Blacking It Up! 

Blacking It Up (Black Weblog Awards – Best Podcast 2011 Judges Vote & Popular Vote) broadcasts Monday through Thursday at 1:30 pm EST featuring Elon James White, L. Joy Williams and Aaron Rand Freeman. The show tackles race, politics and pop-culture from an independent media perspective but with the guests and interviews that rival any mainstream media program.

#AfterBlack

#AfterBlack is the other side of the Blacking It Up Coin. Uncensored conversations about any and everything. From topics that spill over from Blacking It Up, long interviews and phone calls from a very engaged audience–AfterBlack keeps you guessing, laughing and and most of all–entertained.

#WeNerdHard

#WeNerdHard is the 2011 Podcast Awards nominated Best Tech podcast featuring Elon James White, Tatiana King, Fahnon Bennett and Aaron Rand Freeman. Talking everything from Saturday Morning Cartoon nostalgia, the latest in tech and gadgets, the hottest in video games and random science factoids–We Nerd Hard doesn’t shy away from anything that might be considered nerdy. It’s embraced and then questioned to see if there’s a possibility for a Zombie Apocalypse.
