Ammria ,

It’s the versatility for me!

This podcast series is flawless, it takes you through a roller coaster of emotions. Reminds me of that mid-week facetime call with your best friend that helps keep you rooted throughout the rest of the week. It touches on politics and everything else within the culture.
