Greetings Glocal Citizens! This week on the podcast community builidng is a central theme. For twenty years, my guest, Bakajika Tshinanga, has operated at the exact intersection where culture generates economic value. His journey started in 2004, when he founded a student-led program at the University of Georgia Atlanta. Georgia Daze still runs today and has improved enrollment yield conservatively valued at $150M+ in incremental revenue for the university. That experience shaped how he thinks about infrastructure: who builds it, who benefits, and who owns the upside. He went on building hospitality programming delivering the cultural insight that prompted AT&T to sponsor Drake's inaugural headline tour and leading the campaign that introduced the Lyft ridesahre app to Atlanta. He's produced work with cultural figures including Michael Jordan, and while an undergraduate he producing concerts featuring Outkast, Lauryn Hill, and Dave Chappelle. Also of note, he owns a publishing catalog featuring songs from Lil Wayne, The Neptunes, Sevyn Streeter, Pusha T, and Usher. Coding since age 11, technology is lens he's always looking through. His latest endeavor, the lOlŌ's platform is the direct expression of technology deployed as infrastructure to close the gap between who creates cultural value and who captures it. He's lived the innovator's dilemma firsthand: operating at the riskiest part of the curve, where the work is undeniable but the capital isn't designed to find you. That experience is why lOlŌ exists—a collective ownership vehicle for cultural capital, community-capitalized, community-governed, designed to compound for generations. Where to fine Bakajika?

My first guest to kick off our 2026 season is Zach Williams, frontman and founder of Americana band The Lone Bellow, to discuss D'Angelo's 2000 neo-soul classic album 'Voodoo'. We chat about Zach's origin story with this album, how growing up in Georgia he would offset his love of listening to country music with a secret passion for R&B, the incredibly moving 2026 Grammys in-memoriam tribute to D'Angelo led by Lauryn Hill, the unusually long process of making 'Voodoo' at Electric Lady Studios in New York City, the artist's reluctance to be branded as a sex symbol despite the record label's insistence, D'Angelo's collaboration with Quest Love and Pino Palladino, and the way the fearless spirit of 'Voodoo' inspired Zach to be at his bravest and most honest when creating his own music.

This week on We Talk Weekly News, we break down the biggest headlines shaping politics and culture — from Philadelphia to Hollywood.In this episode, we take a closer look at the controversy surrounding the Trump Administration's removal of slavery exhibits at the President's House in Philadelphia — a decision that has sparked legal battles, public backlash, and concerns about the erasure of American history. After President Donald Trump signed executive orders, Federal officials removed exhibits detailing the realities of slavery, and while a judge ordered restoration, parts of that effort have now been halted, raising serious questions about how history is being told. Plus, new developments in entertainment and celebrity news:Pop icon Britney Spears is facing headlines following reports of a DUI arrest, adding to ongoing concerns about her personal and legal challenges.Hip-hop legend Lauryn Hill is back in the spotlight amid conversations about her place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.Music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs is making news again as updates emerge about his prison release timeline.And back here in the City of Brotherly Love, we examine growing concerns over education as the School District of Philadelphia faces potential school closures leaving families, students, and communities uncertain about what comes next.From politics to pop culture, we connect the dots and give you the context mainstream headlines often miss.

