Racism, Rigged Elections, and the Wild World of Tyson vs. Paul
What happens when foundational issues like racism and corruption don't sway voters? Join us on Slap the Power as we wade through the emotional fallout of the recent elections, highlighting a national rift in what were once universally accepted values. We grapple with the disbelief and dissonance felt by many, questioning how these deep-seated issues could possibly be overshadowed. In the midst of this uncertainty, we spotlight the valiant efforts of some political figures and confront the chaotic influence of misinformation from digital moguls like Elon Musk. With this backdrop, we stress the urgent need for action towards positive change and a rekindling of the core principles meant to bind us all.From politics to pugilism, we shift gears to the thrilling spectacle of an upcoming boxing match between social media sensation Jake Paul and boxing legend Mike Tyson, streaming soon on Netflix. Reminisce with us about Tyson's nostalgic days from Nintendo glory to intense advocacy for his beloved pigeons. Discover the surprising talents of these underestimated birds, from detecting cancer to predicting volcanic eruptions, and delve into Tyson’s potential plans for a pigeon protection initiative. As we sail through this diverse narrative, get ready to explore the exciting, the unexpected, and everything in between on Slap the Power.Support the showAMAZONCompassion KindPATREONSLAP the Power is written and produced by Rick Barrio Dill (@rickbarriodill) and Aja Nikiya (@compassioncurator).
