Kat is a fresh transplant to Nashville and gives us her first impressions of the Music City. We talk about the significance of place and what it takes to put down roots in a new one — from getting to know the literal dirt to intentionally building community. Plus, we are joined by a special guest and host our own neighborly “meet cute.”
GUESTS:
- Kat Armas is the author of the new book “Abuelita Faith” and host of “The Protagonistas,” a podcast highlighting the stories and experiences of Black, Indigenous and other women of color among communities of faith.
- Tyler Huckabee is the senior editor of Relevant magazine and co-host of “Cape Town,” a podcast about superheroes and superhero things.
