Plus, the fourth-grade prediction that came true and why his wife, Nessa Diab, refuses to play games with him. 📺 Subscribe for new episodes released weekly! 💥 Follow Street You Grew Up On:https://linktr.ee/streetyougrewupon 🎤 Follow Kerry Washington:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kerrywashingtonTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thekerrywashington Follow Simpson Street:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simpsonstreetTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@simpsonstreet Follow Daylight:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/daylightmediahq/Website: https://daylightmedia.com ➡️ Try ZipRecruiter for free at https://ziprecruiter.com/street to save time and meet great candidates sooner. ➡️ Thanks to Article for sponsoring this podcast!
