Heyyyyy!!
Yes, you are right As I Was Saying... Podcast was on a short two week break but we are back and better than ever. You might see some aesthetic changes coming in the next few weeks so keep a look out for that. But, this week we are coming to you with a BRAND NEW INTERVIEW! I know so exciting right?
This week we are diving into "Daddy Issues" with author and poet Angelique Ambers

Angelique Ambers is a poet and writer who lives in Illinois. While she has been writing poetry for many years she recently started performing her work as a spoken word artist in the Chicago area in 2019. Additionally, she was the host for Hot Sauce Poetry which is an inspirational open mic in Chicago, earning her a 2020 nomination for a National Spoken Word Award in the category of “Best Host”.

“Lessons Taught by Daddy” is the first collection of poems that Ambers has published. However, she has been featured in other collections such as the She Will Speak Series: Gender Based Violence Anthology which included two of her poems “Rotting” and “Revival”. Angelique Ambers is passionate about bringing awareness to social issues and connecting people of various backgrounds. She performed at the Purple Meets Pink: Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer Awareness event in Memphis, TN last October. In addition, during Black History Month she had the pleasure of performing at the Boys and Girls Club in Humboldt Park in Chicago, as well as at the Semicolon Bookstore.

play

03/13/20 • 29 min

Hey! Its your host Cheyenne Tyler Jacobs...so for those of you who do not know Season 3 of On My Block came out on Netflix and people went insane. Folks were worried and still are worried if a Season 4 would even be coming! So you know I could not wait and watched and one night and let me just say I have never cried so much for a series show. Movies? Yes. TV shows...No. From the character reveals and turns to Laundry Days song at the end Friends.
I posted a tweet highlighting this seasons mirroring of life events and not to brag but it has been going semi-viral. Tweet can be found on my Twitter @shesjustche and I tweeted:
"#OnMyBlock really has me contemplating life and my emotional attachment to the show. Like the ending wasn’t an escape as much as a mirror to life itself. That song at end had me in my bag like I can’t y’all. This season actually messed me up."
So take a listen and if you want to discuss episode 8 more in depth and hit me up and make sure to follow me for my details on my upcoming episodes:
