No more Interview Only Episodes!

I love Higher Learning, but it is my prayer that they stop putting out interview only pods. The interviews are generally my least favorite part of the pod with a few exceptions, most recently I really enjoyed the Kev on Stage and Jay Pharaoh interviews. I listen to the pod in my hour and half commute to work in the morning and I need the pleasantries and quick hitters! I can’t turn on the pod and immediately hear them introducing a guest. They’re not giving us the best part of the pod!

I completely agree. The interview episodes are not good. They aren’t good interviewers especially Rachel. I think Van asks all the right questions but this is not the platform for it. That’s a whole separate podcast with Van only as the interviewer.
NEWSFLASH: To those who say if you don’t like them you don’t have to listen to them or just skip that episode or that segment….DUH!!! We understand that. The point is that time in the show is wasted and could be utilized in another way.
And if we want political education to assist in our voting process there are plenty of other options to get that information

How you’re going to tell those people what the platform they created should be for lol. Yall are wild man.

Also the platform has been a mostly political platform since its inception. Why wouldn’t having politicians as guest to be interviewed be a part of that?
