    50Talk Episode 127

    Send us a text Welcome back to 50Talk. This is Episode 127 and today Victor hands over the Hosts duties to Cathy. Thank you all for joining us this week. Before we get into the things we have to talk about we first want to thank our guest from last week, Kyla for joining us again on the show. We hope you all enjoy Kyla as much as we do each time she is on. I had an interesting topic last week about D.E.I. that I will be starting the show with this week. Also Cathy and I were guests on a brand new podcast called " The Mixed Tapes" on Spotify with our cousin Amber and her co-hosts Nikki. They just put out episode one so please do us a favor and please give them a listen as soon as you can.  On to the D.E.I. conversation and we start off with, Why the sudden attack on D.E.I.? Just because the Orange man and his band of criminals say it's bad doesn't necessarily make it bad. We wouldn't need D.E.I. or Affirmative Action if everyone was given an equal chance. The group that benefits the most from D.E.I. is white women. I know people are not worried about any of the changes going on with the Government right now but only until they are personally affected by the changes. I get that, but think of all the people different than black folks that have the benefits of D.E.I.  Since a lot of companies have moved backwards on their Diversity initiatives people are also backing up from supporting these companies. Places like Target, Walmart, McDonald and Amazon are being boycotted since they year has started. My question as a GenX'er is "will young folks be able to live without some of the businesses"? I say that because most of my life their were not to many big box stores like Target or Walmart. I can live without them but it has become a challenge staying away.  The Philadelphia Eagles are Superbowl Champions again this year but never mind that football game, what about that Halftime show performed by Kendrick Lamar? What are your thoughts on the game and the halftime show? Please hit us with an email and let us know your thoughts. The performance wasn't for everyone, admit that and I get it! I had all intentions of ending the show with this food for thought! Why can't Black people have their own stuff? The history that is out there is showing that every time we as black people start to advance in our communities and not rely on other folks those same folks come and destroy it! Why? Cities like Tulsa, Oklahoma were burnt down because " a black kid tried to pick up a married white woman". I could go in on this story for an entire show but I won't.  As long as I have this podcast with Cathy I will always mention the history of Black people and how we have worked hard for everything we have earned. Nothing has ever been handed to us. So keep trying to dismiss our history because some folks feel hurt about what white people did hundreds of years ago so now they just want to try and erase it.  We will end the show this week with a couple things we watched this week. The Netflix Documentary O.J. Simpson: American Manhunt and Captain America: Brave New World. We talked about them so please give them both a watch. Thank you for joining  us this week and we will see you guys next week for Episode 128.

    50Talk Episode 126

    Send us a text Welcome back to 50Talk this is Episode 126. Your Host's Victor and Cathy are happy to be back with you all again this week. We are on a roll, two weeks in a row with a great episode. Let's start off our show with a "Happy Black History Month" even though our government isn't recognizing this month or any other Special Celebration by any other group similar to Black History. This is where we are as a country today.  This week we have one of our favorites joining us this week. Welcome back to the show our cousin Kyla. Kyla always comes on the show and does a great job. She has so much knowledge and brings her great personality each time she is with us. We get right into it with Kyla. "What and when are the Republican Party going to stop President Trump and his boyfriend Elon Musk? They are destroying our government and most of our politicians are just sitting around watching it happen. All I can say is Jasmine Crockett for President. She is the only one in my eyes that is saying anything and doing anything to stop these people.  Cathy and I called our State Representative in Congress and both of us were worried about what we were told and what was said by Mr. Lata's staff. I personally felt like this guy talked down to me and they told Cathy that they don't respond to every News story out there. I think they just took our calls and they responded because tons of people are calling there representatives all over the country. It's Superbowl weekend and who do you guys have winning the game? I think Kansas City will win (again) but it would be nice to see Philadelphia win it all again. The President will be in attendance and the "end racism" that's been in NFL  endzones for a couple years will be removed for this game. Why do we think the reason they are removing it is because the President  will be there? I think a lot of us can answer that question but please, let me know your thoughts on all of this as it pertains to the Superbowl. Please send us an email at victor50talk@gmail.com. In Kyla's neck of the woods in Cincinnati, Ohio they white supremacists have shown up again but this time they had resistance from the community. The historically black community of Lincoln Heights rallied together to remove those folks and burn up their hatred. We need more of this around the country. Peaceful shows of force to show these hateful people we won't stand for this.  Here in Elyria, Ohio we have a prisoner on the run with handcuffs on. It's been almost five days and they can't seem to locate this kid. How does someone in police custody get away with the cuffs on? I will for sure keep you all updated on this story as we here more. I have no faith in the Elyria media but I will find information somewhere for you guys eventually.  Thank you all for joining us this week. We hope you enjoy this long episode with our girl Kyla. We will see you all next week.

