In Episode 12 will sits with a good friend and colleague, Michelle Owens to talk about a topic of her choice. This topic happened to be inspired by a book she read, Born a Crime, in which the author had several quotes that had her wanting to sit and dialogue with men and ask the question, why do some of us let unhealthy or abnormal relationships with our mothers have a negative impact on our current intimate relationships. This was a very fun conversation / debate that even resembled a "battle of the sexes" atmosphere at one point that was exciting but also very important as it pushed both of us to ask some very serious questions about ourselves and relationships from the persepctive of both men and women.

Ashley Adams and Black Yoga Magazine

Freya is an avid fitness junkie and Yogi who lives in the twin cities as well as being someone who is very successful in global software sales professionaly. She travels globally almost every week but always finds time to fit in a yoga session. As I've grown increasingly more into my own yoga practice and enjoyed what its done for me physically, emotionally and mentally, I've wanted to interview someone who has been into it alot longer than I have and has more of a proficient knowledge base surrounding it. In comes Freya, someone who I've been playing tag with for over a year to get an interview. Here is her take on yoga, what it means to her and why it's not just a stretching session or another work out craze.

Entering the Mind Of A Yogi

Originally Published a few months ago, this episode was personal moment. A moment where I had reached a breaking point in my life, a turning point and had to vent and let all my emotions out in regards to the pressures and struggles of being an African American in this country. What it means and the toll it takes on many of my fellow brothers and sisters. I hope that this resonates with some of you and can help you through. And for those who can't but have an African American colleague, I hope this gives you a glimpse into the struggle that we deal with on an every day basis that you yourself have the privilege of not having to endure.

When You Can't Go Any Further

In episode 8 of this second season, Will interviews old friend Jacob Hunt to talk about how the recent trial of Amber Guyger, ex Dallas Police officer, and her murder of Botham Jean brings about a complex conversation of how religion presents an interesting dynamic when it comes to African Americans forgiving White America when it comes to inequity in politics and race, and how religion may or may not be exploited to do achieve this outcome. Take a listen and let us know what you think!

Keny talks about his musical inspirations, aspirations and references some of his musical role models.

Music, A Family Matter

In Episode 31 Will speaks on how the age old addage about words not hurting you is in fact incorrect. Much has been said about the end of UFC 229 when Khabib Nurmagomedov squared off with Conor McGregor a year later after McGregor attacked his tour bus injuring some of Khabib's family members and weeks after McGregor insulted his religion, father and nation of birth. While many were suprised about the ensuing brawl at the end of the bout, I contend that it was actually predictable and should have been expected. People always say words cant hurt you but the connection is drawn to how Khabib acted as any human would when they are forced in a corner and pushed to their limits. Much like the behavior of protestors cornering politicians in public places and shouting them out after these same legislators have shown that although they were elected to serve the people, they have in fact been ignoring the people and serving their own private interess while putting their constituents lives and livelihood at stake. With so much in jeapordy, people are actually behaving in the way nature has designed them to and in a realistic human manner by lashing out to defend themselves.
