Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
To most of us, the D.C. landscape looks like a sea of federal buildings, metro stations and office plazas. But to practitioners of parkour, it’s a vast urban playground. Parkour is part sport and part meditation, and it’s spreading fast in Washington and the suburbs. Join Kojo for a discussion with several parkour "freerunners."
Guests
- Jesse Woody Parkour practitioner and Co-administrator of the websites www.va-parkour.com and www.americanparkour.com
- Brian Belida Parkour practitioner and co-administrator of the website www.va-parkour.com
