    30: Media is Getting Messy

    What happens when the media we grew up trusting starts breaking down? In this episode, I reflect on what’s happening across media, from the Paramount-Discovery saga to uncertainty at CBS, CNN, TikTok and more. Shrinking newsrooms and billionaire ownership are reshaping what information reaches the public. More than ever, it’s on all of us to verify what we’re hearing, question headlines, and support the journalists doing independent, accountable work. If you’re looking for voices worth following, start with: Phil Lewis, Michael Harriot, Joy Reid, Don Lemon, Roland Martin, and Charles Blow. Time to say the quiet parts out loud! Let’s get into it.

    27: No New Friends

    Lots of researchers and news outlets are saying we are in a loneliness epidemic. People are losing friends, and more people than even say they don't have any close friends. Can we do anything about it? Or is it just the era of 'no new friends'?  Referenced article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/01/09/how-to-adult-friends-relationships/

    26: Where Are The Black Leaders?

    I reflect on the emotional toll of witnessing another Black life lost at the hands of police - Tyre Nichols. As this downward spiral of police violence against Black people continues, where are the Black leaders we can look to? Sure we have the NAACP, the National Urban League, Color of Change...but is the community at large really looking to those organizations or their leaders for guidance? Is the era of well known Black civil rights leaders gone, and do we need to try to get it back?

    25: Protecting the Culture

    I talk about how we should think more critically about the ways we expose Black culture in the name of satisfying an ever evolving demand for more and more content.
