    The black annoying guy
    is too hard to listen to due to his high pitched whiny voice. Also, the guy is insecure and yells to make his point over the other guy. Waste of time.

    Fantastic!
    Long time listener, figured I better leave a review. You guys are doing a great thing, I love how honest, unapologetic and human the conversations are. Race can be such a touchy and difficult subject to talk about. As a white guy this podcast both lets me empathize more with non white perspective and also scrutinize and acknowledge my own whiteness not in a self deprecating or self elevating way, but rather in an honest way even if it means acknowledging or realizing how aspects of my race play into my life and into my brain, whether voluntary or not. Great chemistry between Tim and Chris, very funny, sometimes tense but ultimately genuinely good friends whom truly want to relate and learn from each other more and help break down racial barriers between people with brutally honest but empathetic conversation.

    Awesome Show
    I listen to this while I'm at work all the time & I can't help but laugh at these two. I love their relationship and that these topics can be talked about openly with raw responses on one another's perspective. Keep these episodes coming!!

    Wow
    This is an intense podcast yet I wish the white guy was a bit more introspective when speaking. You guys may need be friends yet there needs to be more sensitivity in terms of race relations ... No one should create context to the N word. It's a horrible word

    So dope
    I love this show. I gave it a try and I love it. Nothing else like it. My one critique is the mixing is off sometimes and sounds like Tim is screaming and Chris is whispering but sound mixing aside this is an interesting, easy to listen to show. It's not contrived or put on or over produced like many podcasts can be and addresses many interesting topical issues. A must listen!

    Rave On Race Relations!
    It is so rare to see men (and men of different races) negotiating the slippery slope of race, gender and being a dude in 2016. Each of your shows is better than the last and as fans it is very cool to be watching "Race Relations" become such a different and fascinating voice. More, more, more!

    White dude...“You don’t know everything"
    I tried but the white guy is disrespectful to his “Black friend”. White dude is the actual DICK! (Episode 4) He interrupts and disregards valid points for the sake of trying to be funny. He’s not funny. Reminds me of the white dudes I work with in Corporate America. Reminds me of Trump. Reminds me of the Media. White guys and gals talking loud, trying to dominate all conversations, shift fault to others, and never acknowledge their wrongs. Deflection, manipulation, and twisting of words. Waste of time.

    Captivating
    This podcast is like watching two of your closest friends get into a heated debate and knowing that whatever happens, they’ll remain friends, and you and everyone listening will get something out of the exchange. Kind of suspenseful, funny and totally engrossing, the open and forthright banter between these guys is totally worth a listen. Discussing race in such an honest way can’t be easy, but Chris and Tim don’t seem to shy away from anything. It’s definitely made it onto my permanent podcast rotation. Highly recommended.

    Thought provoking! Hilarious educating
    This is exactly what I've been waiting for to listen. Their dialogue between on race is as thought provoking as taking a class on race in college.

    Held My Interest Throughout
    I like that these guys are talking about and trying to understand race.
  • Bill in OKC
    Like eavesdropping on a smart conversation
    It took me a few minutes to get the feel of the banter, but once I did, I really enjoyed the honest, thoughtful discussion. I think I might learn something too. • On a technical note: the volume level is much lower than other podcasts here; perhaps that could be fixed in future casts.

    Guys are Hilarious
    Really fun listen for commuter

    Refreshing and entertaining
    This is a winner. These guys tackle tough issues in an entertaining and insightful way, without the typical political spin. They impressively manage to express strong opinions on sensitive subjects without being overbearing.

    Hilarious!
    My ears have been impregnated with excellence. This show is awesome!
  • MunsonKing
    Honest, raw and provocative
    My new favorite podcast. A wonderfully real (and at times hilarious) look at race in America. Chris and Tim have a pulsing energy together. Can't wait for more episodes!
  • Morris123
    game changing look at the state of race
    finally an uninhibited (not to mention hilarious and boundary pushing) forum for working through the issues of talking about race where no one emotion is more are valid than the other. I feel like my shrink would be proud of these guys.

    That conversation we’re waiting for
    We’ve heard a lot about America needing to have a discussion about race that never seems to happen, just as civil rights issues continue to boil over across the country. Here are two friends from New York, one black, one white, who just dive into it. Anything is fair game, it seems, and both Drummond and Struby are brutally frank. Could I date your daughter? NO. Well there you go. The show jumps from very personal discussions like that, to hot topics ranging from police harassment to unfairness in college sports. You’re privy to a real conversation about longstanding and everyday race issues where both guys are asking questions about things that we all want to know about…but probably wouldn’t dare bring up in mixed race company, not without some queasiness, at least, and not without risking a seriously politically incorrect comment at worst. While you get to be a fly on the wall, Struby and Drummond have that conversation for you. This podcast is painful at times, because they’re not afraid to keep it 100 percent real. No weak tea comments here. It’s also funny in places, because you can relate to, or imagine, a lot of situations the duo discuss, in sometimes hilarious, high-pitched incredulous tones. I’d subscribe to this podcast. It’s going to be frank, fun, and just maybe it will help make it a little easier for the rest of us to open up about race. And just maybe that will help us all make a little headway in getting beyond it.

  • Grace from ATL
    Wildly Entertaining
    Interesting conversation and perspective on relationships and race. Great to see this topic talked about openly.
  • SweetM1622
    Powerful but Entertaining (& funny) Take on Real World Race
    I am blown away by these two mens ability to face honest cultural differences between their races. Their ability to open the door to their honest emotions when trying to understand cultural differences is empowering. There is so much truth and honesty to their conversations that many are too scared to have. I am incredibly moved but also highly entertained - great voices and energy! Bravo Chris and Tim. You knock this out of the cultural park! Can’t wait for more.
