Churning out dope content aint easy. Since beginning down this path I've tinkered and toyed with a few different formulas in search of a platform unique to the podcast world. By George I think I've got it! Episode 5 is a return to what inspired me to do this in the first place. This one's for everyone who's sat on the phone with a friend and swore at conversation's end that you should start a podcast. Taking it back to the purity that convinced me that I revolve around greatness. 5 separate conversations with 5 of my people, Matt Neiman (the pragmatist), David King (the producer), William Montgomery (the piece of work), Charles Johnson (the quarterback) & June Carryl (big sis the prolific actor) combined in order to form a more perfect union. Who's gonna win the culture war raging in our country? Black love & and brokering the black vote. Adventures from Raseda, CA to HULU's Helstrom and back! All that and then some on episode 5 of The Whole Hard Truth.

This is part 3 of 3.

What with the podcast being new and all one could imagine how happy I am to get feedback. Now... the “good” and “bad” I can handle, but the “indifferent” I cannot stomach. Recently while scrolling through my Apple podcast reviews I saw one that would definitely in the “bad” category of the feedback loop. And so... to that reviewer EODBRANDONBAKER, I dedicate this episode of The Whole Hard Truth. Oh yeah and a black man got his teeth knocked out (literally) in San Francisco for promoting freedom of speech... so there’s that too. Enjoy.

Part 2.

One cannot title a podcast "The Whole Hard Truth" and try to be PC at the same time. Inspired by a recent, fairly high profile situation in the arts community here in Denver, I chose to tee up "toxic femininity" as the topic of discussion for this episode. Is that even a thing? According to Google it most certainly is, though the phrase has yet to take its place next to its masculine counterpart in the callout culture era we're living in. Far be it from me to NOT stir the pot, and my good friend Annie Iselin (aka Annie My) was kind enough to sit with me and chop it up about some taboo subject matter.

If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, the road to recovery and reunion is lined with mines. 10 years is a long time. A lot goes into an absence like that, from people you love dearly. The past can’t be changed, only learned from. Believe me when I say... there’s still much to repair... but I cherish the work and opportunity to do so.

After marrying for the wrong reasons, what’s left to do but complete the cycle? 7 years in, a sports radio and television career taking off, I jumped ego first into an extramarital affair that broke family indelibly. How much truth is too much? Is there even a such thing? Listen and judge for yourself.

In keeping with the mission of the podcast; creating a culture of unadulterated truth, I’m setting the bar of expectation.

Episode 1 of TWHT is a three part series of a life long conversation about a skeleton in my public / private closet.

With the help of my brothers J.R.(@thotunu1) and David (@avenue_dave) we recap the serpentine route I ran trying to escape childhood trauma. A cypher that reveals how dishonesty with both myself and others drove a decade long wedge between me and two young humans that I love dearly, and am blessed to be rebuilding with.

Thank you all for journeying with.

My guy Jordan Peterson would be proud
