In The Weeds is about provoking thought, discussion, and the desire to want to further educate. Kevin is a Penn Alum, an Eagles and Celtics fan, and a proud son of Nigerian immigrants. Weekly, Kevin will dive into popular topics, including race, economics, pop culture and sports, to examine angles that are less often discussed but all the more crucial to our society better coalescing and moving forward.... together. He is brash, suffers a bit from 'knowitallism' but he will tell it like it is, and most of all he trusts you enough to figure it out for yourself.
