Wellness and Self-Care are words and ideas that have become buzz worthy as of late. We are in a world where we are constantly connected to the outside world, where work, health, and lifestyle hardly ever combine for reasons some can explain and some can’t. My guests, Jason Marshall, Brent Birckhead, and Krystal Miller talk about all facets of wellness with ourselves as Black people, in our communities, and in our areas of work.

My college friends, Andre Webb, Elle Morris, and Michael O’Bryan and I have a conversation about education in cities, community education, and music and the scene in Philadelphia and elsewhere.

As this new year begins, we also see the ramping up of presidential candidates. My guest, D.C. native, Toussaint Tingling Clemmons and I talk about the candidates, what politics and these candidates mean to our broader popular culture, communities, and what we can to be better civically engaged members of our society.
