It’s CAREER WEEK on THE SWIRL! And we’ve got a music-filled, jam-packed piece of entertainment for your podcast-listening joys.


We start with some follow-up plans and strategies from our very popular AAPI Checki-In Emergency podcast with Erin Quill & Pearl Sun – just because it isn’t in the news, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. Then it’s time for a quick “Vaccination Update” and a new stab at a new jingle. (Get vaccinated, everybody!) This week’s THIS WEEK IN GAGGERY is next, with a shout-out to our sister Chantal Nchako’s gag-worthy shoe line CHOOBIZ (www.chantalnhako.com), before launching into our discussion of our careers, the navigation of their twists and turns, and how Swirly racial dynamics played a role even in the best of recent times.


Then, in a far-reaching, freewheeling interview, the great singer-songwriter Morgan James talks us through her journey to the center of Broadway, Motown The Musical, Sony Music, Singer/Songwriter Recording Artist for LA Reid, and Producer and Star of the all-female “Jesus Christ Superstar,” punctuated by some choice music excerpts you will not wanna miss. Pick up Morgan’s latest album “Memphis Magnetic,” “Quarantunes,” on her YouTube channel, or on every platform from her website, www.morganjamesonline.com. You are so very welcome.


Songs by Morgan excerpted on this podcast: “I Wish You Would,” “You Know My Name,” and “I Don’t Mind Waking Up (To A Love This Good”) With Ryan Shaw; and excerpts from “Jesus Christ Superstar, She Is Risen”, music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, lyrics by Tim Rice: “Simon Zealots,” and “Gethsemane." 


Enjoy this very special musical episode, and… you know the rest.
