In the final hour, Sherwin opens with a candid discussion about the consequences of centering race in every conversation while simultaneously tiptoeing around it. He argues that many people are living under an illusion about how white Americans truly feel about Black communities, and that avoiding hard truths only delays real understanding.

The conversation continues with calls from listeners. Adam weighs in on the impact of protests, arguing they create real progress for the community. Sherwin pushes back, saying many of those gains have been fleeting and temporary. Al calls in next, bluntly stating that racist white people lack honor and thrive on mediocrity. The discussion then shifts to policing in schools, with Sherwin pointing to the outcomes many feared—highlighting reports of over $13,000 in citations issued to Black students.

Later, another caller reflects on the day’s show and its themes. Sherwin wraps up the hour by turning his attention to the first gubernatorial debate happening that night, explaining what he wants to hear from the candidates—directness, courage, and substance, saying he wants them to “have some sack” when addressing real issues.
