All are welcome, none will be judged, but all are challenged to look beyond ourselves and our notions of how others think about issues of cultural​,​ political and social significance. We are building bridges of communication between the many groups that make up the St​. L​ouis Metropolitan Region by sharing and reflecting on the stories and lives of a diverse group of guests.

Tangazo - a Podcast from KDHX was created March 2018, by its host Hank Thompson and producer Andy Heaslet with a drum sound track created and performed by the late Dhati M. Kennedy.  ------
 
It is now confirmed that on Thursday February 15th, the Tangazo podcast will begin broadcasting live on kdhx at 12 noon until 2pm. ------
 
This current episode of Tangazo, focuses on the recently held Iowa and New Hampshire presidential primaries elections, their results and significance to the November general elections.
 
Our guest included 6 Tangazo frequent contributors, political consultant Tim Person, activist Attorney Jerryl Christmas and Michael Wesley Jones, of the St. Louis American Newspaper, provided a local perspective on the above mentioned Presidential primary elections.
 
National commentary was provided by former Tallahassee mayor Dorothy Inman-Johnson, who is currently seeking a seat on the Tallahassee city council. Attorney, musician Ludlow B. Creary II, from Long Beach California and former Story County Iowa Supervisor and former Truman State University classmate, Wayne Clinton. 
 
The discussion was lively ,informative and maybe foreboding, with the idea that African Americans, especially young black men were becoming disenchanted, with the Democratic Party and how if that disenchantment is not addressed, helps the Republican Party’s efforts  to regain the presidency.
 
We sincerely appreciate all of the great guests and commentators, who have supported Tangazo throughout the past 6 years and we’re looking forward, to having you join us for our live 2 hour broadcast on kdhx.
 
We also appreciate the staff and management of kdhx, especially the station’s General Manager Kelly Wells, for the support, encouragement and the confidence, they have shown in our ability, to make Tangazo a live broadcast.
