  • Nice But Misleading

    I love the concept but the host and guest does not address topics at all. There’s maybe a couple mentions but podcast is mostly talk about their projects or an adjacent topic. There’s maybe were a couple episodes like the Meagan Markel episode I enjoyed because the guest stayed on topic (and she was funny) but the host needs to focus on the actual subject or highlight broad topics instead of specific individuals.

  • A Fantastic Listen

    Long time Medium Popcorn fan and finally getting a chance to check out Brandon’s solo venture. What a phenomenal podcast, I can not recommend it enough. The production is top notch and tremendous effort was done to bring light to little known figures in Black History.

  • History that’s fun to listen to

    So many incredible stories of people I wish we had learned about in school. And it’s told in a super accessible way that makes me listen to multiple episodes in a row when I’m catching up.
