    June 22nd, 2026: Baltimore’s Youth Crisis, Parental Accountability, and the Call for Consequences

    Join the conversation with TJ Smith. This episode opens with a personal Father’s Day reflection before turning to a bigger question facing Baltimore: what happens when young people create chaos in public spaces, and adults keep making excuses?

The conversation focuses heavily on accountability, parenting, and the community's role when families are not fully engaged.
