I kicked with my man and Indy photgrapher, Jake Moran to talk about the Indy hip hop scene and his latest project, "While They Slept" - which documents special moments with 25 Indy hip hop artists. 

Owner of Naptown Thrift and local Indy hip hop artist, Aaron Marshall (aka Double A) joins me on the mic this week to talk about Indy fashion and hip hop culture. Aaron shares his experience of being an artist in a city that has yet to establish a blueprint to national success and pivoting to become one of Indy's best thrifting destinations.

This is the first of many episodes exploring the sub-cultures of Indy culture.

Not only does he share his journey to the top of Indy's fashion scene, but also shares his honest and challenging perspective on Indy's fashion culture.

Season 3 is all about Indy culture, and Tiffany Browne of HistoricIndianapolis.com is the perfect guest to lay the foundation on how current Indy culture was impacted by happenings of the past. Hint: You may be surprised.

In this season finale, a driven and talented young man in Andre Harakas hops on the mic to share his journey from a college athlete to a founder and CEO of a ProBooks Sports, a tech company. Andre's history is here in Indy on the east side, and his future in Indy is looking quite bright.
