Not to brag, but this one is good! And not just because W. Kamau Bell is an accomplished stand-up comedian, 5 time Emmy Award winning host, director, and author, but because he is authentic, hilarious, and full of heart. Every time we sit down with him it feels like we've just had the most constructive and fun therapy session, and it just keeps getting better. We dive into whether he considers himself an optimist, the complications of being a tourist in Hawaii, his on screen wardrobe choices (shop Oaklandish!), World War Woke, and his thoughts on the future and our youth. He also describes each episode of season 7 of his show on CNN, United Shades of America with W. Kamau Bell, and some highlights from his most recent book with New York Times best selling author Kate Schatz, Do the Work! An Antiracist Activity Book.
