Fan Mail
Corie, thank you so much for teaching me about my own music and culture. I first heard you when you did the episode on Black Stalin. I was working nights in 2023 in Toronto, Canada. I listened to that whole episode maybe about 5 times that week. Since then, I have been trying to keep up. But ever so often I go back to my one love this episode on Stalin.
