Happy To Be Back, and Looking for Sponsors!

Happy to be back to work. Welcome to the Detroit Jo Podcast. The summer is a slow time for podcasting due to many reasons, but we are back. Sometimes, life really do be lifeing. To be honest, my health has been okay, but my money has been funny. And I'll be more than honest, I have been funding Detroit Jo without a sponsor, which is not the best way because one will run out of money at some point.

This will not happen to me because I will hustle like I did as a teacher. If you know of a company or business who could give me funding. Or a friend of yours who might know someone, please get in touch with me. My email is jaking1954@sbcglobal.net. Also, I'm always looking for interesting guests with an experience of strength and knowledge to share.

Two guests will be on this month and I know you'll be touched by their message. Detroit Jo signing off. Walk in Love and peace.

Before having this interview with Councilman Coleman Young Jr. I had little or no understanding of the Cannabis business. It was all weed to me. I had no idea that it was such a big business in the greater Detroit area, which not only sold cannabis and related products, but had owners who were putting money into the neighborhoods. They don't seem to be playing the Gentrification games by moving people out of the neighborhoods. Listen to this podcast, which will give the answer to why few Black folks are in this business.

Pink

jag@jagindetroit.com (Pink Flowers, Detroit Jo) — Thu, 14 Jul 2022 23:04:35 +0000

You are about to hear my first interview for The Detroit Jo Podcast. At that time, I had not thought of turning Pink's written history of transformation into a podcast. You will notice that the format is a little different. Please have an open mind as you listen to yet another person who is disenfranchised in America. You will hear the word cis used in this interview. What does it mean? According to TransHub, whatever gender you are now is the same as what was presumed for you at birth. Pink was once a man but is considered at this time a trans woman.
