In case you missed it, this was recorded last Friday and published this morning. It's a fantastic listen:

That was amazing project37. Thank you

I thought so, too. It's a shame that the big takeaway for the lot of the media was "OMG he used the N-word" as opposed to the nuanced point he was making about what happened last week (not to mention the overall fascinating vibe of the conversation).

great interview. I wish we had this type of in depth discussions on our main stream media outlets.

yeah, well, we all know how the media does on nuance and race.
