Decoding 40

The episode begins with L.O. and Alaric sharing stories about customer service experiences at a clothing store and a popular taco in Miami.

We discuss the importance of personal space whether on the train, at a concert, or a bar. Mack then shares an uncomfortable encounter in San Francisco that gets a hilarious re-enactment.

Finally, we wrap up the show with a discussion on whether or not the Democrats should pursue impeachment or focus on the 2020 election.

We thank you for listening. Peace.

The crew dives into, how being judged in the public court of opinion can have you perceived as guilty in the court of law.  Also, is the media actually creating division in society?

Next, we take a trip down memory lane as we reminisce about our first cars and jobs. Peugeot's, Celicas, an old school Caddy to cars with no Reverse. And, yes, minimum wage was once $3.50 hour. 

We wrap this episode up with some of our scariest personal moments. 

As always, thanks for listening and peace!

On this week's episode we meet Jaysin with an I. A typical sweater hat wearing gentrifier with a beard from the Mid-West.

From police officers to voting, we explore the different facets of society and how America as a whole cares or doesn't care. We then talk about internet models. Is it all about thirst trapping and fishing for likes?

In this week in racism we talk about the drunken white man who calls black patrons “The N-Word” and “monkeys” inside a restaurant. He is then very bad things happen.

Mack shares his experiences working for the Post Office, working the system and getting smacked by a supervisor. Finally, we all agree, the worse thing about getting old is not being able to bounce back from partying like we did in our 20's and not being able to eat what we want. No more bread, cakes, ice cream and apparently ketchup.

Hope you guys enjoy this episode and don't forget to listen to a new episode every Friday.. PEACE!

In this special Miami Edition, we record from beautiful Miami, Florida. We’re here for Mack’s Bachelor’s Party and we’re having a ball! Don’t miss as we discuss the amazing and not so amazing food (pizza) we experienced.

Jussie Smollett walks! and we don’t care… We talk shooting machine guns and a 50 caliber rifle at Lock and Loaded Miami and why the headphones that they have should be mass marketed to married guys. Of course, we follow that up with IF should we own guns at all…

Then we hit Coyo Taco and we meet the drunk triple fisting Chocolate Rain guy with Falling Down glasses as he tries to start up a random conversation.

Somehow we touch on the Mennonites, selling encyclopedias and Kirby vacuum cleaners back in the day. The difference between a Pyramid scheme and a Sou-Sou and should Jordan Peele put white folks in his movies.

Lastly, we discuss dealing with the police over 40 versus dealing with police when we were younger.

Come laugh and hang out with the Decoding 40 crew.

In this week’s episode we explore dog park racism, we do a re-enactment of the Florida “hey hoe!” Arrest, we offer ways to call the police on white folks, the dangers of smacking Leon’s car and how we feel about NOT giving that “EXTRA” apology.

We also discuss jaywalking tickets, todays teachers going after young men of color and if AFFLUENZA is a real thing. Lastly, we go all the way in on hairlines, WHO needs to give up and go full baldie and we sing a song for Steven A. Smith's Barber…

Don't play yourself and miss this one!
