Great history podcast
Love these stories, great host!
Love Them!
Thank you for bringing us the different variations of the Br’er Rabbit stories! Also love the insight after each story. More people should be listening to this podcast to learn about African American culture. When my nephew gets older, I hope to try some of Chef’s recipes with him.
