About Sour Loss, Sweet Lessons

Knotted is a dynamic podcast hosted by Deshauna Barber and Marvin Echols III. Together, they represent the voices of young, educated Black millennials who found love, partnership, and purpose in a dating market often described as chaotic. This podcast is not just about relationships—it’s about navigating life, love, and growth with honesty, humor, and intellect. Knotted will explore how values and vibes intertwine to shape the way we connect with others, pursue our careers, build marriages, and work on ourselves. Our audience is primarily millennials and older Gen Z listeners who crave fun yet thoughtful conversations about dating, marriage, self-improvement, and cultural dynamics. Knotted is the space where listeners can laugh, learn, and feel inspired to become better versions of themselves while staying true to who they are.
