Sha'Carri, Kids, Consequences,& Celebrity Drama: A 7Sharp Discussion on Modern Society

Join Blu and Roger for a lively discussion on the changing world and the challenges of modern parenting. They talk about how kids today have too much screen time with dedicated cartoon and film channels, unlike when they were young and had limited TV options. The hosts express concern about "lazy parenting" and the rise in children's allergies, noting that kids don't spend as much time outdoors climbing trees or rolling down hills as they used to. The conversation shifts to a discussion of accountability and discipline, inspired by a video of an unruly girl screaming at her mom. This leads to a broader conversation about two other high-profile incidents:

The hosts analyze a viral video of an American athlete named Sha'Carri pushing and hitting a man at an airport. They discuss the man's restraint and Sha'Carri's subsequent apology, which they feel was not genuine and was done to protect her endorsements.

The episode also touches on allegations against UK comedian Mo Gilligan, with a woman claiming he is a "deadbeat dad" to their 18-month-old son. The hosts explore the idea of taking such matters to court for legal financial arrangements rather than airing them on social media.

The show concludes with shoutouts to the One Extra family for their nominations and Nicki Topper for receiving an MBE, before promoting the show's merchandise.

Join Roger Moore & Anthony Young on the Roger Van Moorinho Show on Affinity Xtra as they dive into Jamie Carragher’s controversial remarks about the African Nations Cup. Just days later, Joey Barton made an even bolder claim—suggesting no African-born center-back was better than Jamie Carragher. We break down why this statement is incorrect and discuss the deeper issue of self-worth within the Black community.

Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges narratives and highlights the impact of these conversations.

Join Roger Moore as he sits down with Pythagoras the Praying Mantis, an artist who has been a key figure in the Urban Music scene in Birmingham. Despite growing up just a few miles apart, Roger and Pythagoras never crossed paths in the local Gospel music scene—even though both were active since the 1990s.

In this in-depth conversation, Pythagoras the Praying Mantis reflects on his journey, his 11-album discography, and the impact of discipleship—or the lack of it—on the music scene in Birmingham. They explore the challenges, the growth, and the moments that shaped his career.

This interview is part of a series where Roger Moore speaks with key figures from pre-2005—before the legendary Bibles Bible video changed the landscape. Stay tuned for more insightful discussions on the history and evolution of the scene!
