How It Started

The All Done Podcast is hosted by lifelong friends Mike &ldquo;Shakes&rdquo; Gatewood and Tracy Branch, two brothers from Brentwood, New York, who bring real conversations to a space that often avoids them.
Each week, they break down current events, culture, movies, literature, and the unspoken realities of American life, all through the lens of two Black men who've lived it &mdash; not studied it from the sidelines. Their discussions are raw, reflective, and grounded in experience, offering perspectives shaped by growth, accountability, and the constant push to navigate a system that doesn't always work as promised.
Powered by See Pro$perity Network, the show stands on the principle of &ldquo;Pro$perity For All&rdquo; &mdash; a phrase embedded in the American promise, yet unevenly delivered. Mike and Tracy don't claim to have all the answers, but they aren't afraid to ask the questions many avoid: Who really benefits? What does progress look like? And how do Black Americans build prosperity on their own terms?
The All Done Podcast isn't about outrage or headlines &mdash; it's about perspective, progress, and growth. Through honest dialogue and evolving viewpoints, the hosts invite listeners into conversations that challenge comfort zones, encourage critical thinking, and move culture forward &mdash; one episode at a time.
