EPISODE THREE

In this episode, I start the first part of my conversational series about COVID-19 (the coronavirus), a pandemic effecting the world. But more specifically, I discuss it as it relates to Nashville, TN. What is the Music City doing to remain safe during this trialing time? How can we prevent the spread of this virus when engaging with the public? What does Mayor John Cooper's reopening plan entail?

I hope everyone listens to this episode in its entirety to remain informed about COVID-19 because I truly believe information is power.

Be safe and stay healthy. Together we will get through this.

Episode Two

On Saturday, April 11th, Lifetime channel premiered "The Clark Sisters: First Ladies of Gospel" movie. Since they have been a significant part of my childhood and adulthood, I thought I'd give my feedback on the movie and invite someone special on to discuss it with me. This special guest is responsible for introducing me to them and a longtime SUPER FAN of the Clark Sisters. She saw them live! My special guest is MY MOTHER. If y'all want to hear her in more episodes, give this a thumbs up and comment below "Bring Yo Mama Back" and I'll make that happen.

I'd love to hear your opinions about the movie so comment below. What did you like or dislike? How would you rate it? Did Lifetime and the producers do a good job?

Follow me for more episodes. Give this a like and comment if you enjoyed this second episode of the season.
