This one features Cameron Gray, my artist comrade from Birmingham, AL, based out of Ames, IA. wherein we discuss family and longing, villainy, the beauty of antiheros like Damian Wayne and Logan, the beautiful game of basketball and its pantheon of orishas and demigods.

We recorded this one on Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Day. this wasn't one of those pedantic episodes—we're not spoon-feeding you factoids about MLK—you should've been studying MLK. 

we covered broad ground conceptually. this one was about everything from "integration into a burning house" to the State and its grudge against Black families, COINTELPRO, and its role in the BM vs. BW gender war. we gon' learn ya.

This time we welcomed our first guest to the podcast—my partner Rae Fehring. wherein, we talked about our inner children, who we were before we became gendered. which is to say, who were we before we became westernized. who were you, who are you when you're not the figment of some late 19th century Western "ethnologist's" depraved imagination?

this one was more ideological maroonage. more critical vivisecting of Western thought. more Africana ways of knowing.

This one was really a reflection on Black women's purported withdrawal from political saviorism and an invitation to use this time as maroonage time. 

The subject isn't Black women necessarily, it's maroonage. it's fake gender splits and the 19th century white dudes and chicks that created them via crackpot ethnological race/sex theories.

Welcome to "Brothers Gon' to Work It Out," where we dive deep into thought-provoking discussions and explore a wide range of topics. In this episode, host Daron "360" Richardson takes you on a journey through the concept of libidinal economy and its profound impact on our daily lives and societal structures.

Daron360 gets gritty and talks about the many layers of lies that we tell ourselves to omit the truth for our own growth.
