After a LOOOOOOOONG break between episodes, your host Kevin Reigh is back with another ridiculous conversation. This time up, Kevin's cousin Jason from NYC pops in for a conversation about cooking, Jamaican food, and a little unscripted and unvarnished relationship discussion. Also, Kevin and Jason discuss what happened to their childhood dreams of marrying Jamaican women.....uh...this episode is also...not always...uh...the most progressive space....

As referenced in this episode you can listen to 'Cook' here.

My dear friend Nandie Myers joins me to chat about our mutual love of TRASH TV! Nandie gives us the low-down on her top 4 trash tv programs that help her (and maybe you) cope with the COVIDIAN times we are living through. Plus we talk about Nandie's love for Prince (they still calling him that???) Harry and scorn for all things Megan Duchess of Sussex.