Erin drafted this episode during a false spring — bright light, warm temps, a few days without a winter jacket. Then she sat down to record on a Sunday and it was snowing. Again. Which is exactly why this episode needed to exist. This is a guided end-of-winter reflection for everyone who has been holding on through the hardest months of the year. It names the specific disorientation of almost-spring, validates the depletion that comes from a full winter of reserves being drawn down, and offers a gentle self check-in before we sprint toward a spring we may not quite be ready for yet.   "The cruelest part of almost-spring is how much it asks of our patience right when we have nothing left to give."   The episode's guiding question: What does it look like to finish the winter well? Not crawl across the finish line. Actually arrive at spring with your identity, your core values, and your sense of self intact.   IN THIS EPISODE What We Cover Why almost-spring is its own kind of exhaustion — the gap between anticipation and reality The 'lights on before you're ready to get up' feeling — and why burned-out women feel this as pressure, not relief Winter fatigue as cumulative — how we've been drawing off reserves since November Why rushing the thaw — emotionally, physically, mentally — can undo the quiet work of winter The grief of letting go of the slower season, even when it was hard A five-question guided self check-in (interactive — grab a journal) Building reserves for the final stretch without over-scheduling spring A full care package: books, albums, a color, and three small practices   THE SELF CHECK-IN Five Questions for the Thaw Erin walks through each question on mic — modeling the practice and answering for herself in real time. Grab a journal or your notes app and do this alongside her.   Question 1  What did this winter actually ask of me? Not what you accomplished or managed. What did the season ask you to carry? What was the central question of your winter? Erin's answer: The winter asked her to carry her own point of view at the top of the priority list — not putting herself first exactly, but leading with her own thoughts and feelings rather than orienting around everyone else's. Her word of the year: sovereign.   Question 2  Where am I still depleted — and have I been honest with myself about that? Erin uses the image of a mixing board — every dial at a solid medium, which actually tracks for where she is. Her depletion: staleness. Ready for something new. Scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to whimsy and joy. Key reframe: You don't have to stare directly into the sun of your vulnerability. You can look just northwest of it — at the things contributing to the drain — and that's enough.   Question 3  What am I rushing toward — and is it something I actually want, or just relief from the dirty snowbank of March? March is a dirty snowbank. And sometimes we rush toward whatever offers escape from it — a summer dress in a shopping cart, a new creative direction, a reinvention. The almost-spring energy can manufacture urgency that isn't real. "The sense of urgency is manufactured. I can confront that limiting belief. Am I really out of time?" Erin's example: She felt the impulse to rush toward creating AI content after one listener expressed interest — then caught herself and let it cook instead.   Question 4  What from this winter do I want to carry forward into spring? Winter strips us bare and contracts our field of vision — but it also teaches. The whimsy has to live with the struggle. That's actually where whimsy does its best work. Erin's answer: Carrying her own point of view forward. The ownership of the hard stuff alongside the spring strut and the dangly earrings and the daffodils.   Question 5  What do I need to let go of before spring arrives? Some things served their purpose in the dark season. They don't have to come with you. Erin's answer: Comparison. Specifically — the way that deeply owning her own point of view this winter also opened the door to measuring herself against others. The comparison served a purpose. It helped her name the difference. She doesn't need to bring it into spring.   BUILDING RESERVES How to Finish Winter Well The goal is not to arrive at spring perfectly rested, perfectly reflected, perfectly ready. That's just not available to most of us. The goal is to arrive as yourself — with enough in the barrel to meet what spring asks of you.   Return to the micro-rituals from Episode 168 — don't abandon them just because the light is changing Protect your sleep after the time change — your body needs 36–48 hours minimum to readjust Protect slowness even as the energy around you speeds up — create a container for it Resist the urge to over-schedule spring before winter is actually over Remember: the calendar filling up is not the same as being ready Name one thing you are still protecting in this season — and keep protecting it   THE CARE PACKAGE Borrow This Until You Find Your Own Erin has been reluctant to be prescriptive — she wants people to do the metacognitive work of figuring out what they actually need. But she also knows the blank page is its own barrier. So this is a starting kit, not a destination. Doors, not prescriptions.   "Think of these as doors in a room. Walk through, look around, notice what resonates and what doesn't. The noticing is the most important part."  

In this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones and Jason England continue their discussion of Hip=Hop in the year 1996.From classic albums by A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul to the massive breakthrough of The Fugees, the conversation explores how 1996 produced some of the most important rap records ever made. But it was also the moment when hip-hop started shifting—from a culture-driven scene to a more commercial industry.Bomani and Jason break down why albums like Beats, Rhymes and Life, Stakes Is High, Hell on Earth from Mobb Deep, and Ironman from Ghostface Killah captured a turning point in the genre.

This episode we have special guest Dobbie, CP3, and Jay Makaveli who joins the in as we dive into some of the biggest conversations happening in hip-hop, culture, and entertainment right now — from award show relevance to rap beefs, generational debates, and uncomfortable social conversations.

“Check out our Nerdy Bitz!”On the very first Nerdy Bitz bonus episode of Friends Talking Nerdy, Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd plug in, turn it up, and dive headfirst into the 2026 nominees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. No safe takes. No polite clapping. Just passionate, occasionally unhinged music nerdery.They break down the legacies, the cultural impact, and the “wait… how are they not already in?” factor for a stacked lineup: The Black Crowes, Jeff Buckley, Mariah Carey, Phil Collins, Melissa Etheridge, Lauryn Hill, Billy Idol, INXS, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, New Edition, Oasis, P!nk, Sade, Shakira, Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan. From arena anthems to soul-shattering ballads, from metal epics to hip-hop game changers, nothing is off limits.Is influence more important than sales? Does genre even matter anymore? And how do you compare the operatic sweep of one legend to the gritty rebellion of another? Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd wrestle with the impossible task of narrowing down greatness.To close it out, they each reveal the five artists they would vote into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame if they held the power. Alliances are tested. Lines are drawn. Feelings are felt.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.

If you are busy wondering when God is going to do the things you've heard & envisioned -be patient.The time is coming sooner than you thought. And you'll look back at this 'hidden' time of consecration & private development with longing.When God 'reveals' you, He wants to make sure you have the capacity in character, to remain where He calls.It's not your gifts that will sustain you, but your character.That's what's being carefully curated, carefully molded, privately developed, and carefully grown.Do not despise this time.The hidden time is protection.This time + the lessons are invaluable, and it will be the key to being able to remain & go higher."For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret except to come to light." - Mark 4:22- @prophetess.maggie via IG"Waiting is just a gift of time in disguise - a time to pray wrapped up in a ribbon of patience - because is the Lord ever late?-Ann Voskamp via IG @worshipblog"Don't try to stop thinking, let it happen.
