At the time of this show which was on May 17, 2010, Tom McFadden was a Course Associate in Stanford University's Program in Human Biology. Derrick Davis was a senior in Public Policy with a concentration in Urban and Education Policy, the student of the month for April 2010 for the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Reserach of the School of Humanities, and an undergraduate peer advisor for the Public Policy Major. Together this dynamic duo, the "Rhymebosomes," kindly took time to perform live at KZSU. Thanks so much, Tom and Derrick!
