Choosing Joy

Elton Anderson on Travel, Detroit Roots & His Wildest Holiday Confessions | Holiday AF

24 Dec 2025

Description

Photographer, filmmaker, and world-traveling creative Elton Anderson joins Holiday AF for a hilarious, heartfelt, and joy-filled conversation with hosts Deborah Joy Winans Williams and MAJOR.. A proud Detroiter with Liberian roots, Elton reflects on growing up in a house that served as the family’s holiday hub — a place overflowing with food, community, and culture. Now living an international lifestyle, he shares how his holiday traditions have evolved, how he balances family time with travel, and why Christmas in Zanzibar is at the top of his wish list. Elton opens up about discovering photography at 27, building Creators of Color in response to #OscarsSoWhite, and creating Lens of Culture, his travel show highlighting Black millennial experiences around the world. From Detroit to Ghana to the Dominican Republic, Elton explains why representation behind the camera is just as important as what we see in front of it. Of course, things get festive and chaotic when the beloved Holiday AF game “Naughty or Nice” begins — revealing one-night stands abroad, gift-related breakups, and a hilarious sip-or-suffer confession round. This episode blends culture, comedy, travel, creativity, and community — everything that makes the holidays meaningful.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
