Would you rather be clever or a fool? I would rather be a fool. It may seem odd, but listen to this story and let me know if you agree :)

Ep. 96: Fresh Figs by Elsie Spicer Eells (Portugal)

Welcome to THE COACHMAN. I’m Omarr — storyteller, truth-teller, and your host. Every week, I take short stories from over a century ago and bring them back with soul. I read ‘em loud, clear, and with perspective — then I break ‘em down through the eyes of a modern Black man. Think history, culture, real talk… and a few f-bombs when needed. This ain’t school. This is storytelling that hits different.
