Miss PatWelcome to Season 3, Episode 24. We go back to the Caribbean to talk about Indo-Jamaican and Chinese Jamaican people who impacted the music scene. From performers to producers to distributors, Jamaicans of Indian and Chinese descent had a lasting influence in the creation and/or popularization of dancehall, ska, rocksteady, reggae, and Caribbean music in general. To learn more, we highly recommend reading Miss Pat: My Reggae Music Journey and watching the documentary Rudeboy: The Story of Trojan Records. We open the episode by talking the Vegas Golden Knights winning the Stanley Cup and the disappointing decision by the NHL to ban Pride Night jerseys for warm-ups. We close the episode with a new segment called What We Like where we discuss the animated features Over the Moon and Raya and the Last Dragon.
