Welcome to Princess Diaries! This episode features the incredible Joselyn Johnson as we celebrate the return of the 5th Annual Juneteenth Family Fest Charleston, taking place on Saturday, June 20, 2026, at Riverfront Park.

This event holds a special place in my heart because I had the honor of hosting the inaugural Juneteenth Family Fest, and it has been amazing to watch it grow and thrive under Joselyn’s leadership.

Juneteenth in Charleston carries profound historical significance. Nearly half of the enslaved Africans brought to America entered through Charleston, making this celebration a powerful tribute to our ancestors, our resilience, and the generations still to come.

The festival will feature live entertainment, Black art, cultural food, community resources, family-friendly activities, HBCU representatives, and a spectacular fireworks finale.

Join us as we discuss the vision behind this incredible event, its impact on the community, and why coming together to celebrate freedom, culture, and progress matters now more than ever.

Join host Kris Kaylin for a Black Music Month celebration on the Princess Diaries Podcast as she sits down with Travis and Larry Mood of Mood Musiq Entertainment. This inspiring episode shines a light on family, faith, musical heritage, and the power of passing down a legacy through generations.

Larry Mood, an original member of the renowned Ashley Gospel Singers, shares his journey in gospel music and how his passion for bass guitar became a lifelong calling. That same love for music was passed on to his son, Travis Mood, creating a father-son bond rooted in rhythm, ministry, and purpose.

Together, the Moods discuss their experiences performing in churches and at community events, the importance of preserving gospel music traditions, and their commitment to mentoring young musicians. Through teaching children to appreciate and love music, they continue to build a lasting legacy that extends far beyond the stage.

Tune in for an uplifting conversation about faith, family, musical excellence, and the impact of Black music across generations. This Black Music Month feature is a celebration of dedication, mentorship, and the enduring influence of gospel music in our communities.
