Christopher got a puppy and Jeanette took a little vacation in Rome. Rather than spend the entire episode talking about positive things in the world, we also discuss Andrew Gillum's bid for Governor of Florida and Nike's newest face of their "Just Do It" campaign.

Fresh off a mini-vacation for Jeanette and a work trip in Baltimore for Christopher, it's time for a chat about the weekend box office success of Crazy Rich Asians, conflicting emotions around Omarosa, "The Talk", and a recent report from E:60 on the St. Frances Academy football team.

After a quick catch up about 23 and Me results, holding audience with the Queen, and health social media habits, Christopher and Jeanette discuss black pastors supporting Donald Trump, LeBron James opening a new school in Akron, and the importance of Crazy Rich Asians opening in theaters.

With Christopher in Orlando for work and Jeanette in Nashville for family fun, the plan was for a short episode. You can look at the timestamps to see how that went. Christopher shares his recent published research on diabetes and aging, Jeanette talks about meeting Freedom Riders, and somehow Blue Bell ice cream found a way onto our list of discussion topics.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! Let's chat about the newest exhibit in the National Museum of African American History and Culture's newest exhibit, "Watching Oprah: The Oprah Winfrey Show and American Culture". And, we're almost finished going through Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color. There's a lot to talk about.

The NFL repeats "stand and show respect for the flag and the anthem" five times in a new policy statement. Jeanette is all about that Markle Sparkle in addition to her PhD pursuit. And of course, we continue to go in on Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color. There's a lot to talk about.

There seems to be a growing list of things people of color can't do without having the police called - naturally, we have lots of thoughts. Later, we discuss the artistic intent of Childish Gambino's "This is America" and the the wide range of commentary about this timely, relevant music video. Finally, we continue to go in on Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color.

Enough time has passed since "that Starbucks incident" that there's actually some meaningful commentary to fuel our discussion. After we explore the bizarre necessity to have straight, white men validate the existence of everyone else, we dig into Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color.

Recapping recent, unfortunate events of America's trouble with race, lead us to find happier topics to discuss. Take Grown-ish, for example. When it gets it right, it really gets it right. And, we bend the knee and pay homage to Beyoncé's Coachella performance.

After a quick catch up on Jeanette's dissertation, Christopher and Jeanette recap the speeches and powerful moments from the March For Our Lives, and discuss Netflix's On My Block and some recent episodes of Black-ish.

After a brief chat about the Oscars and Jeanette getting a chance to see Christopher at work, it's time to dig into our thoughts on Black Panther, the value of representation, and the risk of cultural appropriation. We don't spoil the movie, but the conversation is more fun if you've seen it. Then, Jeanette introduces Christopher to the docu-series, "The Loving Generation" and a the diverse perspectives on race and identity that come from the generation of biracial children born between 1965 and 1985.

So we open our conversation with our expectations for the movie before discussing representation at the Winter Olympics in PyeongChang and share our thoughts on the official Obama portraits that were unveiled at the National Portrait Gallery.

This time Christopher's travel got in the way of a traditional recording, but delayed flights won't stop him and Jeanette from discussing Colin Kaepernick's donation and nonprofit awareness spree, A Wrinkle in Time's Black, White, and Brown barbies, the beauty of the Black Panther's Purple Carpet premiere.

Jeanette has returned from her international adventures to talk about her sixth trip to South Africa, the difference in international interactions from now compared to 2008, how our President's remarks are viewed around the world.

The reaction to Meghan Markle's engagement is in, and it's not pretty. Christopher and Jeanette spend most of the podcast discussing the reaction from a variety of racial perspectives. There's also some chat about the value of identifying as biracial, and a recent piece from the New York Times about a family that adopted and soon after returned a baby they didn't know was black before they met her.

Thanksgiving 2017 included a family viewing of Girls Trip, naturally we had to discuss that one.

What are we going to do for our next episode?

Jeanette files her report from a very black Association for the Study of Higher Education conference. Christopher mistakenly campaigns for Beyoncé on Broadway. And more importantly, we discuss the promising prospect of improved diversity and representation coming out out of the 2017 elections in Virginia - and across the country.

Christopher got a little distracted talking about the racial dynamics at play with his new house, and recent trip to Richmond, VA for a diabetes event, but we got back on track reminiscing about the Million Man March and the importance of religious leadership in black communities. Then, Jeanette educates everyone on Kristen Renn's Multiracial Identity Development Model before we dig into the next 5 items on our list of experiences of racially mixed people.

