    Carter G. Woodson, Epstein Files, & Florida Man Logic | S03E04

    Send a text In this episode of Respect The Talk, we break down why facts — especially historical facts — continue to make people uncomfortable. We start with the real origins of Black History Month and the work of Carter G. Woodson, explaining why it began as a correction, not a celebration. We discuss why February was chosen, the historical role of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln, and why the NAACP was formed during one of the most violent periods in American history. From there, we shift into modern headlines — including the financial success of a First Lady documentary and what it says about power, image, and which stories get amplified. We also hit on another Florida Man story, the resurfacing Epstein files, renewed government shutdown threats, and why legal pressure is often more about controlling narratives than uncovering truth. This episode isn’t about outrage or opinions — it’s about context, history, and patterns that keep repeating. We start with the Milano–Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, spotlighting elite sports most people only see once every four years—and why winter athletes may be some of the most overlooked in the world. Then we ask the real question behind Super Bowl LX: is a $6,200 ticket actually worth it, or has the couch officially won? From there, we break down Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show as a cultural moment—what it represents, who gets visibility on the biggest stage, and how halftime performances have shifted from “safe” to meaningful statements. The conversation turns reflective as we unpack the origins of baby showers and Sunday as a rest day, revealing how traditions rooted in survival, faith, and obedience still shape modern life—even when the original meaning is forgotten. We close with historical and political context inspired by Matt Holmes, examining America’s radical founding ideas, how power narratives are used today, and why political distraction often matters more than the spectacle itself. This episode isn’t about headlines—it’s about understanding what’s underneath them. 00:00 — Start 00:00 — Opening Intro 10:29 —  Jarrell Miller's hair vs Kingsley Ibeh 17:01 — Carter G.

    WHY Do We Have 7 Days in a Week? | Florida Stays Undefeated & Wild USA News

    Send us a text Why do we have seven days in a week — and who actually named them? 🤔 On this episode of Respect The Talk, Jerry and co-host James kick off a brand-new WHY FACTS segment, breaking down the ancient origins of the days of the week and how history still controls our modern lives. We also get into wild USA news, including the capture of Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro, plus some Only in Florida stories that sound fake but absolutely aren’t. From people calling 911 over stolen weed to secret government conspiracy claims, Florida proves once again that it stays undefeated. We wrap things up with what we watched over the holiday break, what’s worth streaming (and what’s not), and casual sports talk — including fans calling for Snoop Dogg to be part of the Super Bowl. If you like culture, history, laughs, and real conversation without the heavy politics — you’re in the right place.
