Hey, I'm Jackie's Thomas, the host of a brand new Black Effect original series, Black Lit.

The podcast for diving deep into the rich world of black literature.

Black Lit is for the page turners, for those who listen to audio books while running errands or at the end of a busy day.

From thought-provoking novels to powerful poetry, we'll explore the stories that shape our culture.

Listen to Blacklit on the Black Effect Podcast network, I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your

podcast.

The Black Effect Podcast Network is sponsored by Diet Coke.

I'm NK, and this is Basket Case.

What is wrong with me?

A show about the ways that mental illness is shaped by not just biology.

Swaps of different meds, but by culture and society. By looking closely at the conditions that cause mental distress I find out why so many of us are struggling to feel sane what we can do about it and why we should care. Oh, look at you giving me therapy girl.

Listen to Basket Case every Tuesday on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you get your podcast.

I'm Maria Konekova.

And I'm Nate Silver.

And our new podcast, Risky Business, is a show about making better decisions.

We're both journalists who we might as poker players.

And that's the lens we're going to use to approach this entire show.

We're going to be discussing everything from high-stakes poker to personal questions.

Like whether I should call a plumber or fix my shower myself.

And of course we'll be talking about the election too.
