Smriti Datta joins me for a chat about the two novels she’s published, the pitch competitions she’s demolished and the support she’s received in pursuing her dreams.

Beyond Academia, we discuss the culture we've been consuming. Yes, I finally watched Heated Rivalry; and Smriti has been listening to my share of Taylor Swift.

Keeping the show's theme of intergenerational discussion flowing, Smriti describes the relationship she has with her Gen Alpha sister - and I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that they're still consuming the Percy Jackson series.

All this and more in season 3 episode 14 of Whole 'Nother Story Podcast!

Media Man Casey Eakins brings us the intel on the brand new St. Thomas stadium and all the work he put in to help bring it to life - with his own two hands ✋🤚 If you love sports, if you love tech, if you love media - we cover it all.

Yes, this episode is canonically named after Star Wars…but our main media deep dive gets into all things Stranger Things Season 5.

We recap our trip to Belfast during study abroad where we went on a Game of Thrones tour with an extra from the show, talk about recent stadium experiences we've had, and cover even more

Shonda, how could you forget your iPad, girl??
My guest this weekend is Tori McMorrow! We chat about how she has been girlbossing in her early career, including working with the Wild, running the suites at the US Open, and putting on branded events in NYC and beyond.
ADHD won’t stop this queen from conversing with Billie Jean King or being the hero to return Shonda’s iPad. And it certainly won’t stop her from pursuing her dreams.

This episode is an important one, and it jumped the line for a few reasons:
My guest, Myrka Zambrano Sánchez, works with MN Immigrant Rights Action Committee (mirac).
She shares the experiences she’s had over the last few weeks, acting as emcee at a protest after the death of Renee Good, and supporting her neighbors through mutual aid and organizing while Minneapolis is under occupation by federal agents.
This episode is not inflammatory, discouraging, or meant to inflate the sadness we have felt in the last few weeks and months.
This episode is a celebration of how the community has been coming together, a reminder of how important it is to contribute in a way that is true to yourself, and how to keep showing up for your neighbors.
While it’s one of my more serious episodes, I hope you find comfort in hearing Myrka’s and my own experiences.
Link to Mpls Mutual Aid is in my bio - for more information on how to keep showing up.

We caught up with Junior Agbenowossi while he was home for the holidays! Junior is a creative with lots of projects and big dreams he's in pursuit of.
