In the Life of a Mack

Which is more valuable, a person's time or their money? I saw this post on IG that this woman was encouraging women to get his money over his time. And from that, it sparked an interesting FB Live. As well as today's episode. No time for the hesi, we're driving straight for the hole!!!

The NCAA football video game is supposed to be coming back. And that is one game I could play 24/7. I remember being in college, playing (as myself) in the games, and talking to my teammates about how we should be getting paid. Back then the NCAA did not allow athletes to get paid, but that may be about to change with the new Supreme Court ruling siding with the athletes concerning compensation from the NCAA. I know people will disagree with that notion... So let's talk about it. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

We are celebrating our 1 year birthday of being in this podcast world. And thank you to those who tune in on the regular. Mental health issues are a real problem that we face on a daily basis. And it seems like the older we get, we face more obstacles and must overcome adversity nonstop. I posted something on my social media (a trend from TicTok) talking about "post you and what almost killed you". I open up a bit and talk about my battle with depression, anxiety, and suicide attempts. Life may be kicking your butt right now, but don't give up and don't give in to those thoughts in your mind. I'm no expert on this topic, but life experiences are a great teacher. And life has taught me to #keepliving, so #ichoselife every day I wake up. I do it on purpose! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

Another week down in 2021 and this world seems to get crazier and crazier. From the (rightful) guilty verdict of a murderous police officer and, to multiple police shootings...life seems to be at an all-time high (for anxiety) and low (for humanity and morality). Then, it's been 5 years since the death of my brother, and time still is not helping me from that loss. Honestly, I do not think it will. But life goes on...  And so do pain and irritation. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

Good people of the world...what's good?!? I know that I've been incognito for a little bit, but it's time to get back on the mic and talk about the pain and irritation I have been dealing with. It's been said that "time heals all wounds"...welp, I'm a firm believer that some things will never heal. But I remain optimistic. So let's get into it! ***There is music played on this episode that I do not own the rights to.*** --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

What's cooler than being cool...ICE COLD! LOL It is wintertime. Snow and ice are supposed to be apart of that, but not to the point where a political official wants to go to Cancun right in the middle of it. While some people (still) don't have electricity or water. Sounds like something off of a sitcom. Then WTH is going on with the Houston sports team as of the last few years. And lastly, I watched a movie that may lead to its own episode, cause I was about to go HAM! Things can't be that "cold" out here...right?! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

After the incident at the Capitol Building a few days ago, I decided to go back in time and look at a few things about the factual history of America. My youngest daughter wanted to come along for the journey. And for being 12 years old, she is very inciteful. We may step on a few toes on this one, but hey.....we're spitting straight facts!!! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/itloamack/message

I am back from a well needed "whoosa" to replenish the mind! Dealing with death is never easy. Celebrating meaningful times in our life are needed. One thing is for sure, you are going to experience both. Life will hit us at different junctures and we must learn how to navigate through this game of life we all are playing.
