Brownstone Buddies and Trusted Adults!

Thank you for joining us for our first-ever three-part episode! This unique family adventure was so grand, we couldn't contain it within just two episodes. Get ready for an adventure like no other!

In this magical journey, with the help of her enchanted quilt and T.A.'s teddy bear, the clock turns back, and Great Aunt Jessie is transformed into a magical storyteller. She guides Penny and Nori through the rich history of their family's incredible journey, a journey that spans from Ghana to Scotland, from Ireland to what we now call America, and beyond. This story is not just a celebration of heritage, but also a testament to the resilience and unity that binds us all.

Featuring special guests:

• Alyana Reid, the real-life granddaughter of Betty Reid Soskin, portrays Magical Great Aunt Jessie, blending the voices of two generations into one.
• Lanee Blaise (Imagine Yourself Podcast) as Young T.A.'s Mother, bringing depth and warmth to the family's history.
• Luke as Young T.A., capturing the essence of youthful curiosity and adventure.

We hope you and your family enjoyed this very special Juneteenth episode and will listen again and again. Don't forget to share it with your family and friends, spreading the joy and history that "What's Poppin' Penny?" brings.

We'd love to hear your family's unique history stories!
