Bradley Baumeister: Preserving the Outdoors One Watch at a Time

Bradley Baumeister: Preserving the Outdoors One Watch at a Time
Bradley: Thanks so much for having me, Spiffy! At Tropiq, we have made it our mission to help preserve oceans for the wildlife that calls it home and the humans that depend on it. Our love for the outdoors drove us to support the Marine Conservation Institute to help preserve our oceans for the next generation of outdoorsmen. We also directly support Blue Parks, a Marine Conservation Institute program designed to recognize Marine Protected Areas which provide safe zones for endangered ocean life. With each watch sold, we hope to encourage our customers to leave each national park or beach better than they found it.

K. Kenneth Davis: Addressing Financial Illiteracy Within the Queer Community

K. Kenneth Davis: Addressing Financial Illiteracy Within the Queer Community
Kenneth: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Through The Trans Capitalist L.L.C, I am addressing financial illiteracy within the LGBTQIA+ community, heavily focused on the transgender community. The statistics are horrible for the transgender community, especially trans* people of color. Did you know that the trans* people of color unemployment rate is four times higher than the national average? Did you know that it's said that trans* people are likely to have a salary of $10k/ year? These statistics are accurate because I lived that life where I was transitioning (female to male) myself. So, I want to make sure that any trans people or LGBTQIA+ do not have to go through that, or if they did, I want to make sure I can help them get back on their feet to feel empowered, knowledgeable, and inspired.
