Episode Description

Katie and Yves are joined by journalist and author of “When Crack Was King,” Donovan X. Ramsey. They discuss his new book, the media’s role in exacerbating the devastating effects of crack, how hip-hop artists memorialized the early days of crack in their rhymes, and the unhinged PSAs put out during the crack era. (Ahem, looking at the Partnership for a Drug Free America PSA: “Make no mistake — drug abuse is the new slavery.”)

Join hosts Nic and Alex as they break down weekly FAM League fantasy matchups, talk football, and catch up on life. Producer Kendall rounds out the team as the guys work semi-regularly to attempt mediocrity in the podcasting space. New episodes available whenever the guys get around to it, but hopefully weekly throughout football season. Follow the guys nowhere, because they aren't really on social media.
