Our World Our Time Ep mini 74 Anthony Crawford
November 05, 2022 18:16 - 55 minutes - 128 MBThis episode may be the long one thus far. The reason is there was so much to talk about, get off my chest, that I came close to just not doing the Black History segment and was going to post it separate.

Our World Our Time Ep mini 73 The Dahomey People
October 28, 2022 14:39 - 38 minutes - 89.1 MBI had planned on speaking on this for awhile and never got around to it. The Dahomey people were unique for so many reasons. I can honestly say I do this piece of history no justice. You'd have to spend at the least an hour just talking about the beginning stages on what made Dahomey who they were. With that said, I want to say please go do your own research on these people.
Our World Our Time Gotta Stop With Kanye
October 28, 2022 00:39 - 39 minutes - 89.7 MBI said it before and I'll say it again, Kanye is half attention whore and mental patient. His name and actions get views and people talking but it doesn't help anyone. This is episode is a week late as far as posting this goes, but his movements make it just as relevant now as last week. Him being Black doesn't get a pass anymore. We need to get him help or cut him off.
Our World Our Time: The real Horror of Dahmer – Monster The Jeffrey Dahmer Story
October 14, 2022 17:28 - 32 minutes - 74.4 MBSome didn't think the story of Jeffrey Dahmer should be told. The truth is it needs to be told and the way Netflix did it by including all shenanigans shows just how wild it all was.

As of this recording I have yet to watch the last episode. get at [email protected] or leave a comment somewhere.
Our World Our Time: She Hulk
October 14, 2022 17:06 - 24 minutes - 55.1 MBThe running joke, or insult has been The M She U because of all the female characters of late getting their own shows. She Hulk has just destroyed the MCU formula as well as the last few straws of those haters of the "Woke" shows ie anything with female leads. I had to talk about it after watching the whole season. Fell free to email me [email protected] or leave a comment somewhere.
Our World Our Time Ep mini 72 West Side Story
October 07, 2022 18:58 - 21 minutes - 49 MBOne of the greatest American plays of all time has to be West Side Story. The story behind the play is kind of unique. I mean the fact that it all changed because regional location is a bit different. I talk about some other stuff as well, but it is mostly about this play and how it was brought to the world.
Our World Our Time No Inclusion Allowed
October 07, 2022 18:00 - 32 minutes - 74.4 MBThis episode is late because at one point I felt it was too long. I also felt it may be taken the wrong way, as much I completely feel and see the way entertainment become more racists and hating women hard. Just not looking to come off wrong. With that being said I said what I said and from where I sit I said it the way I see it. email me [email protected]
Our World Our Time Ep mini 71 Tony Mendez
September 30, 2022 18:56 - 14 minutes - 32.4 MBSome stories are so crazy that t it can't be real. Tony Mendez was part of the Canadian Caper, please look that up at some point. I also had an alternative motive to speak about Tony Mendez. That would be the film Argo where Ben Affleck portrayed Tony Mendez, a Hispanic man. I had a soapbox moment. With that being said I will do a whole different episode for a rant. As always do your own research and enjoy. Update: The recording the show as well as this episode came before the passing of Hi...
Our World Our Time Ep mini 69 Benkos Biohó
September 24, 2022 01:57 - 11 minutes - 25.6 MBThis is one of those history moments that I couldn't wait to rock with. The night of the show my mic messed up so I couldn't use the clip. With that being said, this just a nice different pace while still giving that history. Thanks to everyone who listens. Get at me [email protected]
Our World Our Time Ep mini 68 British Colonization
September 20, 2022 02:08 - 15 minutes - 34.4 MBWhen The Queen died a lot of dirty laundry came out of the blue. Justified or not one thing is true, The British Empire was all over the place. The history books may curb the evil by saying that is how things went down back in those days, but it doesn't change the damage done. This is late but still something that should be check on. Do your own research and enjoy.
Our World Our Time Ep mini 67 Serena Williams
September 17, 2022 01:14 - 13 minutes - 32 MBThere is only one way to describe Serena Williams, and the is GREAT. Her legacy and wins should be the standard for greatness in tennis.
