In this episode, we take a trip with host Ronald Young Jr. to the past. Back to college in Richmond VA, at Virginia Commonwealth University. Where our host was just a straight sized teenager leaving his home for the first time and figuring out what type of person he was going to be, and what type of partner her would choose.
