Episode 70: Entertainers are NOT Leaders
Gwen is back with VIP guest Ismael Abdusalaam aka @beatsboxingmahem to discuss the support of various Black male rappers for Trump45 prior to election day. We break down the impact of celebrity idolization on American culture and how the working class and middle class blindly follow people who do not have their best interests at heart or in mind. Gwen and Ismael explain the danger of Black success being limited to the entertainment industry and sports as portrayed in the media. Entertainers are NOT leaders.

Luv u!
Found you via “Destroy You,” but also listen to your extras, Gwen. I enjoy hearing often-enlightening observations but even more important you teach me, enlighten me. Keep on keeping on. E.
Had high hopes
Found this podcast because of I May Destroy You. Too much time spent on childish, irrelevant matters such as the wigs worn by the characters. Sadly, those featured on the podcast did not possess the range to discuss the TV series. The episode reviews were sorely lacking. The host missed so many key elements related to plot, character development, etc. The host thought she was saying something by stating that she watched each episode twice. Well, duh! That’s called preparation. Also, it isn’t wise to speak on topics you have no familiarity with - for example, if you don’t know what doxing is don’t say that it’s something that doesn’t have in the US. Overall, disappointing.
Zero judgement!!
This life is crazy and Gwen facilitates open and honest talk about it. Grab yourself a cup and sip on some tea!!
