White Label American

What a year 2022 was, we have had the good, the bad, and the fantastic. To wrap up the year 2022 and officially come out of hibernation, I decided to have some of my New York/East Coast podcasters and friends join me to wrap up the year. We talked about Politics, Books, Music, Cultural Moments, Movies/Shows and everything in between that went down in 2022 from our perspective. It's a relaxed and informal atmosphere, with a bunch of like-minded folks just hanging out and having fun. You're invited to join in on the fun and hear what we had to say. If you're new to the podcast or a returning listener, you can also support us on Patreon for as little as $3 per month. You'll get access to loads of bonus content, and you can help us out by sharing our podcast with your friends and on your socials, and giving us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform. We really appreciate it!  Download the White Label American app for android if you haven't and share it with your friends https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.apps.n245148 Get your WLA Podcast merch for you and your loved ones https://vetclothing.com/collections/sponser-merch  Mimi Jacks https://www.mpropermimi.com/ Sasha Marguerite Cozy Chat pod https://smarguerite.co/ Jay Ray https://thelink.bio/queuepoints Corey Gumbs is the founder of The Black Podcasters Association: https://blackpodcastersassociation.com/share/ZfiwQEe4eHqbHb0A You can be a part of the show by sending your story via The Contact form on www.whitelabelamerican.com whitelabelamerican@gmail.com or leave a voice note via the website too.  

Yes, yours truly is this week's guest. Not only is Ashwin Gopi back in the studio, but he also took over hosting duties in order for me to appear as the guest. It was fun to be the guest and I'll be a guest again when I live-stream the 3rd year anniversary episode this Saturday. This conversation was the official beginning of the 3rd year anniversary celebration. I was expecting Ashwin to hit me with neighborhood questions, however, Ashwin said nah, and hit me with more amazing questions.  

Rudolf Ogoo Okonkwo is an adjunct professor at the School of Visual Arts in NYC teaching Post-Colonial African History, and a columnist at the Peoples Gazette. Rudolf has authored multiple books that include "This American Life Sef", "Children of a Retired God" & "Chimamanda" amongst many others. Rudolf is also the host of Dr. Damages, a political satirical show covering the African political space and holding officials accountable (most in Nigeria). Yes, Rudolf Ogoo Okonkwo = Dr. Damages.   Rudolf shares powerful stories about the Igbo culture that he is from, beginning with his name. Why his father may have decided to name Rudolf gets tackled, to sacred animals and why they have become scarce or possibly extinct in his hometown. The main thing for me was reincarnation, I had heard of it being talked about in an unserious manner across different ethnic groups but never before had I been face to face with someone who is incarnate of their grandfather. That experience of having to go through a funeral for the burial of the person for whom you are supposed to be his/her reincarnation. It's like attending your own funeral.   Rudolf breaks down the birth of his pen name Dr. Damages, how many tables he shook, escaping from IBB (former military dictator of Nigeria), arriving in the United States, meeting and marrying his wife. Did you know that Rudolf was in a band? This is one episode that you don't want to miss out on and will definitely have a Part II sometime next year.   Make sure that you download the White Label American Podcast App, available at the Google Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.apps.n245148 Watch Rudolf's weekly show and more by subscribing to https://www.youtube.com/c/DrDamages/featured https://twitter.com/DrDamages   As always feel free to send your feedback at https://www.whitelabelamerican.com/contact/   Support our work here https://www.patreon.com/whitelabelamericanpod  

