Just two black writers catching up once a week. Javon Johnson and Rudy Francisco have spent years navigating world events and life developments, and now you get a front row seat to some of their conversations. Your hosts are longtime friends hailing from two cities who met in California, connected by a love of poetry and The 5 Freeway. Through the years, they have remained close and explored success, fatherhood, love, heartbreak, blackness, and just existing and growing in the world around them.
The guys snuck in another episode just before the holiday. The world is on fire but maybe this week we could set it at 450 degrees and get the mac and cheese right.
The guys are talking, sports, love, travels family and of course the more than occasional joke.
The guys are back shooting the shits, and tryna get a lesson or two out of these jokes. Once again talking all things love, life and fatherhood
Another week of the guys catching up about being black and being dads, also a few NYC hot takes. Listen Brooklyn Javon means no harm.
The guys are back again still black still opinionated and still tryna figure out this fatherhood ish.
Hey y’all this is the "sneak preview" episode of the 5 freeway podcast, many of y’all know us from the slam poetry scene, some maybe from instagram, and if you’re new to one of us or both of us, well, it’s great to meet you. We’re just catching up and we will be here next week.
