Speaker A: All right, uh, this episode of How Long Gone is brought to you by Stateside with Kai and Carter, a new podcast from The Guardian. And they are using this podcast to slow down the news and wrestle with the questions that we all have about what's happening in the world. And they do it 3 times a week. Jason, does that sound familiar to you? Speaker B: We don't really talk about, you know, a lot of international global news items and climates and cultures and sports and things like that. We do talk about fashion and wellness, but for everything else, Kai and Carter are a great place.

Speaker A: All right, so who couldn't use more news? Listen wherever you get your podcasts or watch on YouTube. How long gone? A beautiful Tuesday post-Easter here in New York City. Birds are chirping. A lot hap— a lot happening, Jason. It's tough to keep up. Speaker B: So much happening in the world. Let's talk about food and stuff for an hour though, right? Speaker A: I'd rather talk about that than this new A. song. Oh baby, we got a stinker. We got a stinker. No surprise to anyone that a new

A. song on a, uh, quote-unquote gospel album would be a stinker. But I was not— and tell me, you, you've played more A. in the club than most people, I would say, just based on age and proximity. Um, what, what did you— did you expect a rapping bridge at this stage, or is— was that also a surprise to you? Speaker B: It has a rapping granny feel to I mean, it's— I guess it's not a huge surprise considering she's made a lot of, you know, hip-hop-inspired music that could be, sure, you know, put into the rap category.
