Sammy & Don Appah are two brothers living in London and are the hosts of 'The Family' podcast. Kyrin connected with them via Instagram and loved their mix of humorous banter with deep philosophical questionings. The brothers kindly made themselves available for a discussion on some topics that immediately jump out when listening to their podcast.
The convo started off with some personal role models that have had a big impact for both Sammy and Don. This led into the commonality of the traits that they exhibit. With the recent BLM protests across the world the brothers gave a unique perspective on racism and an ideal world where this problem is solved. Finishing up we talked about family and why across human history we all tend to be drawn to 'home', wherever and however it is defined.
