Octavius Kahiya (who hosts Something Like It Fridays at 5pm) joins me to discuss his other show, the Afro-Amalgamation Podcast which is produced out of and hosted by UMFM but is an offshoot of the Afro-Caribbean Mentorship Program which Kahiya is involved with.

On the topic of podcasts, this episode of TGIFR also features a re-airing of an episode from the series Engage! Earlier this week co-host Caid Jones was involved in a tragic event and so in his honour I'm playing one of the episodes Jones and Josue Davi produced for UMFM. Originally published July 29, 2021, it's a conversation with the Executive Director of Sunshine House, Levi Foy. The podcast was a series focused on "the peo­ple and orga­ni­za­tions in our com­mu­ni­ty who have tak­en the ini­tia­tive to help grow and give back" and produced by the pair during the period in which the station was operating remotely.

My thoughts are with Caid's loved ones at this time.
