WELCOME BACK! it's been a rough couple weeks, as will be discussed, but we are right back at it. every once in a while, i want to provide a little break from the deep, super intense conversations i plan on having here.

that being said, welcome to the biweekly clown report! simply a list of things (clowns + clownery) that have been BOILING MY BLOOD; think of this episode as a Facetime vent sesh, a kiki if you will.

sit down, relax, listen and see if you can find something to relate to.

ENJOY!

AYO!

this week, i am joined by my little brother; the man, the myth, the legend. we discuss all things growing up Black in a white town, tokenism, covert vs. overt racism, and share some juicy stories in between.. ENJOY!!

Welcome to this space.

Here we are brutally honest, deeply real, and wickedly funny.

Authentic selves only.

Get in loser, we're healing.

SIDEBAR: In the name of being transparent, everything after that lil intro is one take. MEANING...that stuttering and inability to get my words out correctly in the first ten seconds? All me. Love it or leave it.
