MILWAUKEE — It's time for Today's Talker.
Milwaukee Bucks star Bobby Portis launched his new podcast "Keep it a Buck" on Friday. Portis celebrated the launch at No Studios with two of his long-time friends from Little Rock, Arkansas.
The podcast's name is derived from keeping it real or keeping it authentic with the podcast conversations along with the name of Portis' team, the Milwaukee Bucks.
The podcast doesn't have a target audience, but Portis says he hopes Black children gravitate toward it. He also said he hopes that Black men that relate to him and have similar backgrounds are inspired.
Today, President Joe Biden will award National Humanities medals and the National Medal of the Arts. Among the honorees this year: actor and producer Mindy Kaling, singer Gladys Knight, and actor and comedian Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
