Episode 14: That's All She Wrote (Finale)

That’s all she wrote, folks! In this special season finale and final episode of The Takeback Podcast, Angelica and Jess discuss the labor of love that this show has been and why they made the difficult decision to end the podcast. But before that, they have a heartfelt and candid conversation with The Takeback’s sound engineer and audio wizard, Sam Cook-Stuntz, about the vital importance of white allyship in racial equity work. Sam humbly reflects on his continuous learning about racial equity as a white man, and gives tips to other racially or economically privileged members of the creative sector on how they can build more equity in their business practices. The episode closes with Angelica and Jess recommending a few of their favorite BIWOC businesses, brands, and causes, followed by some final reflections about the experience of making this show.
To all of our listeners, guests, volunteers, and supporters: Thank you for joining us. While this ultimately turned out to be a shorter-lived project than we had planned, we are so grateful that you chose to go on this 14-episode journey with us. We couldn’t have done this without you! Please stay in touch with Angelica and Jess on their individual social media accounts (links below). Because their creative adventures are far from over-even if it’s time to say farewell to this podcast. Thanks again for your support. We wish you all a happy, prosperous, and creative new year.
