Join me and award winning writer Brian Broome (IG=@bbromb, FB=brian.broome.5) as we wax and wane about getting older, avoiding people for our mental health (and the inevitable post-social exhaustion when we can’t), and overcoming trauma.

Brian’s book “Punch Me Up to The Gods” is available digitally, in print, and audio on multiple platforms. If you can’t get your hands on a copy, you’re lying. In this debut memoir Brian navigates growing up Black and gay in a world that is hostile to both. Visit brianbroome.com for more details.

What a better way to close out 2021 than with verbal violence. Join Terry and I as he slanders catfish, and we talk about how The South is "different..." We also talk about how the common motivating factor in xenophobia, racism, anti-Blackness, anti-LGBTQ, anti-women, and anti-critical thinking is fear, and how you can organize against that fear to activate your communities.

Ray Smiling and I open things up talking about Tilda Swinton (if you don’t know, educate yourself) and how she is literally everything. So much so that she brings unlikely pairs together in the short “Tilda”, part of the series Khaki Is Not Leather. We then touch on getting film projects done during a whole panini press, and the processes they went through to get the job done being daunting but ultimately doable when you break things down into little passionate pieces. All this to sum up how absurd the world is, and the best art comes from being true to the absurdity of the human condition.

Real heady sh*t made simple.
