In this episode of SafeTalk, the SafeZone crew dives into the headlines and stories shaping our world right now—from K-pop and hip-hop drama to video game launches, anime news, and community issues that hit close to home. The group shares what’s trending in their lives, how global events connect to their everyday experiences, and why staying informed matters.

You’ll hear honest takes on everything from K-pop’s global takeover and the latest music controversies to the rising cost of gaming, movie recommendations, and the realities of giving back. The conversation also touches on the drug epidemic, the power of community support, and what motivates young people to make a difference. Whether it’s pop culture or real-world challenges, this episode is all about youth perspectives on the news that matters most.

This work is funded in part by MHC with money from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund that was created with the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

Created by Youth Advocate and Recording Arts Specialist Tek Burch, the Face to Face SafeTalk Podcast opener blends music and spoken word to spotlight youth truth, justice, and hope. It sets the stage for honest conversations, celebrating strength, breaking barriers, and amplifying youth voices in a space where every story matters.
