Justin Richmond on Getting Two Degrees Without a GED, Meeting Prince, and “a Bunch of Happy Accidents” + Cam’s Top 5 Hip-Hop Artists
Description
On the latest episode of Off the Edge with Cam Jordan, Cam is joined by Broken Record co-host and producer Justin Richmond. The two bond over their Cal Berkeley roots, as Justin recalls thinking his college acceptance was a scam, so much so that he drove to campus to confirm it in person. Justin also explains how he was able to earn a Bachelor's and Master’s degree despite never finishing high school or getting a GED.
The conversation shifts to podcasting, where Justin details how he got his start and what it’s like producing and co-hosting alongside icons Rick Rubin and Malcolm Gladwell, plus the pressure of stepping into the role as lead host. Justin shares why Will Smith and Prince are the only celebrities to leave him starstruck, including the mystical moment he met Prince complete with a “purple glow” as the icon walked into the room.
To close it out, Cam drops his Top 5 hip-hop artists, leading to a back-and-forth with Justin over one major name he left off his list.
Off the Edge with Cam Jordan is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media.
