The contents of this conversation are nothing new. The Black experience abroad has been discussed by many Black people online. I learned something new beyond the "race discussion," which is why this episode is an interesting one if you pay attention. Lucky is from Sacramento, California and we discuss what it's like to be both Black and American in Germany, playing into stereotypes, and fatherhood.

Breakups hurt and you don't know how to process what just happened. I've experienced all sorts of breakups, including friendships, and I believe we all have except we don't talk about it enough. Patricia is from Venezuela and we both have a lot of similarities being Latinas from Miami, Florida; however, we also lived parallel lives. She asks me questions that range from dating in your late 20s, the heavy blow of friendship breakups, and finding your tribe.
