Episode 04: Season 3 – Lean on Grace: Standing Together in Harder Times
In this episode of Banta with Toni, Toni breaks down her top pop culture highlights of the week from Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’oir’s candid Breakfast Club appearance discussing mental health, to Luvvie Ajayi Jones’s critique of Brandy’s PR team and the backlash that followed. She also touches on fan reactions to Kayla Nicole’s Halloween costume, Diarrha N'Diaye-Mbaye’s beauty brand Ami Colé shutting down and her transition to working with SKIMS, this year’s Lagos Fashion Week, and more.
The Topic of the Day is Lean on Grace, Standing Together in Harder Times. Toni reflects on the current economic struggles, rising unemployment, and Trump’s recent comments on the killing of Christians in Nigeria. She encourages listeners to lead with empathy, support one another, and consciously extend grace, especially when people’s battles aren’t visible.
As always, she concludes the show with her "Book of the Week" selection, alongside her weekly picks for gospel and secular music. This thoughtful mix provides listeners with the perfect soundtrack and inspiration to carry them through the hustle and bustle of life.
