This week, we are talking di tings with Braxton Parr, a visionary video producer with a deep love for music and film. With his own venture, Above Parr Studios, Braxton is not just building a career; he is crafting a legacy. However, his vision goes way beyond personal success, as he also desires to create opportunities for marginalized youth by providing them access to high-quality media equipment.
Braxton's impressive portfolio includes works submitted through a program that provided him the opportunity to attend the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, serving as a supervising video producer at Wine Enthusiast, and contributions to his father, Russ Parr's films—a name synonymous with excellence in radio, directing, and acting.
Braxton’s story and his desire to empower the next generation of filmmakers and musicians is truly awe-inspiring. We discuss why music is a universal language, Caribbean food wine pairings, his love of Jamaican food, travel, and so much more!

To say love is in the air this week, would be an understatement. Both Valentine's Day and the global release of Bob Marley's "One Love" biopic fall on the same day!
Love, arguably, the most complicated the four-letter word. It is an enigma, an emotion that has been romanticized, philosophized, and scrutinized for centuries. How do you define love? Is it all sunshine and roses, or does it have more intricate layers? In this solo episode, Ash is 'talking di tings' about the complexities of love. She discusses how childhood experiences shape our perceptions of love, resulting in people having varying definitions of love, intentional betrayal, and the profound impact of unconditional love. So grab your tea, coffee, or a glass of wine, and let's talk di tings!
