Being a role model sucks. The pressure of living up to a standard you never set, always second guessing what you say or do because you’re not sure who’s watching, feeling like you can’t make your own mistakes; all of it is high-key 🗑 

This week’s  BEAM Me Up podcast is absolutely loaded as the gang  discusses the pressures of role modeling and how too often our actions as individual Black men, are used to draw conclusions on an entire race. Also: how does social media impact this stigma? How do you speak out against your friends acting a fool? Druski’s deleted skit and more.
