Haitian Millennial Podcast

After an unplanned break, the HMP crew is back with episode 11. A lot happened but one topic was a MUST to discuss. #FREEHAITI: The hashtag was born out of collective frustration and helplessness, springing to life in a shocking act of violence: a botched raid on a gang stronghold in a Port-au-Prince neighbourhood that left at least four Haitian police officers dead, another missing, and their armed vehicles and high-caliber automatic weapons seized. The crew did not simply want to chat from their perspectives so they invited Pablo JeanBaptist, the host of HMI Live who has been following the situation developing in Haiti closely to shed light on what is happening. This episode is not full of jokes and relatable Haitian Millennial stories per usual, but it is rich with a conversation much needed for our generation of Haitian Americans. Hope you enjoy it and kindly share your thoughts with us on our Instagram @HatianMlillennialPodcast .

Welcome back, family! We made it to the double digits, episode 10 is all about being grateful for the continuous support and love! As promised, every 5th episode we will be on location, and this time the crew was at Kalalou restaurant in Orlando Florida. To start the pod, the crew acknowledged the Kanaval season that happened by playing a popular record by King posse. Then, Gigi gave a recap of her birthday celebration which was well spent. The crew received their creative award for 2020 for podcast of the year from Haitian Who Blog. They did the unboxing live and all of the emotions were on display as receiving the physical award is so rewarding during our era! Then the crew got into the topic, which was the etiquette of our culture and our mannerisms. The conversation also steered towards the concept of "pèpè" which is thrifting in Haiti and how there are no systems as profitable in comparison to the US. lastly, the crew discussed the sense of style in certain parts of Haiti due to the lack of role models in that department. Overall Kalalou was an awesome host and the crew got into their bag about the creative culture as a Haitian Millennial.

Without wasting any time, the HMP crew started discussing Valentine's Day and how it is celebrated. Then they pivoted and talked about dating in the Haitian culture, love in the Haitian culture, and what are some traditions that are still valid in our current times. They also discussed the creole language and debated whether it is romantic or not (Phone conversation with The Notepadd & Shirley Dor). Furthermore, Leona opened up regarding her experience in Haiti a few years back in regards to how everyone carries themselves emotionally and how that behavior is translated here in America. The conversation turned serious, as Marc made some remarks regarding the Haitian Media platforms and their responsibilities digitally. Lastly, the crew thanked everyone who voted for the pod to be part of the 2020 class of Haitian creatives!

The crew is back! Will they truly say why they were away? Press play to find out. All we can say is they truly missed you all and could not wait to get together and pod! They caught up and had some confessions up until the 37 minute Mark 37:02. Then the crew discussed Carimi business. At the 45 minute mark 45:00 the current Social Media challenges were discussed and the type of effects such trend can have long term. That conversation led to a more serious conversation about "Clout chasing". Furthermore, the crew sprinkled a bit of politics into the conversation. They talked about the current political state of the US and a bit of politics regarding our beloved country Haiti. Lastly, the crew covers a bit of Disney's new movie "Soul" (potential spoilers) and Sejoe's standup on Amazon Prime called "Nou Chaje Ak Pwoblèm".

The HMP crew is back after taking the "Fête Turkey" holiday off. The pod started with the crew reaping their time off and congratulating Leona on not one, but two huge accomplishments! Then, they discussed the Soup Joumou recipe that had the Haitian community outraged. The conversation took a bit of a serious turn as the crew touched on the effect of "The Grind" mindset in our community and how we can put pride aside and ask for help when in need. Furthermore, they discussed the current praises and critics received by Miss Universe Haiti 2020, Eden Berabdoive. Lastly, the podcast ends with a few tracks from Konkou Chanté Nwèl in Haiti to give you all the holiday feels. We truly hope you enjoy this episode and share it with a Haitian Millennial!

Hello HMP family! Today's episode takes place at a local restaurant in Orlando, FL. We apologize for the background noise in advance but we wanted to switch it up. Our goal is to be on location every 5th episode. If you have a place or any suggested location, do not hesitate to DM us to let us know. In this episode, we discussed "zanmi" or friends in English. The pod starts with a bit of Enposib appreciation, then we get into how everyone is currently doing. We then transitioned into a bit of a Thanksgiving celebration in the Haitian household, and the conversation about having beets in your potato salad got a little heated. We talked about the first friend Leona, Gigi and Marc brought home and how did the parents take it. Lastly, we dived into the biggest question "what good things happen in the club?" were our parents right for telling us to stay out of the club scene? Listen and let us know what you think! Remember, we are on IG @Thehaitianmillennialpodcast. See you all in the next episode, thank you for listening. 

The crew is super hyped for Episode 4! They discuss post Halloween and the beginning of "Cuffing season". Then, the pod got a bit serious as they dive in and talk about family business from a source they deemed credible. Lastly, the crew ended all rumors circulating about Celine D. We hope you enjoy this episode and we sincerely thank you for listening.
