Deandre Johnson played basketball at Regis University and the University of St. Francis. After dealing with much adversity early on in his playing career he enjoyed a successful final season, earning all conference honors.

I speak to Deandre about being the first in his family to go to college, the adversity he faced early on in his playing career, his week as a log truck driver, the importance of specialized skills and knowledge in the modern economy, faith, fasting, the state of modern hip hop, and more.
