Everyone has a dream. 

But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad.

In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears. Guests will transform their own perception of their potential and walk away a few inches closer to who they want to become. 

Snooze is a show about things people put off, how they conquer them, but most importantly, how they conquer themselves.

This new podcast from LAist Studios will inspire you to ask yourself what you have been pressing snooze on, and inspire you to become the protagonist of your own life.

Beginning Again: Adjusting To Life After Prison

Snooze is still on a break. But for the next few weeks, we're bringing you some podcast episodes you’ll enjoy! In the first episode in our series, we feature NPR’s Pop Culture Happy Hour. On the episode, you'll hear all about Rap Sh!t, an HBO Max series that Snooze host Megan Tan loves.

Pop Culture Happy Hour co-host Aisha Harris and panelist Sidney Madden take us into the world of Rap Sh!t, which is about two aspiring female rappers in Miami. On the show, Shawn and Mia (played by Aida Osman and KaMillion) face challenges as they try to break into the music industry together. Though they face adversity in work and love, the two support each other through it all — and capture their journeys with smartphones, no less.
