Woke With Kids

This is one of our greatest episodes yet. We have spoken word originator, emcee, thespian, and screen actor Mums the Schemer aka Poet from the seminal television series "Oz." On this idea-packed intellectual jam session we freestyle on topics ranging from politics to the origin of the human species (don't assume it's planet Earth). Mel and the maestro nerd out to some theater talk and speak of influences ranging from Philip Seymour Hoffman to the art of emceeing itself. Put your thinking cap on, get your mind right, and let's go before the kids wake up. 5:00 - Mel and Mums theater nerd-out 12:00 - Finding your tribe 22:00 - What is Success? 28:00 - Kids and the Swirl 44:00 - Conservatism vs Progressivism 58:00 - Black privilege and power 1:03:00 - Origin of Species and the Future 1:06:00 - The Role of the Artist @sirmumsila @nyaze @melissakaysays @wokewithkids #wokewithkids
