Yea we need to start a microphone reallocation program. Get that equipment away from the bozos & in front of our elders, so we can document their stories before they’re gone.

And now I’m weeping. Hearing this 78 year old Black man talk about the men in his life…so much pain that is inflicted onto us as kids. Also, an old person podcast? I’m subscribing immediately! I love hearing older people talk about their lives.

My favorite thing about Wood Harris is that it never looks like he’s remembering or reciting his lines. It always appears as if he’s stating his thoughts as they are coming to him in the moment. It always feels like you’re having a legit conversation with him.
