Vindictive To Victorious With Donald Simmons Jr.

This episode is about the time I nearly helped an old classmate of mine from high school, with an errand he wanted me to execute.

This is my “Paradise Hotel” recap. I couldn’t even finish it, because I had so much to say about the show!

This is another solo episode from me. The topics we discuss in this installment of the podcast are black creatives being dismissed by our white colleagues; social media; “trolls” on the internet; my fair observations on Azealia Banks; my support for Zayn Malik; Jake Paul; my black “elder” also wanting “white approval”; and there may be more topics, that fleet my mind right now.

This is the first episode of the podcast where I am the guest. I decided to look inward this time, and address things I have never said anywhere else. The details said in this episode are all exclusives. Identities have been hidden to protect subjects’ privacy.
