Hello, this is Rachel McElroy. Hi, this is Griffin McElroy. And this is wonderful.

Okay, this episode is going to be lowercase w wonderful. It is not the product that Rachel and I

usually supply for you. Instead, we are very, very happy, very pleased, very grateful to be able to

do a feed drop of an episode of Fantai. We probably haven't talked about Fantai enough on this show.

It's relatively new to the network. It is. But it is a spectacular show. And they talk about a lot of

the kind of art and culture and music that we enjoy. And so we're happy to have them with us. Yes,

I am very again cannot thank Jarrett and Trevelle, the creators of the show and Laura, the producer for

allowing us to run the episode that you're about to hear. Every episode is so insightful. I've

actually, as we were recording this, I was just listening to the Tyra Banks episode this morning

because they're like, they're like real professionals like out in the world. They're talking about

this kind of thing. They're real professionals. And they I have I have learned a lot since I started

listening to the show. And it is that makes it sound like a drag. It's not. It's also extremely

funny. The episode that you are about to hear, however, is not like the rest of Fantai. They are

discussing the events of the past week and the murder of George Floyd and the escalating

police violence against black people and black communities in this country. And Rachel and I

felt like the best thing for us to do this week is step out of the way and do whatever we can to

amplify black creators. Go subscribe to Fantai. Go listen to the rest of the catalog.

There will almost certainly be say, if I know the listeners of this show looking at their

catalog, like one of these episodes is going to have a subject or person that is near and dear to you.

And while you're at it, do whatever you can to find ways to donate your time and money, whether

it's to like a bail fund, there are lots of links going around to a national bail fund, which

will share in the episode notes or donating directly to protesters on the ground on the front line.
