Welcome back to 50Talk. This is Episode 67 and your Host Victor & Cathy are glad to have you guys back again. Sorry for the late posting of the show but I (Victor) had an extended weekend and time got away from me. 

Yesterday was Super Bowl Sunday and Mrs. Sheryl Lee Ralph sang "The Black National Anthem"  Lift Every Voice and Sing and that put Racists Twitter is a tizzy! I put a few of the on-line comments in the show but you can only imagine the hate from Twitter, mainly because Twitter has turned into a cesspool of White Supremacy lately. She did sing that song well but Cathy and I were confused if we were there do we stand for that song like the National Anthem? 

I (Victor) renewed my CCW License last week and it was a smooth transaction just like I like it. I asked the Sherriff in the Office helping me what she thought of the new gun laws in Ohio since Governor DeWine changed them in June. I was totally shocked by her reply.  I used my Veterans Perks this time to renew so I didn't have to pay the $50. That made me happy. 

Gun Ownership amongst African Americans are up since 2020. In a two month period in June and July of 2022 Applications for CCW in Maryland went from 609 in 2021 to 5,314 in July of 2022 mainly because people want to keep themselves safe after the Pandemic, George Floyd and Jan 6th. 

We have a Black History fact for this week and it's kind of personal because it happened so close to home. We talk about John Mercer Langston he is iconic in our area. So enjoy the Black History Fact and let us know if you knew about Mr. Langston. 

Cathy has a special topic for Valentines Day to share with everyone.  Seven Tips to a Successful Relationship after 50. Yes we are both after 50 and some of our listeners are as well so enjoy the discussion. 

Finally we want to know, Do you Prefer Binge Watching shows or Episodic shows? I think after our discussion we've decided that we are 50/50. We binge watch as much as Episodes. I know I do more than Cathy does anyway. 

Thanks for joining us this week and please pay attention to the sky's and be on the look-out for Balloons. Seems like this is becoming a big problem all around the world.
