Cut From Duval | Keith

This ain’t just a story it’s a foundation. On this episode of Short Dawg Big Talks, we sit down with Keith, straight outta Jacksonville, Florida. Duval to the core. Raised in a time when lines were drawn and opportunities weren’t given, Keith learned early what it meant to stand tall in a divided world. An unapologetic Jaguars fan, a teacher, and a builder in every sense. Keith dedicates his life to showing disabled individuals that purpose doesn’t have limits through auto mechanics He’s not just fixing cars, he’s restoring confidence, independence, and dignity. But behind the work is something deeper. Brotherhood. Discipline. Legacy. As a Freemason, Keith walks a path rooted in principles that most talk about but few truly live. This episode is about where you come from, what you stand on, and how you give back even when the world didn’t give much to you. Duval isn’t just where he’s from. It’s who he is.

Built By My Grandmother, Broken By Life | Gus

“Everybody loves the comeback story. Nobody talks about the nights when you’re losing the fight with yourself.” On this episode of Short Dawg Big Talks, Gus tells the story most people are afraid to say out loud. Raised by a grandmother who gave him love, structure, and a foundation to stand on, Gus carried those lessons with him into adulthood but life doesn’t always move in straight lines. College, independence, bad decisions, addiction, and hard truths forced him to face parts of himself he couldn’t run from. This isn’t a polished success story. It’s about the fall, the fight, and the work it takes to get back up. Gus speaks on addiction, accountability, and the quiet battle of trying to become the man you know you’re supposed to be. Learning that sometimes the only way forward is to let go of control, trust the process, and let God lead the path. Because real growth isn’t clean. It’s painful. It’s humbling. But it’s real. If you’ve ever struggled, doubted yourself, or had to rebuild your life piece by piece this conversation is for you. Real talk. No filters.
