Summary
Were highways/freeways designed to purposefully destroy Black neighborhoods? Langston and David are joined by comedian Rachel Pegram (Silly, Loud, and Delightful Album) about this tactful urban planning conspiracy theory. They discuss the mapping across America that displaced many Black and Brown communities. They also discuss Joe Biden, Pokémon, and the honorary Secret Service kid. Be sure to listen to this episode if you have a Tidal subscription, David will add it to his playlist!
