So much HAS happened in this last week. It's challenging to keep up. In the future, I will be producing fewer episodes but more current with improved quality; that being said, this episode is about racism and its impact or lack thereof on a person's ability to succeed—for example, The Country Music Award.

(CMT)Anthony Mackie hosted the show with a performance by R&B singer Monica and other Black performers and the response to a reporter who complained about it. When Goes Wrong.

BACK IN 2016, Elon Musk Elon Musk spoke to CNBC about the possibility of universal basic income. At the time, no one could see the pandemic ahead. But the subject came up again in 2020, coinciding with stimulus payments. While I agree there will be a need for UBI, it's not entirely from automation. The change coming about is fundamental down to the bones of who we are and what we want to be, and with that change comes the consequence.

Are we ready? Elon Musk has bought Twitter. While we all celebrate being unchained as it were, What happens now?

What changes? What is normal? Do you believe we will ever return to pre-pandemic normalcy?

When I first heard Cam Newton's statements, I, like everyone else, was triggered. I thought Cam's views were outdated and that he was a part of some attack on Feminism(Not that the latter isn't true, however, that is another Podcast). As I began to really listen to what Cam Newton was saying, I realized. What he was really talking about was Authenticity. In the second segment, we expand on the rest of the interview.

When is a woman responsible for the actions of a man? When he cheats? If he decides to walk up on stage and slap a man over a supposed slight?

If you didn't know, Chris Rock made a lame joke about Jada's hair or lack thereof. Will Smith appeared to laugh. Jada did not. Without warning,  Will walked up on stage and slapped Chris Rock. People in the audience laughed. Jada laughed as well. The supposition is this incident was an unscripted joke until it wasn't. Suddenly, a shocked audience dug up a two-year-old Red Table Talk starring Will, Jada, and infidelity. And now, the reason Will lost all his mind was because of Jada. Jada made him do it. Somehow she was responsible for his lack of control. She was responsible for his narcissism. With a slap heard worldwide, Will Smith lost all agency for his behavior.

Some Black women applaud Will Smith's overreaction. They say he was defending his woman. Was he, though? How did Will's slapping of Chris Rock honor Jada? She didn't like a lame dud of a joke. So... Will behaving like an asshole was not chivalrous. It was an egotistical action that did nothing but drag Jada through the mud.

These are my thoughts. What are yours?

Rewatching the Red Table Talk with Will and Jada and reassessing their marriage and what they have been going through. The truth behind their marriage.

Jada spoke more about emotional immaturity and how she changed as a person. Once again, Jada is villanized for Will's actions. Perhaps we ought to revisit the table for the truth. And then there are the reports of the Oscars producers lying about asking Will Smith to leave. Is this an attempt to cover their safety incompetence?

Do you believe the consequences of Will Smith's actions are enough? Does it Even Matter? What are your thoughts on the matter?

Almost everyone who has not lived under a rock has heard about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock live on stage at the Oscars. I shed some light on what Will Smith might have led to the infamous slap. New York State  District Attorney has suspended the criminal investigation against Donald Trump Organization in other news. I wonder why... An Evidence problem, maybe????

Joe Rogan made an announcement. He said he would no longer have Politicians on his show. This podcast responds to Youtuber A Black Conservative Perspective, which disagreed with Joe Rogan's Decision. Did You Know "tipping is rooted in racism"? According to our favorite historian, ironically speaking, of course, Nicole Hannah-Jones(The 1619 Project Author). It is—my response to this nonsense.

I want to thank you for your support While I've been away. Thank you. May God Bless you.

March 8th was international women's day. Women's history seems trivial in the wake of what is going on. I argue it's essential for women how women have only had the vote for a little over a hundred years and full rights,i.e., the right to own your own home, open a bank account and take agency in the direction of your life for about  60 years. Still, the narrative is about is that feminism has failed women. I say women have failed women.

The N-word is a bear trap meant to lure unsuspecting white folks into racism. Why do I say that, you ask? Well, Joe Rogan being the man he is, was discussing its Use. My complaint, you might say, is why such an antiquated, negative epithet needs to be in circulation outside of a minimal context. I often wondered how a black American could look at their son, their husband, their friend, that N-word and agree that such a word was somehow powerful. Joe Rogan's Use of the word, even though he is not a racist, is weaponized to label him something he isn't.

So I ask why is the word in Use in 2022?

These are my thoughts. What are your thoughts?
