    Just Be Cool Episode 004

    Reggie and Paco host the fourth episode of the Just Be Cool Show (#JustBeCoolShow), a new project highlighting positive news and inspirational people. In this episode, the Just Be Cool guys interview Kevin Esch and Latonya Young. Kevin and Latonya forged a special bond when Kevin ordered an Uber ride after an Atlanta United game a few years ago. Latonya picked him up and drove him home. During the ride, Kevin learned Latonya was unable to register for her college classes because of some outstanding fees due. He paid the fees days later, allowing her to register for classes. The two have stayed in touch ever since and Latonya just graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Science degree from the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies at Georgia State University. Of course, Kevin was there. Their story should inspire all of us to treat each other with kindness and compassion. #JustBeCool

    Reggie and Paco host the third episode of the Just Be Cool Show (#JustBeCoolShow), a new video project highlighting positive news and inspirational people. In this episode, the Just Be Cool guys interview Sarah Parker, who produced a dance interpretation based on a Ted Talk. The dance and the Ted Talk both convey a message of unity – people are more alike than they are different, and we should use that fact to bring us together rather than drive us apart.
