Absent Black Fathers: Featuring Ty Clone
(TW: parenting, sexual assault, Holocaust, slavery)  *Apologies - audio quality* How does a father figure shape you? What determines a good leader if morals are subjective? How deep can the iceberg of influence go? In this episode, Jaq and I are curious about the impact one label, and how it can be felt through one's lifetime. The impact of an action can be felt throughout generations. How will your footprint affect another's life?

Mental Health and the Black Community (And Other Stuff) Pt. 2
(TW: mental health, rape) In this episode, we revisit a bit of the previous episode with a more *clears throat* focused take on the topic with some slight hiccups in this one. The best part is that we now have into music created by Tyrese himself! Feel free to continue the conversation and add any critiques!

Mental Health and Black People (And Other Stuff) Pt. 1
(TW: mental health, suicide, death) Does the color of your skin suggest that it can protect you from your own mental health, or is it a barrier? Will our mental health lead to triumph or tragedy? Listen in on this podcast and discuss where your mind goes when you think of these questions. Debate, agree, and critique what we have to say. The point of the podcast is to open up the floor to different ideas and potential solutions to the overwhelming amount of mental health issues that arise in the black community. Let’s talk!
