July 21, 2016 Episode 10 - Can I Live?
In light of recent events, we dedicated this episode to the many high profile shootings involving police. We dive into the impact this has had on our community and ways we can all make a difference to prevent this from happening in the future. It's always best to make sure we brainstorm solutions and calls to action when attacking these issues because it's become more than a matter of "hashtaging" our way to freedom.

July 03, 2016 Episode 8 - Delayed, But not Forgotten
ANOTHER ONE (DELAYED)! Sorry for the delay, life happens. However, this episode is a good one! We talk about the unfortunate loss of Game 6 by the Golden State Warriors. Hurt our hearts... HOWEVER, there was a lot happening in hiphop to make up for it. From Vic Mensa to YG's album Still Brazy. This was a good not that we didn't want to pass up, despite how delayed it is.
Thanks for bearing with us for this one!
