Brewin' Black is back baybeeeeee! We're live streaming, trying longer episodes and a free-flowing style we hope you enjoy. Miss Rona has turned life upside down but we always bounce back. In this episode, we discuss the Las Vegas mayor, the NFL Draft, the disrespect given to the WNBA, Insecure. As always we keep it a bean and one big question we have to ask, " What does it mean to have a preference when dating and when does it become problematic?" Thank you for rocking with us and we're glad to be back!!!
