Cody Pruitt (Libertine) & Champion Chills

This week we head over to New York to chat with the beverage director and managing partner at one of the city's best new bars, Libertine. That's right, we're sitting down with Cody Pruitt to chat with him about his love for the city, him coming up in the culinary scene, how food played a big role for him in his childhood, and what it means to open up a spot for people to hang and relax in one of the greatest cities in the world. Then it’s a dip into the archives for a sit down with songwriter and hip hop artist, Jimmy Jolliff, a.k.a. Champion Chills, who shared some of his (at the time) latest tracks with us. We also dive into the importance of interracial allyship, leveraging privilege to provide opportunity, and most importantly, keeping our ears and hearts open for discussion and education.