    50Talk Episode 125

    Send us a text Hello again and welcomer back to 50Talk. Cathy and Victor are back on the mic's again after our 1st cruise. Yes we are going to talk about it. So get ready to hear all the juicy details. We will give you The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly that we noticed on our little excursion. As older folks we did good flying into a huge city like Miami and got ourselves a Lyft, and we did it a few more times after that. Does that make us Lyft Experts? Any who, on to the important stuff that we have to talk about and of course that being Matin Luther Kings birthday and on Inauguration day this year. Dr. King was a great man for all Americans and would be so sad to see this President and what he is doing to this country on Dr. Kings day. That quiet possibly may have been the last time we (as Americans) get to Celebrate King as a National Holiday the way things have gone this last week. Victor did a thing on MLK Day. He removed himself from a couple different social networking sites. I think it's easier for me to do this because I am a GenX'er. We are the most resilient group of people. Could you guys give up "any social media" today and be okay with never using it again? That's some old people talk right there. A lot of things happened the day Joe Biden left office but, him giving people Preemptive Pardons was insane to me. Insane because it had to be done in our country today due to political differences. This is going to be a fun time the next four years.  A brand new Nintendo Switch has been announced! Y'all know Victor loves him some Nintendo. So stay tuned for further information about that when I hear something.   We hope you guys enjoyed the episode and we will see you all next week.

    50Talk Episode 124

    Send us a text Good Afternoon and Welcome to 50Talk. Cathy and I are so glad to be back with you guys. It's been over a month since we've last spoke so we have some catching up to do. It's been a busy month in our lives and in the goings on in the country. How was your Christmas and your New Years celebrations? We would love to here about what and how you celebrated. Our Holiday celebrations were pretty good. Different but good, seeing the kids get older though has made us rethink how we celebrate moving forward. Tell us how you celebrated, send us an email at victor50talk@gmail.com Just after Thanksgiving I had the honor of meeting a friend after at least 15 years for the 1st time in person. Jason aka: Faitios formerly of The Post Game Report and The Taggers Podcast from way back in the day came into Cleveland and we hooked up over Beer and some good food and conversation. We look forward to Jason and his wife joining us on the show in the future.  We are five days into 2025 but January 1st came in with a bang in The United States. There is nothing more American than a Mass killing to start the year off. Sadly this is America. Along side that mass killing was an incident that has everyone talking, like what the hell is going on? Y'all need to pay attention to what's going on. I'm going to post some links to some Independent Media and TikTok's that I follow and pay attention to. I will post those links at the end of the show description. Former President Jimmy Carter has passed (100 years old) this past week. I remember him as the 1st Presidential Inauguration that I remember. Through out my life I always heard people say Carter wasn't a good President because he was only one term but that he was a great Humanitarian for the work that he did after his presidency and being married to his wife for all those years.  Did y'all know there are "Couples Codes" that we try to live bye? Cathy brings us some Couples Codes that makes me think and should make you think as well if you are in a relationship. This is good information and Cathy is just laying it all out there.  In New York there has been a beating and death of a prisoner by the Corrections Officers. 14 Officers have been fired but as of today not charged due to his death. When will this type of treatment stop? Law Enforcement just doesn't give a shit now-a-days.  Y'all pay attention to what's going on around you and in this country. Keep your heads on a swivel and take in different types of media to stay informed. Something is brewing behind the scenes leading up to Monday January 6th and January 20th. Pay attention! Thanks for joining us again and we will see you all in a week or so....we going on vacation.  https://www.youtube.com/@MeidasTouch https://www.youtube.com/@briantylercohen https://www.youtube.com/@FarronBalanced https://www.youtube.com/@adammockler https://www.youtube.com/@CoachD_Speaks https://www.youtube.com/@LukeBeasley https://www.youtube.com/@LegalAFMTN

