from Bright Brainz · host Isaac Walker

Isaac chops it up with Belal Kamara, a tech founder based in Denver, to discuss his newly launched startup LetsGym.io which is an app aimed at helping people find a workout partner.

The conversation also covered his immigrant background and the challenges Belal faced in the tech industry as a man of color, the importance of networking and practicing skills, and the need for diversity, equity, and inclusion in the tech industry. This is a great conversation and you don't want to miss it.

Risen Light Church risen light church family At Risen Light Church we passionately believe the good news of the Gospel.

Oz 9 Gated Galaxies It's Spring 2142 (a Tuesday), and Gated Galaxies has launched its 400 Oz-8000 ships, each carrying 50,000 "resting guests" to, hopefully, a new home on a shiny, brand-new planet. Except this whole "terraform and take over" idea isn't actually the plan; the real plan is far more nefarious and involves a great deal of cackling. But those aboard the ships don't know that, so off they toodle (those that make it out of Earth's atmosphere, at least), all shiny and optimistic. This is the story of one of those ships – the Oz 9 – and its tiny crew of hopeless incompetents. So far, they've been in space half an hour and several hundred people are dead. So... bright future, clearly.
