Summary

hi besties! in today's episode we talk about a subject we've been asked about quite a lot: what was it like growing up Samoan? we talk all things family, cultural values, and all the ways the school system (and capitalism in general) lets down our people -- in regards to Samoan men in football! we've grown up to be so proud of our Samoan heritage and are so excited we get so share a tiny slice with y'all :) especially because we never felt represented in media (other than The Rock lol) so getting to meet and see so many of our Samoan fans means a lot to us - got me ugly crying alllllready lol

Also @Universe take this episode as our official request for Dwayne The Rock Johnson to be a guest on our show for Samoa Flag Day! We'll even let him perform his song! :)

All new episodes will go up on Tuesdays from now on!

You can also follow our personal accounts! @deisontait / @drewafualo

Love y'all so much <3333
