    The terry mcmillan pod was the first one I listened to and it was a breath of fresh air. Plus they sampled brandy Sittin’ Up in my Room at the end so what’s not to love!?

  • Another winner from On Being Studios

    Found this podcast earlier this year. Sorry to find that it stopped in 2017. Season 2 on humor was helpful.

    Nice job Lily! Keep learning, doing and growing!
