Welcome to season two of Seventh Fire Pod! So stoked to be back in the saddle and off to an amazing start with the Chelsee Petit of the indigenous streetwear store Aaniin! Evan and Allison chop it up LIVE from the drop-in floor during one of the NYRC's Maamawi Culture Nights!

Recorded earlier in 2021, we sat down with Qua and Grace from the venerable podcast Call Her Aunty. A "podcast from two Ojibwe chicks trying to live their best life in the city". We talk about how they came to podcasting and what their journey has been like. They gave us so much insight on how to run a successful podcast and what to keep in mind in doing the damn thing!
