Description
Referential is hosted by Dr. Khaliden Nas to have serious conversations about frivolous topics!
Each episode takes you on an academically informed deep dive into pop culture and media that never skips out on a stupid joke.
Subscribe & join Dr. Khaliden Nas (and the occasional guest!) as we dive into conversations about identity, representation, Blackness, queerness (and so much more) across the cultures that we make; and the cultures that make us.
Artwork by Valentine M. Smith.
Music by Pampered Fists & Anzahlung.
