In this episode of The Salad Bowl Podcast, we sit down with Orlando Primo — a proud Guyanese community influencer making powerful waves in New Orleans. From the sports fields with @the18thward, where he serves as Program Manager and coach, to the healing, soul-shifting rhythms of his drum school @majekfingers, Orlando is a living testament to what it means to lead with intention, passion, and cultural pride.

We dive into his journey from Guyana to New Orleans, his love for youth mentorship, and how the drumbeat became both his sanctuary and his message. This episode is a celebration of identity, rhythm, and the impact one person can have by showing up authentically in every space they enter.

In Episode 11 of The Salad Bowl Podcast, I sit down with my brother in service and spirit — Joseph Pagart, a proud Louisianan whose love for the Saints, Pelicans, gumbo, and good people runs deep. But this conversation goes far beyond sports and hometown pride.

Joseph opens up about the highs of fandom and the heartbreaks of real life — from the courtside excitement of the NBA to navigating personal loss and the silent battles of depression. His story is raw, real, and a reminder that strength isn't just about staying tough… sometimes it's about staying open.

Whether you're here for the sports talk or the soul talk, this is one of those episodes you don’t want to miss.

🎧 Tap in, and take a ride through NOLA culture, emotional resilience, and the kind of vulnerability that can only come from someone who’s lived through it.
