    Ricky Chainz on TikTok fame, finding himself, and rapping with granny

    Ricky Chainz’s life has the makings of a Hollywood movie.

One thing remained constant: his relationship with his grandma. And that relationship would be key to making it on TikTok.

Depth and Empathy

Marc has nailed it again with another original and elegant podcast of depth and ‘realness’. His empathy with guests, on all his podcasts, shines through, and his advocacy of and support for minorities is well known. That’s why I was so shocked, in the Nakkiah Lui episode, to hear him make a brief but heartbreaking reference to threats made against him, things sent to his house. Why do people do that 😞?
