    Damn hearing Dez story makes me sit back and really think before we speak about someone. Have grace on people. You never know what someone has been through in their life to shape them into the person they’ve become. So many of these analysts kill these players when they make a mistake or don’t conform to what they feel is the norm. Their life growing up wasn’t the norm , but they still made it to this platform.God is good !

    Yo, I look at Dez in a whole different light. This podcast just keeps getting better because it destroys the narrative that the media has been pushing about our black athletes. Chad, BMarsh TO the list goes on. Although we’ve always rode out and supported the media hid the true side of our idols. This podcast will educate many generations of young black athletes coming up.

      @pete torcia better question what should we identify as? I know you might want to be PC and say something like "JUST ATHLETES" or try to equalize it, and it may sound nice but it won't be true. Truth is black athletes aren't the same and I'm not even talking about the obvious difference, (physical) I'm talking about the social and economical differences where we've never been equal in any sport. Basketball is as close as we've gotten and even those players can go across seas and be truly appreciated and will get more equlity there than they will in a country that wishes that we could just consider ourselves equal while at the same time we continue to get viewed and treated separately.....How do we do that?

      Man can ONLY find true freedom through Jesus Christ.
      Every person is born a sinner and the wages of sin is eternal separation from God the Father which is hell, but the Gods gift to everyone is eternal life through Jesus Christ.
      God is giving you a FREE gift! You don’t have to do ANYTHING for it but just TAKE IT!
      Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried, and rose again on the third day to save YOU from your sins!
      Jesus gave His life for you to be free from the penalty of your sins.
      Believe and trust what Jesus Christ did for you and you WILL BE SAVED

    I need them to bring a nutritionist on here that also has background in education and understands the implications that structural racism has on health choices in lower socioeconomic communities. It’s sad how ethnic foods are now taught to be unhealthy when our ancestors have survived off it for decades. Healthy foods are foods that are dense in nutrients. Healthy foods are foods that provide you with the necessary building blocks to fuel your body.

      Bri in theory I agree with you -if your talking ancestors from chattle slavery/plantation days until about 50/60 years ago what your saying makes total sense since the vast majority of the foods you listed were literally farm to table. When the Beef you get is from a Fast Food chain, when the potatoes you eat are chips- you see where I’m headed? IMO it’s less about the food itself and more about the process it goes thru to get to your plate. Of course - “Farm to Table” is usually the most expensive food one can buy and it’s most likely at a fancy farmers market or high-end grocer. So we end up eating junk…

      @@cbshine It is a story we have heard 1000’s of times, so no. These dudes should speak on their SUCCESSES. The positive things they are doing, and building, rather than ‘raising that energy’ that we want to die..constantly. You see, we keep saying we want the situation he grew up in to change, but we keep talking about it..keeping giving it energy. No other group does this. They speak on what they are BUILDING. What they are CREATING..not their past. It serves zero purpose, as you should easily be able to see. It changes NOTHING. Sure he can speak on, and do whatever HE wants, but if we are to ever change this, we have to understand that we are a part of a WHOLE, and treat our actions as such. We behave individually. We do not practice group ANYTHING…and feel we have no real responsibility to the group. It starts with stopping the repetition of the same narrative..by not bringing it up when you are a millionaire. Talk about how God/The Universe tends to balance things out by making athletes predominantly come from those tough areas. There are not many suburban-born Black athletes. They are given physical gifts to offset their circumstances. Recognize THAT. Preach about that..so more of THAT energy manifests. What you focus on..STAYS real..and we keep talking about this same narrative, and it keeps continuing the cycle. We need to reshape our culture…because this one..is not working.
