Customer Reviews
Y’all back!!!!
Thank God, I've missed this show!!!!
One of my favs
This podcast exemplifies excellence in legal commentary and social discourse. It meets the objective of informing us, entertaining us, and offering a captivating blend of legal analysis and cultural insight. It’s dope. That’s just my opinion. She tackles topics fearlessly. I love that. She breaks down the law into digestible segments and makes the concept of law accessible, like Obama did politics during his administration. I can listen to Eboni all day. The production quality is also top- notch. I play these episodes on the way to my office in the morning. Dustin is an amazing bonus. The duo makes it a true gem and I hope they record new episodes soon. Before finding this pod, I dreaded my morning commutes in LA traffic. More episodes pleeeeeease!
Mind blowing and eye-opening
As a man of not so much color (white), this podcast has completely changed my view of the world and refocused the lens in which I see the world, especially in the US. I think every white person should listen to this podcast. You may personally have not had a hand in creating where we are as a society today, but you (at a minimum) have the responsibility and civic duty to educate yourself on how we got here. Eboni and Dustin talk about what it's like to live in America as a person of color, the issues facing the black community, and it has literally changed my life. Educate yourself. Listen. Its our responsibility. Bet on black, I certainly am. Much love to you both. Thank you for creating content that can truly bring about change.
