Behind The Wheel Podcast

Kyle Rittenhouse is a murderer PERIODT!  Rittenhouse is not a hero, he's a homegrown terrorist, he's not defending the American way of life.  OMG please with the 17 year old boy narrative, trying to humanize his vicious intentional actions.  I don't care how they try and spin this murder, Rittenhouse was not resolving any issue.  Armed vigilantes are not deputized police officers.  Police officers in Kenosha are partly responsible for the murder of the two people who were killed and theres enough blame to spread around to Tucker Carlson, Fox Media and the guy occupying space on Pennsylvania Ave.

Also on today's episode , Joe Budden to walk away from Spotify, The Slackers hide $10.8 Billion happy birthday Jeri Vellareal.

We're living in exciting times, even though there's madness happening in our nation, I'm choosing to identify speak on it and move on.  I choose to tap into the best that resides within myself and those around me.  This strategy works for me, it has helped me connect with some dynamic people along this journey.  Alex Celestine is a new artist from Wichita Kansas, who after hearing some misogynistic lyrics in a venue decided to remove herself, rather than sit in agreement with the performance.-in so doing she found her voice.

Here we are again, another shooting of an unarmed black man.  What could possibly justify shooting an unarmed black man in the back at close range?  I'll wait.  There's no justification.

I caught a brief rundown on the RNC last night, after hearing a few of the speeches it was clear to me that you have to have a strong stomach for politics.  Politicians flop more than Valde Divac.

Last week was the anniversary of me being called into the police station in Stamford for questioning because a white girl felt uncomfortable and jumped out of my vehicle, I didn't think much of it at the time.  I reported the incident to Uber incase there was any black lash or claims of injury submitted to the insurance company; after a conversation with a friend who's an attorney, I was left with my jaw hanging.  Brenda asked "Why did you go into the station with out an attorney?"  I said: "I just wanted to get it over with."  Why did I say that?  In my mind, I figured I didn't do anything wrong so I didn't have anything to hide. 

Brenda was sharing her 20 plus years of experience with me and it helped to shape the direction in which I'll take the trailer I submitted to the PRX Google Podcaster Program.  Brenda asked if I just want to get through the episodes or do I take the time to do research, edit produce and secure guest for the show, the answer is NO! No, I don't rush through the process.  Brenda, said thats exactly why so many people are hemmed up in the legal system today, because they just wanted to get through it.

This episode was inspired by a recent Medium piece I wrote about Entrepreneur, a new song by Pharell and Jay-Z.  Even with all of the positive images in the video some people still managed to focus on supposed drama from years ago between Jay-Z & Nas.  Drama and Trauma sells I guess.  So here's the deal, some people think that Jay-Z intentionally drops music on the same day as Nas.  No one can stop your shine!  As a customer I'm not thinking about if I should get Nas or Jay, if their projects is are bangers I'm getting both.  It's not an either or option.  When we were purchasing CD's, the clerk never stopped you from purchasing a Nas Song because Jay-Z dropped an album, you weren't forced to by a Jay-Z album. 

That whole line of thinking comes from a scarcity mentality.  It made me reflect on a few incidents within the podcasting space, I don't owe anyone any explanation about topics I select, who show I may be guest on, who I have on my show or when I release an episode and vice versa.  I want us all to win!

Radio has been around for ages and chances are it will continue to survive, however podcasts are on the rise and continue to evolve.  If you have a voice, a business or something you're passionate about you should have podcast.  If you're an author, entrepreneur an artist or anyone who has a message and you're trying to get that message out into the world you should reach out to a podcast host and get on their show.

Pharell and Jay-Z dropped a new song, Entrepreneur as a stand alone piece is low key, however when you sprinkle the images message on top of the beat and lyrics it immediately elevates the song.  Yet some choose to focus on 10 words, I shared a few thoughts on the topic in a medium post: Do You Listen To Rap Music or Do You Just Skim Through It? After watching the video I finally decided to read the LA Times article.

We are CT #1 Podcast for running and entertainment also known as #RUNUTAINMENT.  I think it's wise to have a healthy respect for those who might be doing something similar to you or who have gone before and paved the way in a particular industry.  But, the days of waiting for the gatekeepers to put you on are over.  If I was an artist I wouldn't be waiting for an old media establishment to put me on, especially one that's living in the backdrop of NYC.  CT. Artist deserve better, CT. Audiences deserve better. CT Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses deserve to have an outlet that speaks to the culture, thats from the culture.  They need a media/broadcasting outlet that's about uplifting the culture.
