'Dope Queen' Pheobe Robinson Makes Park Slope Her Home

PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN -- Pheobe Robinson won't have to travel far to get to her shows at Kings Theatre next week. The "2 Dope Queens" podcast and HBO star has moved into an apartment in nearby Park Slope, reports Apartment Therapy.

Robinson and her boyfriend bought their new space over the summer. The 34-year-old told the lifestyle blog that living in the neighborhood had become a goal since she moved to the borough at 17 years old. The comedian and author attended Pratt Institute.

"I've always wanted to live in Park Slope," Robinson said. "I'm just a Brooklyn girl."

Her new 1,139-square foot apartment was designed by her, her boyfriend and their friend Karen Asprea, the blog reports.

Robinson is one half of the popular comedy podcast "2 Dope Queens," which recently was turned into an HBO special. She and co-host Jessica Williams are slated to perform at Kings Theatre next week, with shows Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
