  • Good Podcast

    I’ve been enjoying the shows since the beginning. Two great voices, topics, and now guests. I’m recently disabled, since 2023, and live with physical & mental illnesses. The only thing I suggest as Imani become more aware of how she often talks for longer periods than cohost & guests. I also do this in daily life, but learning to be more conscious of others.

What a delight to also be introduced to Mychal through this pod. I love the energy of these two together. These are the types of folks I’m always searching for in real life - so genuine, kind, thoughtful, aware. I... more
