On this episode we talk to author, poet, comedian and lecturer at San Francisco State University, Shawn Taylor. We talk about the mystical, Jamaica, A Tribe Called Quest, Shawn's book "Big Black Penis" and how to tell stories about faith without being dogmatic. Shawn is a delight and this is one of my favorite conversations of the season.

Thanks to The Shout Storytelling show in Oakland, CA for audio of Shawn's story, "Grandpa Triumph's Ring."

Produced by David Crabb, Rachel Hamberg, Morgan Jones, Jesse Rogala & Tyler Dorson.
