i enjoyed mark anthony neal's discourse with both participants. his serenity is attractive & i felt comfortable the way their dialogue flowed smoothly - as if we were all sitting in his living room kicking it freestyle

i look forward 2 future episodes of his shows. interesting talk with progressive folk affirms my hue-manity, inspires my creativity & feeds my spirit.
