Alabama has a democratic senator?! Push play and hear our pure joy!

What does a white southern democrat look like? Is Matt Jones the prototype? Is there a presidential candidate who can unite the democratic party? Robert Mueller makes his first arrests in the Russian election probe. Why the 2016 election will affect future elections for a long time. Who will ultimately take the fall?

Welcome to our new politics show! I'm proud to team up with Jonathan Lehman of the Brothers Lehman Sports Happy Hour. In 20 mins, we cover 2 political topics. Today's Topics: Electoral College/Why Black Women Pick The Best Politicians

Meet 4 of the phenomenal women that I have the pleasure of knowing. Jasmine, Alicia, Renique, & Jessica speak candidly about Self-confidence, their unique sisterhood, AND they answer a round of "1 Has To Go" questions.

As older people, we can be extremely hard on our youth. For some reason, it's always been like that. Sometimes, it's hard for us to sit back and just listen to what they have to say. This summer STW Center for Excellence held an incredible youth camp for 2 weeks that was free. Everyday guest speakers came in to encourage and teach the kids about their careers and passions. I was lucky enough to be a speaker on the last day of camp. I spoke to them about podcasting, self confidence, and ignoring negativity. The camp director, (my wife :-) ) made a wonderful video to summarize the entire experience. The link is below, check it out! Thank you for listening, and we hope to see these kids next year! https://www.facebook.com/thewhynotpodcast/posts/1125643660905449
