Fayida Jailler is without a doubt one of my favorite people of 2021. Fayida is a YouTuber, educator, activist, linguist, and travel curator. Fayida's channel "Freedom is Mine" is fun and informative content about the African Diaspora worldwide. I would love to go on one of Fayida's tours and visit the communities in South or Central America that she talks about. The number of gems dropped in this episode has to be a record.

The first time I heard Siaji Otieno aka The Kikombe speaking I was blown away as I knew without a doubt that I had to bring him on the podcast.

This is a beautiful migrant journey that includes Eastern African countries, similarities between university systems in Anglo-Eastern and Western Africa, journalism influences, Thai connect, and documenting our lives.  The Kikombe has to be back for more!

Ep 96: We Need To Start Documenting Our Stories ft Siaji Otieno

I have known today's guest for close to a decade back when I lived in Texas. Nalasi Mendy always struck me as a simple yet fun-loving gentleman whom I could crack jokes with but I never dug into his background. After I left Texas for New York I began to realize that there was a lot more to Nalasi that included being a volunteer, father, brother, Migrant ... that I had to get him on the podcast and I am so glad that Nalasi accepted my invite. I got to realize how I had been pronouncing his name wrong all these years and learn so much about his country and place of birth in this amazing episode.

EP 88 : A Place Where Your Leg Sinks Into The Mud ft Rodney Jehu-Appiah

This is another first for the podcast. I am so honored to present the first cousins to appear as the guests of the podcast. Amaka Abara & Jennifer-Anne Stodel are proof that lots of immigrants don't do cousins, we just do brothers or sisters. Their bond is strong and they are truly a team. They create together, manage together, and grow together. This was a blast of a conversation to have with them. Be on the lookout for #parloursessions hashtag. It's theirs and you can catch one of their events that way especially if you're in Nigeria.   Don't forget to invite your friends and loved ones to join us.

Laudelina Martinez opened my eyes to the world of art in ways that haven't been done before, from her name to defining art, Nuyoricans, and life. Art is beyond everything that I had assumed it be, it is part of our life.
