Non Prophets Podcast

Stephen and Franqi chat about all the things going on. Love these episodes as a nice little time capsule into where the Non Prophets are and when. Big things are coming and we would love for you to be a part of it! Give it a listen, a good review and a share pretty please!!

If you can listen to only one episode, sit down with this one! Franqi and Stephen are on a quest to learn how to stay mentally healthy. Both Franqi and Stephen have gone through a lot of trauma that has been manifesting itself in various ways through life, and especially through the pandemic. 

In this episode, Franqi and Stephen sit down with Ally Maz; the author of Girlvana, yoga teacher and entrepreneur, to discuss some of their early life traumas, how they have tried to deal with them in the past without help, and where they currently are on their mental health journey. Ally provides excellent insight into how to deal with those traumas, how to move forward and how we can all become masters of our own mental health! 

Give it a listen, and please let us know what you think about it. If you like it, give it us a lil comment, share it with all the people and subscribe!! AND MAKE SURE to give Ally's book a read in this link right hurrrrr!

Joanna Briley hops on to chat with us about the Black Women in Comedy Laff Fest, a comedy festival in New York City that showcases Black women from across the country. Although it is still in its early years, the festival is already gaining attention from industry nationwide. Give this episode a listen and learn a little bit before the festival blows all the way up!

Tola Lawal is one of the most impressive entrepreneur / philanthropist / hustlers we've had the opportunity to speak to. She has created a network and mentoring program for Black girls to get experience in large corporate and arts-oriented environments so they are exposed to new opportunities and new networks. It's a truly revolutionary way to "reach back" and we LOVED speaking with her. 

Give it a listen and DO NOT FORGET TO SHARE!!!

Gab Bonesso is such a ray of sunshine! Her musical comedy act tours around the country's elementary and high schools to teach kids about bullying and empathy. She is so wonderful and you should definitely give this one a listen!

Pat and Lo are maybe my favorite people ever! While weed legalization gets on its way in New York, WOCC is working to make sure Black women have a seat at the table. Traditionally wealthy white entrepreneurs are the ones who move in once legalization takes place (ie Denver), and these guys are working to make sure the promise of equitable distribution is realized. 

We LOVED talking with Pat and Lo AND we are starting a monthly (in person!) comedy show with WOCC in Bushwick on July 22nd. Give it a listen, support WOCC and come laugh with us in July!

Just Franqi and Stephen catching up! Talking about the big opportunities that have come from this podcast, what is to come (and what secret projects we're working on) 

Also, Stephen accidentally eats a 300mg edible....

It's Earth Day baby and we're talking about dirt!! It's the least talked about environmental issue that everyone should know about. It's how we feed our people, and it has effects on the water we drink. 

Proper soil management is the only way we will be able to move forward as a people (assuming we want to eat), and you should give this a listen to get a taste of why it is so important. 

Mary Chambers is on the council of regenerative agriculture for the Sierra Club and she's a big ol wealth of knowledge. Give it a listen, share and tell your weird uncle about it!

The Heavenly Center was started by Scott Storch and Joe Schrank to use cannabis to combat drug addiction. There are so many rehab facilities out there, and the work The Heavenly Center is doing is truly remarkable! There recidivism rates are the lowest in the area, and they do it all through weed baby!! 

We get high, and Nick and Joe school us on the benefits of rehab through cannabis. It's a great listen... So listen! 

Then give it a share / like / comment / tell your mama!
