Attention! This is not your typical Let's Talk Bruh episode!

On this week's episode we collaborated with David Ryan Castro-Harris, the Host of This Restorative Justice Life Podcast, for a conversation on restorative justice and accountability.  We talk to David during Part 1 of our collaboration about his work with restorative justice and what that looks like. When you finish listening to Part 1, go over to This Restorative Justice Life Podcast for Part 2 where we get a little more personal with the times we've been held accountable for some of the harm we've committed in relationships and in our community. Got it? Ight bet, let's get it then.

In today's episode we bring back an OG return guest of the show, Zach Nunn of Living Corporate.  Living Corporate is a digital media network that amplifies the voices of Black and brown folks at work.  In our conversation with Zach we talk about the recent performative uptick in corporate D&I initiatives during the pandemic and following the uprisings last summer. Zach talks about maintaining his values through this process as "all money aint good money".  And in typical LTB fashion we bring it back to the personal and ask Zach how he's been balancing work, parenthood, being a husband and still have a full time job outside of Living Corporate.

In today's episode we link up with Ryan Ken! If you've been on the internet at some point in the last year, you've probably seen their Tik Tok videos go viral and make it to your timeline at least once or twice.  Ryan is extremely talented and their brilliance shines through by pulling off something very difficult in comedy.  They're able to challenge and pushback against societal norms when it comes to masculinity, gender identity / performance, and race while still being very funny. Ryan humblebrags a bit in our conversation about how they've only been doing comedic writing and acting for less a year (wow) and near the end of the conversation Ryan shares with us what divesting from patriarchy means for them.  Tap in.    Check out clips from this episode on our YouTube page:

This week's episode is about 3 years in the making.  If you remember in the early Let's Talk Bruh days, we reviewed a documentary called, "The Feminist on Cellblock Y" and in that episode we interviewed the producers of the film Contessa Gayles and Emma Bordeaux. Fast forward to now and we finally have the opportunity to link up with one of the central figures in the documentary, Richie Reseda, and talk about his experience leading the program featured in the documentary called Success Stories.  On today's show, we also speak to Indigo Mateo, one of the co-founders of Question Culture alongside Richie. We dig into her upcoming project "Single Player" and what it means to divest from patriarchy in her art and in her life overall.
