No Bright Spots 2
June 13, 2020 08:00 - 29 minutes - 24.8 MBI write my show notes pretty much for myself I mean who looks at these anyway. This is a part 2 that isn't a part 2 if that makes sense. I didn't plan on recording this nor did I expect us to be in the current state that we are in but here we are. I stayed focused for the most part but I got emotional here and there and started forgetting shit my bad but as usual I hope yall got the point... All lives matter "Hey, get some help I broke my leg...what about my leg" Long Game - Dismantle Stru...
No Bright Spots
May 23, 2020 08:00 - 30 minutes - 27.3 MBYall still listening? Looking at the stats naw not really lol. Just believe me when I say I've been itching to get back to my show.

On today's episode you guessed it i'm talking about this funky ass pandemic again. I don't know about yall but as the magic 8 ball would say the answer is unclear ask later.

You Gotta Be Kidding
April 11, 2020 19:39 - 29 minutes - 23.9 MBIf you haven't realized it yet our kids are the new us. Hopefully better, faster, stronger and all that good shit. I'm blessed to be involved in my kid's lives and see them grow but as the clock turns I think to myself what will they be? What will they remember? What's going to be something they hold in their memories forever. It's wild not that long ago we were kids and we had all these things to say about our upbringing and still do but now it's their time. What impact will you make especi...

21 Questions
February 08, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 48.2 MBThis episode pretty much speaks for itself and yall know I went over 21 questions but you get the sentiment lol. I did something I rarely do in this episode which is answering internet questions for black men or men in general. I generally stay out of these debates unless it's for shits and giggles just because I rarely take the internet seriously. Let me know what yall think. Did I hit the marks or miss the targets?

They're Playing Basketball
January 25, 2020 21:23 - 1 hour - 26.2 MBOn today's episode, we are talking WNBA Basketball and specifically the new CBA. I first heard the news on social media because isn't that how we all get our news these days right. Immediately one individual came to mind to do an episode on this. Now you might ask why I even cared about this news well it's a pretty big fucking deal and it's something I've monitored over the years actually. Fair Pay for the WNBA has been a conversation so to finally see a deal both the league and players agre...
Checks Over Strikes
January 11, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 37.2 MBThe older we get its like the worse we think. The things that most would consider accomplishments we don't even celebrate anymore. We glorify and give more light to the mistakes in our lives than anything or anyone else. Well on Today's episode I'd like to flip that ideology on its head because we need to give credit where it's due. We do so many actions throughout the course of a day and keep ourselves so busy to where there's little to no acknowledgment of the positive things. Hopefully fr...
I Wanna Thank You
December 27, 2019 09:00 - 27 minutes - 19.8 MBI hope yall enjoyed the last episode "I Wanna Thank Me" and I know yall didn't think I would forget about yall. I wanted to take some time out to go down memory lane. On today's episode I'm reading all the reviews that I've gotten over the years. Honestly I never knew how far the podcast would reach or how long I would do this. Like I said on the last episode I want to thank myself for making it to this point with the show. I appreciate everyone that has taken the time to leave a review and ...
I Wanna Thank Me
December 14, 2019 17:59 - 44 minutes - 27.1 MBShoutout to Nic for giving me a bit of inspiration on this one. We do alot of talking, signaling and texting in our lifetimes but how much do we use any of those to thank ourselves. Appreciation goes a long way and Self Appreciation may go even further. I remember learning about interpersonal and intrapersonal skills as a student but we for whatever reason use those skills to benefit others more than ourselves. We have to take time to love ourselves and I mean really love on ourselves not ju...

