93: Talking Your Kids Through Current Events with Mike Goodwin
Comedian and hopeful future First Gentleman of South Carolina, Mike Goodwin (@BowtieComedy), jumps in the front seat for an honest and serious but still very hilarious conversation about how we talk about race relations between ourselves as adults and how we can have those discussions with our children.
We recommend listening through the episode alone before letting children listen along.
