Summary

Today on Episode 28 of Quarantine Radio, we make calls from our Upper West Side apartment to check in on actor/writer/director/producer Issa Rae to talk about I-Wood, how she creates today as compared to the days of the 2008 recession, and who her personal Ned Ryerson is. We get on the phone with Anger Management rapper Rico Nasty to discuss how she's being creative now that she's off the road, how she's progressing in her quest to cook, and the realities of parenting a four-year old during quarantine while living with four of her best friends. We also hit up Puff and Jay-Z's favorite young rapper Chika, and we get into the Roc Nation Brunch experience, performing at NPR's Tiny Desk, and her feelings about the present and future of her home state, Alabama.
