Host John X and guests Garant L and Andrew Johnson cover a spectrum of topics including politics, cultural influences from celebrities like Puff Daddy, experiences of racial discrimination, and sports predictions. How identifying with Presidential candidates is this year's odd phenomenom. Media's prioritization of scandals and misrepresentations of African Americans for ratings. Personal encounters with prejudice, and the importance of critical thinking in political engagement. RIP Craig Mack.