Here We Go Again
November 23, 2019 09:00 - 45 minutes - 29.8 MBBack at it again with the white vans. One of the most difficult things to deal with for me and quite a few people is figuring out how to make it to the next day. I don't mean like surviving the day to make it to the next because of all the external things in this world. I mean you as an individual dealing with all of the internal things that make you just want to never leave the bed again or just frankly stop living. I'm talking about how you deciding again to get up every morning and get ou...
Our Education System Is Fxcked Up Pt 1
November 09, 2019 09:00 - 59 minutes - 41.4 MBI said what I needed to say in the episode so these shows notes aint even gone do the conversation justice. One thing that has been important to me ever since I could remember was education. Now i'm no genius but one thing I do know from personal experience is that our education is fucked up, archaic, underfunded and needs reform now for the future leaders of tomorrow. I originally intended this to be one episode but the more I researched the more shit I needed to research and speak on at an...
Wow... That's Crazy Episode
October 26, 2019 09:00 - 44 minutes - 29.5 MBBeen a minute since I did an entire episode on music but today is that day. Wale's new album came out what like 2 fridays ago and I didn't really have any expectations which is a really low expectation if you might imagine. I finally checked it out this past weekend and I've had that joint damn near on repeat since. If you checked out the Damn. Episode I appreciate you but this ain't that so there's your disclaimer. Oh yea and I talk some other music shit too. Go ahead and get the album queu...

Are You Bi?
September 28, 2019 09:00 - 32 minutes - 24.1 MBAs you can see by the title this is a question but it's more of a statement even though it has a question mark. Regardless "Are You Bias?" is the question or biased if you want to be technical. My wife and I had a lengthy and at times uncomfortable argusation this Sunday which is what triggered me to even record this one. Bias is damn near in our D.N.A whether voluntarily or involuntarily it's there its like the elephant in the room that we rarely discuss in front of company or even ourselve...

Confrontation Is Good
August 24, 2019 09:00 - 43 minutes - 31 MBThis is nothing new to say but there are a lot of Nonconfrontational people in the world. Yea this includes the thumb thugs but I'm not even really addressing them on this one. I'm direct and I'm aggressive too if I need to be. Today we talk about Avoidance, The Elephant in the Room, Temperature Checks, Timing and I give an update on my tweets about repairing relationships. I'm encouraging everyone to deal with your shit even if it's uncomfortable just consider it Self Care. I started off a...
I Gotta Raise My Daughter In This Shit
August 10, 2019 08:00 - 31 minutes - 22.3 MBThis won't be long but just imagine you are a father of a 5yo black girl during the trump administration. Tell me what fears you have, what sadness you share, what anger you feel and what hope you have in humanity. Well that's me at 32 years old trying to figure out how to navigate raising a child in this world but also allowing her to be a child.

July 27, 2019 09:00 - 1 hour - 61.5 MBWhether you've been here since day one or you just started listening yesterday we are about to take a trip down memory lane. Of course as I usually do there are a few things i forgot to say but maybe ill tell those stories another day. I've been thinking about this for awhile and i got the feeling that it was time to put the podcast into perspective. I officially launched the first episode either late June or early July of 2017 after months of debating if i could even do this. Now here we ar...
When They See Us
July 13, 2019 09:00 - 1 hour - 55.9 MBOn this episode we revisit Ava Duvernay's When They See Us on Netflix. I wanted to give folks time to digest the film and let all the "Ra Ra" die down a bit. We walk through the film from beginning to end which covers the men presently known as the Exonerated Five formerly known as the Central Park Five. As difficult as it was for me to get through the series the first time it's equally as important that we continue to have this dialogue. In addition let me welcome YouTuber and Designer Chri...

Everybody Got An Ugly Phase
May 18, 2019 09:00 - 1 hour - 48.9 MBI had to do some show notes for this one. Hopefully we touched on a bunch of issues but of course there were some things that were left unsaid.

Oversexualization
March 03, 2018 08:00 - 52 minutes - 38.4 MBAs usual i'm all over the place on this one but I hope I hit the main point home. There's been a lot of conversations and the bringing of a greater awareness to sexual assault and rape over the past year. Today i'd like to talk about a piece that I consider ignored or often overlooked Oversexualization in our modern culture. It's kind of the known unknown so to speak where we are aware and very accepting of it but don't fully understand or expect it's impact long term. Lend me your ear..... ...
