In the 13th episode of the "Once a Stranger" podcast, Alec's guest is Kassaundra Shanette Lockhart.  The two discuss her childhood growing up with her mother and grandparents in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Lexington, NC, the different migration patterns that make up her hometown, working inside the world of big time college athletics, launching a local news outlet for Davidson County, her family accepting a Congressional Gold Medal on behalf of her grandfather who was one of the first Black men inducted into the Marine Corps, and more.  If you stick around long enough, you'll learn how to properly order BBQ when in Lexington-you need this advice in your life.