Who was Houston Bred before becoming a YouTube and Patreon content creator? This is an introduction to the origins of one awesome creator that you would love to know. Houston Bred has some of the most unique name meanings amongst guests to have been on this podcast. Eventually, a college athlete, who never got carried away by her love for playing sports to the point where she wouldn't identify with her roots or her people. Taking the time to engage with communities around her, would open the doors of understanding to the dualities of being a Black American and an immigrant at the same time.   Houston Bred shared great advice for future content creators aiming to go on YouTube. I am telling you, don't sleep on this sister. We talked about music (has anyone been able to beat the podcast rules in this manner before?), some funny food talk, and a great discussion about different Black communities around the United States. It is good to have people such as Houston in the content space.   Judge Judy got to make her debut on the show via an honorable mention, opening another trip down memory lane for yours truly. A lot was covered in what may be quite a heavy-packed episode. Of course, we had plenty of laughs, I mean Judge Judy hello. Unconventional TV will never die, just try not to be the brand new me in America. Although, I shall secretly watch the 1st episode of my show when it's made and put on Bravo Network (hopefully produced by Houston Bred). This episode also makes me hungry for some Suya!   Time Stamps: Call to Action 0:00 - 02:31, Intro 02:41 - 03:14, Name Meaning 03:46 - 04:30, Part of Houston 7:16 - 08:05, Childhood 09:34 - 10:33, Favorite Sports Played 10:41 - 11:19, Favorite Childhood Memory 12:01 - 13:21, Teenage Career Dreams 17:28 - 20:06, Hobbies As An Adult 20:15 - 24:32, College 24:44 - 26:49, College Experience 29:00 - 30:45, Intermission 35:00 - 36:19, Coming Out of College 36:42 - 38:04, Embracing Content Creating 41:55 - 44:10, Advice to Newcomers 51:11 - 54:37, Biggest 57:37 - 01:00:18, Music 01:07:26 - 01:10:51, Cuisine 01:11:23 - 01:14:55, Final Q 01:17:55 - 01:18:42, Plugins 01:18:50 - 01:19:31, Outro   Tune in for more of Houston Bred, catch her live Tue-Fri 9:30 am EST https://www.youtube.com/c/houstonbred   Support our work, buy us a cup of Ko-Fi - https://ko-fi.com/whitelabelamerican   Become a Patron - https://www.patreon.com/whitelabelamericanpod   Buy our Merch - https://vetclothing.com/collections/sponser-merch   Feedback (Audio or Written) - https://www.whitelabelamerican.com/contact/  

Supply chain tech and VC specialist Brian Laung Aoaeh, CFA returns for his long-awaited sequel to the laugh-filled first episode. So although we did get serious a few times while discussing the pandemic, laughter was never far behind as it is and will always be a part of our stories.   First, we began with confirmation that I was not late to this recording unlike our first recording when all my ancestors, ex-girlfriends, and village people combined to make me late at a record time to my own recording. Such has never repeated itself again, still baffles me to this day.   Brian touched on how he and his co-founder Lisa, became a team with their shared interest in the supply chain. Brian would give us more insight into how they were willing to put the supply chain community that they had built to work and save as many lives as possible earlier in the pandemic to no avail.   We dived into the West African and by extension African space when it comes to embracing the supply chain (none of us can survive without it). How just by doing the basics of upgrading our infrastructure would be more than beneficial to the host countries, it would be great for neighboring ones too as the supply chain is an economic multiplier if you just get the basics right. Brian also shared how his journey into fatherhood has been going, his culinary tastes haven't reduced, nor has his taste in music. There's a lot more to Brian and I highly recommend that you check out Brian's first appearance on White Label American (Titled "What is Death"). I hope to have him back again as we have so much to talk about. Make sure to check out Brian's article on Freightwave from 2020 on modernizing Africa's logistics capacity (link below).

We haven't had guests born in the United States but living in a different country for some time now, who better than two unique and inspiring women that I have been a fan of right from Oct 2020 when I first heard about some of their work on my favorite podcast The Black Guy Who Tips (link below). Since that fateful day in October, I began following Angela Fobbs and Adrianne George the Co-hosts of the Black Women in Europe podcast.  The Black Women in Europe podcast was born from the multi-award-winning blog of the same title that has been in the running for fifteen years. Be you a Black immigrant or an indigenous (especially woman) in Europe, the Black Women in Europe blog has great resources and connections for your network. The second season of the podcast kicks off right after this episode drops. Link below! Before blogging and podcasting, Angela and Adrianne both began life in different parts of America. One in a boring town, the other in an exciting place. Each woman's dream as a teenager also pointed to a different path but the universe always courses correct and thus began their adventure overseas. This conversation has unisex names, gangs, and colors, beautiful love stories, laughs, and so much was learned. Most importantly, get out and vote, we cannot afford to let the Fascists win. Climate change can be solved if we vote for the right people, so Vote in November!