    50Talk Episode 123

    Send us a text Hello and welcome back to another episode of 50Talk. Your Host's Victor & Cathy are glad you all decided to join us again this week.  It's Thanksgiving week and Black Friday shopping at the end of the week and we can't forget about College Football and my Ohio State Buckeyes going against TTUN (That Team Up North). So needless to say it's going to be a great week.  Cathy and I have a few turkeys sitting around the house and we had been trying to figure out how we are going to cook them. It's come down to the old traditional way of cooking that sweet bird. We can mess around after Thanksgiving with the other two birds. I'm really looking forward to all of Cathy's great cooking. I can see it all on my plate right know and I can feel the fullness from eating it all.  Black Friday is right around the corner and Amazon is already having some great sales. I get into some of the tech stuff that I think everyone needs. What are you guys looking for on Black Friday or are we all past that going to stand in line at midnight stuff? Stores are changing over time when it comes to shopping. They make sales almost every weekend leading up to Christmas so we Americans don't have to trample each other or kill each other. Safety first is what is important.  Cathy gives us a little history lesson on Thanksgiving and the first dinner and some changes the government has put in since the early to mid 1800's. Yes, some of the information she gave is new to me. You learn something new everyday still. Do families still gather after dinner to watch classic movies or go to the movie theater to check out the Holiday release movies? There are so many great movies out for the Holiday already. What are some of the traditions that you all remember growing up or that you all have in your families? Please share with us at victor50talk@gmail.com. I give a short lists of thew best Thanksgiving pumpkin  desserts and they all sound and look incredible. What are some of your favorite thanksgiving desserts? Please let us know. Send us an email at victor50talk@gmail.com Kyla sent Cathy and I a text message about an incident that happened in 1994 (I guess because we are old). Susan Smith, who killed her two kids by driving them into water and letting them drown and then went on to say a black man carjacked her. Can you freaking believe that? Of course you can, this is still America.  Are men still taking "Men Weekends" or "Man-cations" these days? This is an interesting subject and Cathy took it way out of context. We hope you guys all enjoyed the show and we really do hope to be with you guys again next week for episode 124. Thank you all for listening.

    50Talk Episode 122

    Send us a text Hello and welcome back to another episode of 50Talk. The Host's of the show Victor and Cathy are happy to be back with you guys. They needed to take a little time after the crazy election to get over it and move the hell on. This episode is going to be the last time we get into talk of politics to deep or to much. This election has shown us who we are as a country and 50Talk is going to find a little bit of space in the country and get comfortable. So we are very sorry to have missed you all the past two weeks.   Quickly, we get right into the episode because, for the last two weeks we have been holding so much inside that we've been thinking about since the election. So first we're going to start with we can't watch any type of News since before the election. (trying to fit them in) The time I did turn on news was the night he started making his cabinet picks public and my jaw about hit the floor. Y'all don't forget that he "only picks the best people" from his 1st election, right?  There is a new "Movement" taking place on TikTok and other Social Media, it's the Blue Bracelets Movement! White woman want to let everyone know that when the shit hit's the fan. Please don't look in their direction because they didn't vote for him. I am personally not a fan of the bracelet. Let me tell you why.  We talk about how America isn't ready for a female President let alone a minority one. Also we have to talk about the Christian White Nationalists and how they played a part in the election. We both think it's sad that people actually said during the campaign that Kamala is stupid. You can't be as successful in life as she is if "she was stupid".  Trump didn't get where he is by being stupid although he did f**k a lot of shit up.  So the entire episode isn't all doom and gloom. Victor tries to bring a little "Joy" to the show with some good things happening in America. There was a "boxing" match this weekend. What are your thoughts on Netflix hosting and the outcome of the fight. We got a lot more stuff to talk about in this episode before we close out the episode.  Thank you guys for joining us this week.

She tells us about her family moving into the U.S. and it really is an amazing story.  With election day coming up in just over a week this is a feel good story.
