An Opinionated Me

i'm sorry to interpret your regularly scheduled podcast but, i thought about changing up the pace with a mini-series around the topic of mental health awareness and talking about it with older people in my personal life like my mother. i'm working on the next interview and on Friday, An Opinionated Me will be back in business with my co-host, Zeus. he isn't on social media but, i am. to stay up-to-date about my personal life, the podcast or my other work, i highly suggest you follow me on Twitter. i feel weird when it comes to self-promoting but, if you would like to give us or me financial support for this and other projects, you can support us on Patreon. we deeply appreciate your support either way. love ya and have a good rest of your day. twitter: https://twitter.com/mrileyspeaks01 patreon: https://www.patreon.com/an_opinionated_me --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/an-opinionated-me-0801/support

i hope you enjoyed this episode and that we didn't come off as insensitive towards the grim topics that we covered. remember, if you ever feel like you are depressed, confused about your emotions and contemplating something drastic like suicide, please talk to someone like a counselor, therapist, look for free therapy options in your area like group talks, talk to a friend, seek a psychologist or call Suicide Prevention Lifeline. you matter and your life can account for wonderful things in this world, even if you feel like it doesn't. https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/ videos mentioned: Contrapoints - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD2briZ6fB0 Thomas Sanders - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn0pKxShY8Q For Harriet's video on black people in country music - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oofC-iWEMzI Rogue Rocket's video on black cowboys - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsZDvKIn8ts news articles: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/officer-who-accused-mcdonald-s-workers-taking-bite-his-sandwich-n1035796 https://wgntv.com/2019/07/29/chicago-woman-stole-actress-taraji-p-hensons-identity-police/ https://www.apnews.com/7eef738596e9458eacb9f9015d7fd7fe https://beta.washingtonpost.com/local/obituaries/russi-taylor-voice-of-disneys-minnie-mouse-and-simpsons-staple-dies-at-75/2019/07/29/01e8236c-b20c-11e9-951e-de024209545d_story.html?outputType=amp https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/elaminabdelmahmoud/incoming-the-victims-of-the-gilroy-shooting we will do updates on two or three of these stories in the next episode, stay tuned, my beautiful peeps. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/an-opinionated-me-0801/support
