Leslie Gray Streeter

Leslie Gray Streeter, journalist and host of ‘Fine Beats and Cheeses’, joins the host to discuss how '90s music criticism discredited the music of 4 Non Blondes. They delve into topics such as '90s songs, memorable holiday seasons, Linda Perry's journey of self-discovery and finding her voice, and the nostalgic elements of music from the '90s.

 In 1988, twenty-year-old American figure skater Debi Thomas headed to the Calgary Olympics to face off against East German juggernaut Katarina Witt. In the process, she became the first Black American in history to medal at a Winter Olympics. Then she disappeared from the sport. Where did she go, and who wasn’t there to catch her when she fell? This week, Leslie Gray Streeter tells Sarah about growing up watching Debi skate, where she is now, how her sport and her country failed her, and just how many people are missing from the stories we tell and the dreams we dream.
