On this episode, Brice tells us about growing up with 4 brothers in Philly, shares a truly inspiring story about how he got into social work, and drops plenty of Survivor tea. Brice gives us an exclusive on recent developments in the campaign for anti-racism action within Survivor and we talk about the importance of diversity and representation in the show.
Brice shares his go to McDonald's order, boxed wine preference, and shares a show he recently binged and loved!
