This episode features Gritz & Biscuits co-founder, NPR’s “Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me” regular, and curator of the new philosophy section at Lore Bookstore in LA’s historic Leimert Park — my brother, Alzo Slade.

A former philosophy professor and stand-up comic, Alzo brings his sharp wit and deep curiosity to a conversation about what connects us, how we respond to our differences, and why he’s rethinking how journalism and storytelling reach the people he loves. A curious, hilarious instigator, Zo fills this episode with equal parts fun and philosophy.
