As Ziwe season 2 moves along, episode 7 titled "Empowerment" brings another round of intriguing guests and challenging conversations. Ziwe Fumudoh, the titular host, is known for her unconventional interviews that often touch on some of the most uncomfortable topics while keeping things hilariously entertaining. Empowerment theme continues to be the guiding principle of this week's episode as Ziwe is joined by three guests who all bring their unique perspectives and experiences to the table.

First up is actress Amber Ruffin, who talks about her successful writing career and the challenges she has faced as a black writer in a predominantly white industry. From being pigeonholed into writing about race to fighting for fair compensation, Amber doesn't hold back as she shares her journey with Ziwe.

Next, Ziwe welcomes writer and comedian Nicole Byer, who is known for her work on shows like Nailed It! and Wipeout. Nicole talks about her own empowerment journey and how she found her voice through comedy. She also opens up about her experiences with body shaming and the challenges of being a plus-size woman in Hollywood.

The final guest is Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who brings a powerful and passionate perspective to the conversation. AOC talks about the importance of representation in government and how she has used her platform to advocate for marginalized communities. She also shares her thoughts on the current political landscape and her hopes for the future of the country.

Throughout the episode, Ziwe continues to challenge her guests with thought-provoking questions and conversations that push the boundaries of what is typically discussed on late-night talk shows. From discussing the intersection of race and gender to unpacking the complexities of power and privilege, Ziwe explores some of the most important issues facing society today.

As always, the show is filled with hilarious moments and unexpected surprises, proving once again why Ziwe has become one of the most exciting new voices in comedy. Empowerment might be the main theme of this week's episode, but it's the candid and uninhibited conversations that make it a must-watch.
