The Home Stretch

Apple Podcasts * Castbox * Radio Public* A Google Podcasts link should be here but I aint shit really*

Show notes:

Pandora submit podcast form - I guess Pandora really in this bitch I search #PandoraPodcasts an people posting links like people listen to podcasts on Pandora an everything lol

2 Dope Queens Michelle Obama episode - They didnt even make it to 50 episodes. As a purist the fact they did a comedy show an just republished the audio an (white) people really went up for this podcast was WILD. I did like the live show at Werk It but wished the guest wasnt a white man but really it was on brand for the event.

Purple Panties on Stitcher - This was so good and I am not begging for a second season, I will drag the podcast on social media until someone responds. This gets the best results. I wish I wasnt like this sometimes but you be asking nicely an they dont respond. Call that podcast team trash an someone signing in to set you right LOL (they still trash with communication though)

The Coco and Connie Show Linktree - I really liked this new podcast!

1. Hollywood in Color - Hollywood in Color is a new podcast telling the stories of the stars usually left out of entertainment history — the people of color in front of and behind the camera who have been representing for over a century. Host Diana Martinez has a PhD in film and media studies and has written for Slate, The Atlantic, and Women in Hollywood.

Produced by the Glimmerglass Opera Festival and the WFMT Radio Network, this show challenges ideas of who opera is for and who should create it. Host Paige Hernandez and contributor Tazewell Thompson discuss, question, and challenge what stories are told in the world of opera and how they may look in the future.

Let’s raise our voices and break some glass. 

4. Heat and Light - 1968 transformed life in the U.S. forever. Join us as we go deep into six lesser-known stories from that year, guided by people who were so affected they devoted their lives to studying those events. From the students who rose up in protest to American TV's first interracial kiss, and from the roots of Silicon Valley to the beginning of the end of the "traditional" American family. Host Phillip Martin is our guide, and remembers his own 1968 as a sixth grader in inner-city Detroit. Brought to you by The Conversation US, on the fiftieth anniversary of the year that changed America.

5. The Interview - Three individuals (Alex, Brian & Claire) are invited for a job interview that will change their lives.
