On today’s show, guest Jason Kamras joins Melvina and Carol to talk about the impact of COVID on Richmond kids and families. He describes some of the means the school district is managing education amid a pandemic: repurposing the buses to deliver food to families; establishing a collaboration for childminding; and getting those new laptops.

Get in the car, kids! We’re going on that Fun Drive I told you about. That’s where we all buckle up and donut all around this shop raising money for all that cool stuff your mom likes so much. It’s for you, really! And to celebrate we have an extra big interview today.
Micha Sol! Tattoo artist, but more importantly Music Scientist ™, joins us to talk about, well mainly about their forthcoming release Dawn Chaser, but also they’ve got just a lot of THINGS that they can TELL you about if you know what I MEAN because I’m IMPLYING it (though this is also true literally, without any implication).
This is still a kind of a rap show tho. “From a certain point of view.” – Obi Wan Kenobi
