About the show

Keke Palmer has questions, and she’s not afraid to ask them. On 'Baby, this is Keke Palmer', Keke sits down with artists, actors, entrepreneurs, experts, and creators shaping the culture. These aren’t just promo stops or viral moments. They’re honest, layered conversations about identity, relationships, reinvention, success, and growth. Pop culture moves fast. Opinions move faster. But nuance takes time — and that’s what Keke makes space for. Because culture is more than a headline. It’s a reflection of who we are. And baby… this show holds up the mirror. New episodes every Tuesday.  Watch or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Follow @kekepalmerpodcast on Instagram & TikTok.
