Grumpy Wizdom - On Becoming (Part 2)

Episode 2: Creating The Fussings and Building Afros & Audio

What happens when you stop waiting and just start?

Talib Jasir shares how a 90-day challenge sparked the creation of his first audio drama, The Fussings, and how that single leap shaped what would become the Afros & Audio Podcast Festival. From self-doubt to community wins, this episode captures the messy, magic-filled journey of creating without a blueprint—and reminds us that becoming often begins with saying yes before you're ready.
