In this episode of "Talking with..." Daniel sits down with Roy Nemer of Mundo Albiceleste. They discuss how Roy came about watching and supporting Barcelona and Argentina.

This week, we discuss the use of the N-Word amongst Black people and why it continues to be used. Should it be abolished? Is there a deeper reason why it still needs to be used in everyday life and in rap music? We also touch upon the Ocean Gate submersible situation involving the Titanic and our thoughts on that.
