In this episode of Past Present Pushback, pressure tells the truth.
XO, AZ, and CDA break down one of the most layered conversations of the season — from NFL Conference Championship games and Super Bowl predictions to constitutional voting rights and the evolving definition of family in modern life.
We start on the field with a full recap of the AFC Championship and NFC Championship games, analyzing key stats, defensive stops, coaching decisions, and what separated contenders from pretenders as the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots punch their tickets to Super Bowl LX. XO also reacts to major league news, including Mike Tomlin stepping down as Pittsburgh Steelers head coach and the Steelers’ hiring of Mike McCarthy, and what that means for the franchise moving forward.
Then we slow things down and zoom out.
AZ explains the 24th Amendment in simple terms — how poll taxes once blocked people from voting, why that mattered during the Civil Rights Movement, and how the Constitution changed to protect everyday citizens’ right to vote.
Finally, CDA leads an honest conversation about family today vs previous generations — how expectations, boundaries, mental health, and chosen community are reshaping what “family” really means in the modern world.
