We have a jam-packed episode for you!

This week we are joined by Naana and Obie of The Work Bae Pod where you can clock out with two coworkers turned workbaes whose conversation goes beyond the water cooler. Join them as they navigate everything from pop culture to challenging each other to step outside their comfort zones. 

For Politics as Usual, they discuss the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the resignation of Hala Halabi, a US diplomat who spoke out against the US policy towards Palestine. The conversation explores the role of strategic representation in politics and the challenges of authenticity. The discussion also touches on the importance of activism, the need for systemic change, and the power of collective action.

Antoinette then interviews Christy Kirchhoffer from the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee. They discuss the concept of tax resistance and its various forms, as well as the motivations behind it. They also touch on the power of collective action and the importance of community support. The conversation highlights the need to reimagine our relationship with money and resources, and the potential for change through resistance.

For Pop Culture, Shanti takes a break from her break to talk Drake and Kendrick Lamar. They discuss the history of their beef, the diss tracks that have been released, and the deeper meaning behind Kendrick's lyrics. They explore the spiritual and symbolic elements in Kendrick's music and how he is exposing Drake's flaws and lack of authenticity. The conversation also touches on the impact of diss tracks and the importance of clever wordplay and delivery. They explore the potential directions Drake could take in his response and the impact it could have on his career. They also touch on the controversy surrounding the use of the N-word and the challenges faced by biracial individuals. The conversation ends with a discussion about surrendering to God and finding one's true self. Join us.
