Hosts Frenchie, Nika, and Wes cater to what their generation wants to hear while being considered the “oddballs” of the bunch. They're unafraid to speak their truths how they see fit. Tackling topics that push the envelope is their bread and butter and they offer listeners a seat at the table. They are not your usual cup of tea nor are they here to be, but you can't resist taking a sip.

Word on the street is Elon Musk may very well be purchasing one of the world's most influential social platforms, Twitter, for 44 Billion Dollars!
We noticed many people commenting through social media about how happy they would be if they even had a fraction of that and decided to talk about it in this weeks Under Our Umbrella Segment.
What is your happiness rooted in and how much of a role does money play in your day-to-day happiness?
