Episode 103 of The People's Podcast features a conversation -- which was originally recorded in Miami at #NABJ19 -- with PR Guru, Activist, and all around Bajan bad ass Leanne Weekes.
Leanne and Jay talked in the middle of a convention hall in South Florida back in August and it was as raw as it gets (Interview starts at around 17:07):
• What first drove her toward Journalism & later PR
• How she side hustled covering the Met Gala
• How her take no sh*t attitude has helped and hurt her
• What her West Indian upbringing taught her about hard work
• Why people need to realize how Black Miami really is
• How Climate Change is helping to fuel gentrification in Miami
• What her biggest challenge is in the business
• Why she has a love/hate relationship with the 305
Plus: Jay gives y'all an update on where he's been since Episode 102 (Thanks, Katie!) and he calls a few people out. We're back, baby!
