Firstly R.I.P. to George Floyd and all those lives that have been lost at the hands of police brutality and racism. Joel opens with his emotional reaction to the death of George Floyd and the outcry from protesters in the States and the UK. We raise the following question; How can we make change in educating our minds and using resources to mentally arm ourselves? In turn educating ourselves is a must to pass on to the next generation especially if we have children. The people who take from black culture must also accept their own responsibility and play their part and recognise the privilege they hold especially in the world of the 'influencer' and celebrity. Staying firm on the matter and not letting the injustice pass is crucial to ensure the loss of life has all been in vain. Gully calls on the Asian community to be accountable and drop the use of the N word within music and also to call out family and friends when using racial slurs. News infact broke about George's independent autopsy report during our Monday night recording which detailed the actual cause of death as we unfortunately suspected. Also, when will the other 3 cops be brought to justice? Gully briefly touched on the Sikh genocide in 1984, 36 years on about the rape and murder of the Sikh community in Delhi.

Not only social media's effect, however the mass media in the UK have such a vast amount of power which the guys reflect on in terms of new laws and legislation which need to be put in place to ensure people are protected. They also reflect on the obsession to crush and vilify people in the public eye including Michael Jackson, Ramz and Britney Spears. Most importantly what JMC want listeners to take away from this episode is how our actions can affect other people. Nobody is immune from abuse and trolling no matter how they may appear. How can we protect future generations from such unwarranted attacks and change people's perspectives on the idea of simply being kind.
