Divorce Is Not An Option with Noble and Kim Evans Nov 09, 2021

Show notes

Marriage is the bedrock of the black community yet it's often left vulnerable to attack. The family is where we go to recharge and heal but if it doubles as a battleground then where do we rest and build for the battles awaiting us outside.

Our guests today Noble and Kim have made it their purpose to strengthen black marriage. In part one (1) of this two (2) part episodes, you hear their dynamic story. It's full of ups and downs, stress and strife, but also victory and blessings. They talk openly about the moments life would beat down their marriage, but also the moments of reinforcement that allowed them to build back better through a blessed and ordained marriage.

For those of you married, considering marriage, or considering a relationship this episode will deliver. Tune in.

Make sure you connect with Kim and Noble on their brand new IG page

Introducing Smoke Screen: The Sellout Nov 02, 2021

Show notes

While Black Family - We will continue our 4 part series featuring guests from small-town Mississippi next week. In the meantime, please enjoy a preview from an amazing podcast we think you will enjoy. Introducing Smoke Screen: The Sellout!

Jose Huizar grew up in Boyle Heights – a working-class Latinx neighborhood in L.A. Eventually, he became their councilperson. He ran on promises of solidarity and community. And, for the most part, people trusted Huizar... until the day the FBI raided his home and offices, looking for evidence of corruption. The Feds would go on to say that Huizar led a criminal enterprise based in city hall. He stands accused of taking bribes from luxury developers as his constituents were displaced from their homes.

This season of Smoke Screen is a collaboration with grassroots media organization L.A. TACO. In this 9-part investigative series, journalist and host Mariah Castañeda investigates how Huizar got the power to do what he did, and how the community that raised him paid the price. Smoke Screen: The Sellout is available now wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes drop every Tuesday.

Take The Leap w/Elton Pope Oct 18, 2021

Show notes

Simply put - Get off your tail end and do it....build it...invest it....create it....GO NOW.

Our guest today, Mr Elton Pope brought the funny to the state of Mississippi in a big way. Thirteen years ago he noticed a void in the state and realized that Mississippians needed the space to laugh. With that realization he took it upon himself to carve a path, build a business, and find the success he wanted to see. Elton didn't have experience in comedy but he had initiative. He didn't have contacts but he had passion. He didn't know how to do what needed to be done, but he figured it out. What are you thinking or dreaming about now that you haven't moved on? TODAY is the day - MOVE and Elton gives the inspiration needed to make it happen.

The best time to take action on your idea was yesterday but the second best time is now!!!

Make sure you engage with Elton and Carpe Diem on their website or if you are funny and ready to grow to the next level then hit Elton up directly at 601.709.7894
