You ever meet a person for the first time and they seem like one of the homies?

We had a chance to virtually chill with author and Bay Area Hip Hop head Hua Hsu. His bylines include The Atlantic, Slate, The Wire and The New Yorker. His new book Stay True: A Memoir, is out now via Doubleday Publishing. We talked to him about his writing career and what is was like when he was was cutting his teeth in Berkley's hip hop scene of the mid nineties. Given Hua is from our neck of the universe we spent some time talking about our mutual stomping grounds as well. Episode 250! A cherry on top of season 5.
Suge LeBlanc is giving us a couple of weeks off so have a happy and safe holiday. We will be back with new episodes mid January.
