    Faith, Accountability, And Building Community In Small-Town America

    Send us a text The moment you realize the old code is costing your future, everything shifts. We open up about trading the tough-guy reflex for a mindset anchored in faith, accountability, and context—understanding when to walk away and when to stand firm. That shift isn’t theory; it’s lived experience across Chicago blocks and quiet Minnesota streets, where the same move can mean safety in one place and trouble in another. From there, we get practical. We share a plan to turn a massive old school building in Beardsley, Minnesota into a community hub with a public garage—tools, space, and guidance so neighbors can fix their cars without breaking the bank. It’s mutual aid on a concrete floor, backed by side hustles that actually serve people: classic cars, affordable beaters, catering, and a legal cannabis rolling service. The goal is simple—build assets that make a small town stronger, more skilled, and more connected. We also go straight at a hard topic: truth, policing, and the narratives that keep shifting. One of us admits to believing the wrong story before, and why changing your mind when the facts change isn’t weakness—it’s integrity. We swap stories about cover-ups, double standards, and the pressure to protect image over people, while still keeping our friendships with good officers and a commitment to call out harm wherever it lives. The throughline is clear: love your home by telling the truth, even when it stings, and put your hands to work building something better. Hit play if you want a conversation that blends street wisdom, small-town grit, and a plan you can touch.

    310 Crew Is Building A Creative Brand From Big Lake

    Send us a text What happens when a Nashville studio trip lights a fire you can’t put out? We bring in Husky and JC Boots from 310 Crew Studios to share how a simple “let’s learn it ourselves” turned into a creative business that records artists, shoots concert tours, and crafts crisp, story-first videos for clients across industries. From Big Lake, Minnesota to a tour bus rolling city to city, they show how curiosity becomes craft—and how craft becomes a living. We dive into the work behind the lens: why clarity beats flashy props, when to use drones for movement and mood, and how to cut a music video that feels like memory without losing momentum. The guys explain how they blend rough phone clips with cinematic shots, how they edit performances to the rhythm of a track, and why composition and pacing matter more than a rented supercar. Along the way, we trade top five debates—Biggie versus Jay, the pull of early Jay-Z, J. Cole’s lyrical weight, and the way taste evolves with time and grind. The conversation also gets real about the creator’s life. Podcasting isn’t just a mic; it’s planning, setup, editing, and consistency that hits before sunrise. We talk checklists, making setups fast, and how a small team changes everything by reducing friction. Distribution across Apple, Spotify, and more brought surprising reach, including international listeners, which fuels a bigger mission: invite hard stories, turn pain into help, and keep showing up even when fear says step back. If you’re a musician, videographer, or brand exploring content, this one is packed with practical insight on audio engineering, music videos, live show highlights, client work, and staying prolific with singles.

    From Street Witness To Civic Voice: Violence, Bias, And Why We Need New Leadership

    Send us a text The news hits like a punch: another man dead, ten shots, a phone mistaken for a weapon, and a rush of takes before the facts land. We slow everything down. We walk through the footage, the witness accounts, and the instant pundit spin that tries to lock a narrative in place. If justice is supposed to be blind, why do the rules seem to change based on who’s holding the camera, the badge, or the mic? From there, we widen the lens. We talk about protests where guns appear on both sides, when discipline breaks and street logic takes over, and how that fuels the feeling of a two-tier justice system. I get candid about Chicago grief, bad stops, and the everyday fear of simply driving to get a haircut. Then we look outward: how U.S. leaders praise strongmen, excuse the murder of journalists, and reward power that never says sorry. If our foreign policy flatters impunity, our domestic policy starts to rhyme with it. So what do we do? We argue for voting by outcome, not identity—choose leaders who protect kids, fund real education, and enforce the law the same way for everyone. We talk mentoring, building vision, and learning from people we disagree with. And I make a case that surprises some listeners: it’s time for a woman to be in the White House. Not as symbolism, but as a reset toward credible strength, financial vigilance, and a hard line against exploitation. If your mother raised you, you know decisive compassion works. Come be part of the conversation—DM, email, or call to share your story. If this resonated, follow the show, leave a review, and pass it to someone who needs a thoughtful take today.

    From Hustler Music To Building A Movement With Major Talk

    Send us a text Doors open and excuses close. We’re launching a free Met Gala that blends live performances, a rolling podcast, and pro photography into one night designed to help artists get seen, heard, and documented without paying a cent. Major Talk pulls up to map the vision: bring your set, get your footage, meet collaborators, and leave with assets you can post the next day. We break down the blueprint with zero fluff. Major Talk shares the story behind a run of new singles—Big Dog, Ice 2, Hands Itchin, and No Love—and lays out a bold 2026 plan to drop 20 or more records while chasing soundtrack and sync placements. We talk release cadence, visual strategy, and why the content grind feels like a second job. The honesty goes deeper: why strangers often support faster than friends, how to grow an organic fan base across states and countries, and the power of data when you’re proving yourself in real time. We take a breath to look at the wider world—protests, ICE, and the consequences that follow heat-of-the-moment choices—then detour into sports where pressure shows its teeth. Texans playoff hopes, NFC wildness, the heartbreak of kickers, and the ever-green LeBron vs Jordan debate turn into a conversation about longevity, health, and adapting when the stakes rise. From there, we zoom back to the build: a dedicated venue and studio hub for shows, pods, and merch, plus a comedy film set in the hood with a high-stakes mix-up, fast-moving packs, and two rappers racing to fix a bad situation before it gets worse. Casting’s open, quality beats speed, and the story is made to make people laugh together. If you’re an artist, creative, or fan ready to tap in, this is your invite. Pull up on January 31 in Alexandria, MN, 5 p.m.–12 a.m., and get your moment on stage and on camera. Subscribe to Major Talk on all platforms and YouTube at majortalk713.

