Welcome to DWB where two Caribbean-ish black millennial professionals unpack the problems of life over drinks! Tune in as we discuss things like bad high school memories, adulting, being black and young in the workplace, a bunch of things going on in popular culture, all the the problematic stuff going on in the world, and pretty much anything we want to talk about.
