the Backyard Boogie immediately goes left. Moniece wastes no time getting real. She talks about almost getting cancelled, what being celibate has taught her about herself (and everybody else), and her complicated feelings about living part of her life on reality TV. She opens up about cutting off fake friends, protecting her peace, and draws a very clear line in the sand when it comes to one specific dealbreaker: a hairless man covered in baby oil. Hard no. Absolutely not. Across the table, Seattle brawler Kaneisha is in pure table-talk mode. She shares her deep love for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, talks about why she doesn't believe in therapy, breaks down why it’s not the size of the boat but the motion of the ocean, and describes why she is an out and proud dead beat mother. It’s funny, it’s uncomfortably honest, and everybody’s standing ten toes down. Proceed with caution.

    Reading the Table, Not the Comments with Dulcé Sloan and Malcolm Barrett | 31

    This week on We Playin’ Spades, the Turquoise Table gets real opinionated when comedian Dulcé Sloan pulls up to the Backyard Boogie — confident, clear, and not here for internet strangers. Right away, Dulcé is talking her talk. She breaks down why she loves herself too much to read the comments, why she’s holding out for a husband who’s equally yoked, and what really happens when a comic is bombing onstage (she has no chill and even less sympathy). She also reminds the table that she already made it crystal clear on New Year’s Eve with Don Lemon: she is officially dating no more broke dudes. Period. Her partner, The Boys actor Malcolm Barrett, keeps the table laughing with some painfully real Hollywood talk — the pros and cons of having the longest résumé of someone who’s not currently in a leading role, plus he and Nick take a trip down memory lane about working together on a show that was filmed in a wildly questionable warehouse…where an adult film was also being shot. Somewhere between the side commentary and the accusations of being raggedy, Dulcé lets us know she’s deep in her K-drama bag and Nick drops a little money game about licensing Korean shows for U.S. audiences. It’s funny, messy, and very on-brand — Jokes told? Innumerable. Lies told? Not a one.

    Rotten Tomatoes Snobbery & Senior Citizen Smash Lists with Kelly ‘K Dubb’ Walker | 30

    This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick and Courtney welcome Kelly “K Dubb” Walker to the Turquoise Table — and from the jump, he’s letting the chopper sing. K Dubb announces a personal boycott: If your movie doesn’t score 79% or better on Rotten Tomatoes, he will not be seated. Tyler Perry? Tubi? He wishes them well…from a distance. He also drops one of the wildest takes of the season: while most comedians are dodging cancellation, K Dubb is inviting it — just once — so people finally know his name. When the table pivots to “who you riding with in a fight,” K Dubb leaves the rest of HaHa Mafia on read and picks comedian Erica Duchess as his spades partner and tag-team warrior. The vibes morph into a mini group therapy session as Erica shares the grounded, loving advice she gives her boys, while K Dubb admits the wisdom from his mama might be the reason he’s like this today. And speaking of mamas...the conversation swerves into AARP thirst traps, with everyone confessing which Hollywood geriatric they’d like to get some arthritic lovin' from. And just when he thought he was leaving the Backyard unscathed, Courtney reveals K Dubb's Diddy-adjacent history that takes the table out completely. The jokes get reckless. The truth gets messy. Anybody could catch a stray. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    TS Madison Gets ‘Cozy’ at the Turquoise Table | 29

    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. 🃏🌈🔥 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