    Breaking Down A Deadly ICE Encounter And What It Reveals About Policing, Politics, And Public Fear

    Send us a text Sirens, headlines, and a fractured comment section can turn a human life into a talking point. We slow the tape and walk through what happened in Minneapolis, why ICE’s mandate differs from local policing, and how training and policy choices ripple into the most dangerous three seconds of someone’s life. From the first approach to those final gunshots, we focus on procedure: when an agent can engage, why most modern policies warn against firing into moving vehicles, and how independent investigations are supposed to work when federal and state interests collide. We also press on the narratives that flood social feeds—“don’t break the law,” “she was in the wrong,” “he was justified”—and hold them up to basic principles of law and ethics. Breaking the law isn’t a death sentence; proportionality and necessity still govern force. If a weapon appears at your window, fear is not theoretical, it’s visceral. That’s why training standards matter: scenario drills, stress management, and clear restrictions that prevent tactics known to escalate harm. We connect these choices to bigger forces: how political messaging amplifies fear, how budgets expand without matching oversight, and how attention drifts from school safety, healthcare, and the rising cost of living that shapes daily choices. The conversation moves beyond blame to specifics: body cams on every federal agent operating in communities, mandatory bans on shooting at moving vehicles except in narrowly defined threats, automatic handoff to independent state investigators, and transparent release of policies and timelines. Street experience, legal basics, and community memory meet here, pushing for accountability that protects both lives and legitimacy. If this resonates, share it with someone who thinks “just comply” is the whole story, subscribe for more grounded analysis, and leave a review with the reform you’d prioritize first.

    My First Meeting With Dani Gee, Real Talk

    Send us a text Two strangers sit down and skip small talk. We trade stories about single parenting, what it means to be both comfort and consequence, and how hard it is to stay firm when you want to be your kid’s safe place. Dani opens up about healing after domestic violence and choosing counseling to break patterns. I share where I fell short as a father and why I believe standards, not fear, give kids a path to stand on. We push and pull on the same idea from different angles: accountability is love in motion. Then we wander into the unexpected—homesteading dreams, backyard chickens, and the great “fresh eggs vs BBL grocery eggs” debate. It’s funny and tense in equal measures, but it exposes a bigger question: who do you trust with your body and your food? That thread unspools into the grind of modern life, “rehabilitation” that isn’t, and why some of us feel like we live in cells we decorate. We talk speed, convenience, and the quiet courage of choosing a slower, more intentional life even when the world sprints. Dating and standards bring the heat. Why do so many of us pick red flags we swore off? Are we trying to save people or prove something to ourselves? We argue about social media respect, thirst traps, and whether likes count as disloyalty. The answer we land on isn’t cute: trust and boundaries beat surveillance and ultimatums. Along the way, we wade into history and headlines—what gets taught, what gets hidden, and how to think for yourself without turning bitter. If there’s a thesis here, it’s this: life is chess, not checkers. Strategy over impulse. Presence over performance. Healing before partnership. Tap play for raw, unfiltered, funny, and vulnerable. If this conversation hits home, share it with a friend, subscribe for the next round, and leave a review—what red flag will you stop for next time? Support the show

    My Fav Person Fine Shyt Discuss being EMS, Single Parenthood, And Self-Respect

    Send us a text You’ll feel the shift the moment Madison starts talking about run reviews. We trade the TV version of EMS for the real thing: CPR that doesn’t always land, pediatric calls that demand calm, and the quiet pride of learning from each run so the next patient gets a little more skill and a lot more clarity. Between sips and side jokes, we get a rare look at how a first responder stays human under pressure—and how that same focus shapes life outside the ambulance. What follows is part survival guide, part love letter to boundaries. Madison lays out why cutting people off wasn’t cruelty but maintenance, how “fool me twice” became a policy, and why money without a payback plan erodes trust. We dig into choosing guests with purpose, not headlines, and keeping the podcast free of street gossip. The thread is consistency: do the work, protect your peace, and let your circle be small enough to fit the people who actually show up. We also get personal about partnership and independence. Maggie’s type is hardworking and creative—the kind of person who can fix what breaks and teach what matters. We explore what it means to carry your own weight, love without losing yourself, and raise a kid who can build a rubber-band boat and a better life. There’s laughter about jerk chicken and legendary cheesecake, but the heartbeat is practical hope: set standards, learn skills, and choose presence over performative plans. If you’re craving a conversation that leaves you clearer about boundaries, braver about your goals, and kinder to your future self, press play now. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs stronger lines around their peace, and drop a review to tell us your rule for second chances. Support the show
