This week’s episode opens with a powerful reflection on responsibility and the theme: “We keep asking where the community went… but are we building it?” We challenge listeners to consider their own role as today’s community leaders.

In Segment One, we explore the fading presence of mentorship programs like Big Brothers/Big Sisters, asking what happened, why fewer people are stepping up, and how we can revive mentorship — even informally.

Segment Two takes a critical look at youth sports, questioning whether today’s emphasis on image and social media has replaced the joy of play. The conversation shifts to how adults show up for kids and what real support looks like.

Segment Three delivers a News Update on the recent New Orleans prison escape, sharing new details on the remaining fugitives and the systemic failures that allowed it to happen.

In Segment Four, we break down new hip-hop drops from artists like Mavi & Earl Sweatshirt, Machine Gun Kelly, Key Glock, Ken Carson, and Lil Baby—highlighting trends and standout tracks.

The episode wraps with a call to action, urging listeners to take one small step this week to make their circle feel more like a real community.
