I had the opportunity to chat it up with Phil following the finale of the series about the origins of the show and what was the motivation behind curating content such as this. As I was blessed to be a part of the Atlanta leg of this production I was afforded the opportunity to experience Atlanta's Blackness in an immersive way. That was due to Phil's vision for the show, as the "Branded Development Lead" at Tastemade a position that he pretty much created and "fought for" was one of the determining factors for this show's genesis.