After we recap Jeanette's weekend in Williamsburg, VA, it's time to talk about Eminem's performance at the BET Hip Hop Awards and the complicated position of allies in the effort to equality.

Finally, our list of 50 experiences of racially mixed people continues with some talk about the company you keep.

It seems like the conversation about the NFL and peaceful protest has come and gone, but Christopher and Jeanette take the time to discuss the challenges that come from trying to establish common ground and getting personal experiences validated.

In this special bonus episode, Jeanette takes the mic and holds a one-woman therapy session to talk about NFL players opting to #TakeaKnee, and the challenges that have developed in talking about this movement (is it a movement yet?). We'll resume our regularly scheduled back and forth next week. Deuces.

Finally, we cover the next 5 experiences of racially mixed people on our list of 50.

After a quick check-in on the #OhBetsy story of the week, Jeanette shares the motivations behind and initial reaction to her new hair style.

Finally, we begin a new regular segment on the podcast: 50 Experiences of Racially Mixed People, starting with the first five on the list.

Let's settle in for a quick and thoughtful discussion about diversity at conferences, diversity in Spider-Man: Homecoming, our dear friend, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos (#OhBetsy), and that Buzzfeed quiz about stereotypically white characteristics.

Jeanette has returned from San Francisco a year wiser, ready to talk about the verdict in the Philando Castile murder, and the resulting conversation after years of unarmed African American men being killed with, what appears to be, no justice. Additionally, we discuss the regular interruptions of Senator Kamala Harris, and the best approach to identifying and resolving conflicts. Finally, we both saw Wonder Woman. And loved it.

Scheduling conflicts mean Christopher is riding solo for this episode. But there's still opportunity to talk about Bill Maher using the "N" word, and why Motown often requires a certain type of musician.

After a brief back and forth about monuments to the Confederate Army and some genuine diversity in 'The Bachelorette', we discuss the heartbreak and fallout after the murder of Richard Collins III on the University of Maryland campus. And, Jeanette (finally) saw Get Out, and we have lots to talk about.

Did you watch the White House Correspondents' Dinner? Jeanette did, and one particular moment spoke to her. Later on we discuss Education Secretary Betsy DeVos' commencement speech at Bethune-Cookman University and the tricky dynamic of interracial relationship, fueled in part by the release of the Netflix original series 'Dear White People'.

After a short revisiting of family history around Christopher's diabetes diagnosis, our conversation focuses on two noteworthy movies in the African American communities. First we discuss 'Moonlight', and explore the complexity of the stereotypical "strong black man" archetype. And Jeanette shares her thoughts 'The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks' and the tendency for many stories to default to a "white savior".

Our thoughts on Pepsi's tone-deaf commercial lead us into a broader discussion about representation in pop culture. From the Fast & Furious franchise to Shondaland, we cover some ground and expand upon the idea that seeing yourself represented on screen is a form of validation. Finally, CNN's Jeffrey Lord has us wondering what it takes to effectively create and communicate empathy in conversations about race.

The majority of our conversation this week revolves around critical race theory, its origins, its application to Jeanette's research, and representation within the diabetes community - something that Christopher can personally speak to. Finally, Jeanette would have words with anyone who wishes to discredit Congresswoman Maxine Waters or April Ryan with a shoutout to the conversation generated around the #BlackWomenAtWork hashtag.

After dusting off our Beyoncé impersonations, it's time to talk about white male privilege and some of the intellectually stimulating conversations Jeanette had at the 2017 NASPA Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas.

Finally, we share our thoughts on the recent wave of racist flyers that were posted on the University of Maryland campus. Get ready.

After we recap Jeanette's trip to Los Angeles and the Critical Mixed Race Studies conference, we dig in on the perception around our "blackness". Along with how we perceived race around us growing up in Northern Virginia, and what propelled our efforts to embrace our diversity after college, we also discuss how our "blackness" is noticeably perceived by others. Finally, we have many thoughts on the comments made by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos about Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Many thoughts.

Who are we? Why did we start a podcast? What's up with Jeanette's PhD pursuit? After we run down some introductions and a syllabus for the podcast, we get down to business to discuss our experiences at the Atlanta and Washington, D.C. Women's Marches.

Introducing Mark All That Apply, a conversation about race, between siblings Christopher and Jeanette Snider. Before we formally get the party started, we need to get our RSS feed up and running. So here's a teaser to whet your appetite.
