EP 1 Lena Waithe

Lena Waithe joins Wyclef Jean for an unfiltered conversation that has a lot of unexpected surprises. Waithe talks about growing up in Chicago, high school days, and her journey including the struggles and success. Wyclef plays Waithe a never heard before Whitney Houston recording and surprises her with a musical interpretation of a scene from Queen & Slim. Wyclef gives a sample from a music artist you need to hear in a segment called "Put Me On" featuring Hannah Eggen. We get into it with Maddeline Nelson to talk talk politics with the recent news of Kamala Harris being selected to be Vice President candidate by Joe Biden.
