This is a podcast about Personal Finance and Money. That being said, occasionally it’s tempting to go a bit off-script. This week’s episode is an example of giving into that urge. In last week's episode, Vince had a conversation with author, consultant, and entrepreneur Philip Blackett on the subject of artificial intelligence, and its potential impact on our jobs and careers. For the next 2 episodes, Philip, a self professed political conservative, and Vince go down a different path; discussing how, as a Christian Black man, Philip came to embrace conservative politics and believe it represents the best political path forward for the Black community, economically and otherwise. The result is a lively but respectful discussion of different viewpoints. If this episode intrigues you, check out Philip’s new podcast, The Christian Conservative Capitalist Commentary on your favorite podcast app.