Zou Diallo is a digital media creator based in Brooklyn NY. You wouldn't be able to tell that this gentleman did not speak a word of English when he arrived in America. Zou's story is a beautiful American story and shows how the struggle of many immigrants is real. Zou's arrival in NYC is one of the most legendary “Welcome To New York” stories that we have had on the podcast, mine.  know that mine. However, before he came to the United States, Zou lived in one of the most beautiful and historic places on earth. Zou shares his experiences in Bamako, at school, childhood, and similarities between Malian and Nigerian cultures. We talked a bit about our school day.  Zou is also the man to talk to if you are interested in learning about the restaurant industry. Zou is the person who introduced me to Afro-Trap music (that tune is good) and he also put his skills to work by making my first TikTok video for me right after we recorded. We still need to get him on the pounded yam by the way. Zou is big in the content-creating spaces, especially when it comes to visuals, this man would make you hungry if you stare at his food presentations on Instagram.

CEO of Worthy Retail U Steve Worthy, at one point in life, did not see the need in accepting the call to lead until one fateful day early in his Air Force days. Leadership always found him despite his attempts at avoiding it. This episode is not limited to only discussing leadership and developing that skill set. Steve is a retail leader, and executive coach, who shares with us memorable moments from his childhood into the present and how they have inspired him to create multiple podcasts. Oh, talking about podcasting, Steve is not only one of the most experienced in this space as he has been podcasting since 2007, he also has one of the best voices in the industry. Steve also loves to live stream his broadcast and I can't recommend him enough to anyone looking to get into podcasting. Steve is one of my biggest inspirations as I have learned much from him.  Don't forget to support our work by donating or buying us a cup of ko-fi at our website www.whitelabelamerican.com You can also take your support even further by becoming a Patron and access loads of bonus content that aren't available to the public https://www.patreon.com/whitelabelamericanpod Buy our merch https://vetclothing.com/collections/sponser-merch Connect with Steve Worthy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-worthy Website: www.worthyretailu.com Podcast: https://worthyretailu.com/podcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/worthyretailu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/worthylg Infrared_Krypto's music https://linktr.ee/ahmad_infraredkrypto Timestamp: Shout-out 00:00 - 02:51 Intro 2:53 - 3:51 Beautiful Names 05:00 - 06:47, Place of Birth &Childhood 06:58 - 07:30, Favorite Childhood Memory 07:53 - 09:17, Children & Play  09:30 - 20:33, 1st Memorable Story 23:08 - 26:22, Leadership 41:55- 42:10, Retail 44:18 - 46:38, Golf + Air Force 46:57 - 48:04, Customer Service + Air Force 48:35 - 55:11, Embracing Storytelling Via Podcasting 55:35 - 59:45, Substance In Content 01:00:32 - 01:04:43, Livestream 01:05:00 - 01:09:23, Cuisine 01:10:52 - 01:12:45, Music 01:14:12 - 01:17:29, Final Q 01:17:58 - 01:20:00, Plugins 01:20:12

Alvaro and I would meet in one founded by an amazing man who unfortunately is no longer with us today. Thus began our friendship which has lasted well over a decade.

Rahman Oladigbolu came out of a seven-year illness battling sickle cell and began pursuing his dream of making movies. Rahman's battle with sickle cell will bring back memories to me and at the same time remind me of the need for more awareness about this disease. Rahman is now an award-winning director, whose next movie is The Private Experience, an adaptation of Ms. Chimmanda Adichie.   Fun fact: this is the second guest with whom I was in the same city during my younger days. It wasn't planned, just found out while recording. As they say, it's a small world!

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!

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.
