@Luzh ,

Deep takes

Nobody can craft an argument like Bo. Even before I started watching American Football I enjoyed his perspective. His take on American culture is fascinating and his ability to rattle off facts and figures off the dome is second to none.

Love Foxworth Fridays but the recent episode with Michael Smith was the best in some time

Agryblackman ,

Great listening

Don’t know if you read these but great show. I’m out here in South Africa (born and raised) and your insights and thoughts on blackness and how the rest of humanity perceives it are relevant even to me.

Seth in Botswana ,

Bomani is great

Bomani has such an authentic, original, critical voice. i'm a Botswana and have followed Bomani wherever he finds himself(his hiatus was quite sad). You can listen Bomani talk about anything, at anytime, for however long and you will be entertained, and more importantly, educated. He doesnt try to act young and hip, just himself, and proudly, black.
