A bonus episode before our season finale airs next week. On today's show, we discuss an issue that is occurring each and every day with our young and elderly generation. One issue, in particular, that was noticed during the protest against police brutality, we witnessed on live television the abuse that a few elderly individuals encountered while participating in the protest or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. My apologies at the end of my segment my 4 legged friend wanted to voice her opinion, and that's okay..all of our voices should be heard. This episode is not to promote violence, looting, or racism, but to encourage equality, love, and unity.

We are celebrating my baby brother's birthday and what better way to do it by sharing some of our best memories and doing what we do, enjoy life, but the most important thing is to enjoy life as a family. My special guests are Mildred Robinson(our mother), Patricia Starr(my sister-in-love) and Noah(my nephew). Throughout this segment, you may hear Noah taking over the spotlight and that's okay because it's in his blood to shine! Not only are we enjoying each other while looking down memory lane, and sharing some of our dearest thoughts and love for my brother, we are also showing the world that we as a family, as a whole love each other and we believe in sentimental gestures more than lavish gifts. A gesture that you can cherish for a lifetime.  Later on in the segment, we discuss the importance of family and being there for one another even when we face challenges in life. It's called love and support. We hope you enjoy and thank you so much to all of lour listeners for welcoming our family into yours!
