Halfway Human
Halfway Human isn’t here to play nice. We don’t care about your résumé, your follower count, or how perfectly you’ve polished your personal brand. This is where the mask slips and the real you steps in.
Each episode, we strip away the curated image. No titles. No slogans. No PR gloss. Just raw, unfiltered conversations with people brave enough to go off script. Entrepreneurs. Mascots. Cultural agitators. Nobody escapes the question: Who are you, really, when no one’s watching?
It’s therapy meets cross-examination. It’s awkward silences and unexpected truths. If you’re done with shallow interviews and desperate for something that actually hits, welcome to Halfway Human.

Today on Halfway Human, we sit down with San Antonio Poet Laureate Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson. A mentor, performer, and truth-teller, Vocab has spent decades using poetry to open doors for healing, expression, and connection. From classrooms and detention centers to national stages, her words carry both strength and compassion, and during our conversation she even shares a spontaneous, improvised poetry moment that captures the heart of her work.
