This episode features rapper, gamer, illustrator, animator, poet, and dear friend from my days at MCA (Memphis College of Art), Jeshaun Powell aka ACE GAHD. He is a true example of a "Renaissance man." He is hilarious and happy go lucky but he is also someone full of ambition and talent. It was a joy to have him on the pod!

and much more!
