  • !!EXTRA EXTRA!! Friday Episode: 2 - White Saviorism

    We were so eager to get this podcast project started that we recorded some extra content just for our loyal audience. That would be you. In this Extra Friday Release Episode, we talk White Savior-ism, White fragility, and White Passing in the era of Black Lives Matter. These are conversations that need to happen. Watching your friends, your non-black friends, react to this moment can be interesting for some and trying for others. We break down these concepts and talk about how to spot them in others and yourself. We're all learning and prone to mistakes. The catch is to recognize when you're engaging in problematic behavior and correct it before it causes real harm, using the story of "Rene Bach's time in Africa" as an example of Savior-ism gone tragically wrong. We're so proud of our work and humbled that you take the time to check it out. Episodes released every Tuesday. Again, and as always, thanks so much for hanging with us as we unlearn the BS and relearn the good stuff.

  • Episode: 3 - FUNDING THE POLICE IS NOT DEFUNDING THE POLICE

    Throwing good money after bad never works. When you're up your nose in sh*t, the last thing you should do is open your mouth. Telling people that the way to better policing is to give them more money, more responsibility, more power, and that if we just give them "More Training" that will solve our problems is bass-akwards and ass backwards. In this weeks episode's MAIN TOPIC, we break down what the hell federal agents are doing in Portland and other cities and why they must leave. We also take a look at police gangs and why I had to type the phrase 'police gangs' and you're not actively loosing your sh*t that modern policing has been infected with Neo-Nazi and racists gangs. 

    Our show follows a NEW FORMAT now: 

    News Highlights of the week: What's going on? Thanks Marvin Gaye 

    Main Topic: Our Main topic

    Say Their Names: Where we update news of active open cases of police killings of unarmed people. 

    Activist Highlight: We talk about cool people doing great work in the community around justice and equality.

    Call To Actions: Where we update on Petitions to sign and causes to donate either time or money to, if you can. 

    Again and as always, Thanks so much for hanging with us and we Unlearn The BS and Relearn the good stuff.

  • Episode: 2 - DEFUND THE POLICE

    In previous Episode 2’s you might have expected the Clones to attack but in this “episode 2” we discuss another similar yet oppressive force, The Police, and why they need to be de-funded. More specifically, why we need to re-think the entire idea of American policing and how it’s OK to imagine a better system in which resources can be shared to make a more equitable society. We use the people’s budget LA as our jumping off point and we break it all the way down. Enjoy. AGAIN, thanks so much for hanging with us as we unlearn the BS and relearn the good stuff.

  • Episode: 1 - PERFORMATIVE ALLYSHIP

    There are many (first) episodes of podcasts but this one is mine. Rather ours. Wilson and Megan are here to discuss the topics you really want to talk about. Since the tragic death of George Floyd, our media space has exploded with  corporations and IG "friends" falling over themselves to show how "down" with the cause of Black Lives Matter they really are. But where is the line between acts of goodwill and anti-racism and performative or fake? We tackle this huge topic and more in this week's episode. AGAIN, thanks so much for hanging with us as we unlearn the BS and relearn the good stuff.
