History and Boba

For knowledge seekers, history lovers, and people that love fun facts, this is your podcast. My name is Sedale Justice and each week, I'm giving you a quick dive into our history. Some stories will be weird, others empowering, and some will be very dark. We'll be talking about unfiltered history that never made it into history books at school. If that interests you, please join me on this journey into our past.
