Tues. Aug. 5th, 2025 | Providence is full of wave makers and trendsetters who don’t just bring the cool, they care about community, culture, and giving back.
This week, we had designer & curator Jota and journalist & podcaster Victor Báez pull up to talk about their latest collaboration with idea originator PartywithRami: Un Corito Sano, a fundraising party going down Friday, Aug. 8th in Providence.
They get into the heart behind the event, the joy of Dominican culture, and what it means to say Dominicans are Black. We also get into Love Island racism, RIPTA being under threat (save public transit!), Tiffany Haddish & Jason Lee going half on a baby (?!), our pick for song of the summer, and more.
WBRU360 & Spark Up Podcast Present: The Mid-Day Spark Up with Cristina Sev ft. DJ Franchise LIVE every Tuesday at 12 pm to 1 pm on 101.1 FM or The WBRU360 app & other outlets
