Awesome!

This is the podcast I didn’t know I need to listen to. But I’m glad I am.

Difficult conversations with fun people

This podcast is sometimes tough, it showcases experiences of black Americans living in a racist society. The podcast however is hosted by witty people who don’t make light of it as much as pointing out that we as a culture still have a lot of unpacking to do about racism and treatment of black people. Great content!

Powerful and timely - must listen podcast!

Deeply personal stories. Tamu and Aaron have an excellent rapport. Their stories and experiences are raw and honest. And they manage to make me laugh out loud too. A must listen to podcast.
