In episode 1, Michelle and Serena introduce themselves and talk about why they both decided to start a podcast and how they ended up coming together to create From the Root. They dive headfirst into a discussion on "Are you more Black, Queer or a Gender," to share their identities, and whether or not they identify with one part of their identity more than others.
