Wednesday's uncomfortable conversation with Caribbean men from the Clubhouse app.

In this first episode of To Man, From Island, I sit with buddy to talk over a couple shots and mixed drinks at his in-home bar. Learn about Cape Verde from someone who is proud of his heritage, hear the hilarious story about the "slave auction" they had back in his high school days and how it has ties to the school still to this day, and find out which songs stands out when it comes to relationship advice and which song he has to turn off right away (even in your car). Fresh perspectives help improve your own, always. Good and entertaining conversation with a good guy.
