The wait is over! On February 11th, we'll be releasing the first episode of season two, titled Living For We: Keep Ya' Head Up.

This season, we're asking what can be done to reverse cycles of violence and retaliation when shooters value their reputation over their own lives. We know where this violence occurs, we know what drives it. How can we start Living For We and decrease the violence? 

We'll talk with people who are navigating streets where gun violence is normalized – seen as no big deal, while at the same time ruining lives. We'll listen to those fighting for their children and their communities, putting in work to uplift their neighborhoods and create meaningful change. This is more than a podcast, it's a resource for communities tired of chaos and ready to build peace.

We're excited to share that this season will also include video! The video version of the podcast will be posted on the Ideastream Public Media YouTube Channel, so make sure to check it out on the 11th! Episodes will release on all platforms every other Tuesday.

In the meantime, want to hear from you! If you have been personally impacted by gun violence, or are working to solve this problem in your community, please leave us a message here. Or, please share this link with anyone in your life who has a story to tell. We might use the voicemail on the show, or call you for a full interview!

We're thrilled to share this new season with you. See you next month, and Keep Ya' Head Up!
