Hello to our loyal listeners! Anyone still out there? It's been a minute since we dropped a new episode, but the year is 2020 and well, I think we're all living in a simulation. HA. But seriously, we're super happy to be back and making more episodes. Both of us felt during the last month we wanted to be sensitive to what's going on in our world and focus our time to listening and learning (and un-learning!) about the racial injustice in our country and the world. Please check our instagram for some resources and tools we've been using to further educate ourselves! We're so excited to bring you this week's episode with Danielle Johnson. Danielle is one of Erika's co-workers at Gable Music Ventures, and she's in the soul blues band Hoochi Coochi. Danielle joins us to discuss her experience as a black, queer woman in the music industry, her thoughts on the Black Lives Matter movement and social media's involvement, as well as debunking and confirming some stereotypes about being in a band. Listen in at Spotify or Apple Podcasts, and be sure to check out Hoochi Coochi! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-midnight-tea-podcast/support

Long time no tea. Since both rikkie and ktb are safely quarantined at home, they are sadly not together and no longer able to record episodes in the basement of the library. So each week, they'll get the chance to sit in a quiet room and ramble to themselves for an hour. How thrilling. In this episode, ktb talks living in a house with 2 college professors, why we need to stop comparing our losses to others, and some ways to stay motivated during this time. Bring your favorite mug (you know, the one with that cute motivational quote that rhymes - yup that one) for a super chill and real episode... then let's wake up and do it all again tomorrow. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-midnight-tea-podcast/support
