A Peaceful Sunset ,

I Love This Podcast

Grateful for the opportunity to tune in, to heal with and be apart of Mama and Mary’s storytime.

Killer bee the third ,

Generational differences

I love the honesty in their dialogue while still remaining respectful toward each other. You can point out that as mother and daughter they have different opinions, but their tone toward each other never changes. This is very kind, loving, and honest conversation.

The mother shares what her life was like coming from a family of mostly black fishermen and also addresses current events affecting the black community. Very interesting points of view. There is a lot of good information here. I will continue to listen. ♥️
