Am I Woke Enough?

Kam Raslan | Lee Chwi Lynn | Ezra Zaid

Am I Woke Enough?

We start off this week's show with themes social and topical. Kam gets us reflecting on the power of the collective voice and action of adolescents, specifically in the wake of the recent Florida school shooting. Lynn delves into the idea of woke-ness - by what level should we be 'woke' about any issue; should we even adhere to a general standard at all without accounting for the differences in understanding between people? Ezra rounds things up with the burning question of the day: what actually does a football manager do? The trio weighs in on this somewhat enigmatic yet central figure in football - businessman, leader, father figure (and sometimes ego and temper) all rolled into one.
