8. Do It Anyway with/Rachel Garrison

What up tho, peeps! For our first ever LVLS "in-studio" guest, we got the opportunity and pleasure to chop it up with Writer/Investor/Advisory Board Member, Darren Griffin, in candid conversation reminiscent of dialogue almost exclusively exchanged within the safe-haven of the barbershop. Darren is both inspiringly thoughtful and sincere on topics ranging from cancel culture, Popeye’s Chicken, to the shedding of one's societal beliefs misbestowed upon black men. Darren's candor certainly helped create a moment that we all might agree was refreshingly therapeutic.  Where find Darren Griffin: Twitter: @dgriff123 Instagram: @dgriff123 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lvls/message

7. Write Into a Renaissance with Darren Griffin

We felt it necessary to sprinkle in short 10-20 minute episodes under a new format titled 'LVLS Accelerated.' Clocking in at 12 mins., EP. 6 was inspired in part by countless conversations with people within our circle and namely the late rapper, entrepreneur, and community activist Nipsey Hussle. The episodes intro music is a snippet of "Hussle & Motivate," from the 2018 Grammy-nominated best rap album 'Victory Lap.'
