The Science. Live from Studio A at 5 PM Central with our esteemed former guest Dr. Betsy Cairo. Enlightening and exciting conversation with this lady. She helped us understand nuanced information about the virus, related research, and most importantly distribution and implications of the Covid vaccine. We don't deal in conspiracy theory on Mental Speak, but rather in factual data gathered through anecdotal and sponsored research. We encourage humans to trust their innate judgment through observing life, and their intuition. We offer that in the case of Covid, it may be beneficial to take Western science with a grain of salt, in the context of human history and the governing institutions.

We had just returned to the studio after the national and state lockdown mandates for the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic of 2020. It was time to begin making sense of what we were experiencing.

For our first installment of the Music Speak broadcast, we were obliged to have a member of the illustrious R&B/hip hop singing bands, “Bowlegged Lou“ George, of Full Force. Lou is one of the six-member group, including his two brothers, Paul Anthony & B-Fine, along with cousins Baby Gerry, Curt-T-T & J-R Shy Shy. During promotion, many people were surprised to learn how wide their music production career has spanned, across genres and decades. In my observation, if Teddy Riley is the father of New Jack Swing, Full Force’s influence makes them the godfathers of the genre, given the ground-breaking fusion of R&B/hip hop sound they introduced to the world in 1984. Lou, along with his brothers continues to give back to community through philanthropy and music, and are highly gracious for allowing us to celebrate their contribution to the culture and the soundtrack of our lives.

Anthony Ray, also known as Sir Mix-A-Lot gave posses everywhere a tune to cruise down Broadway in your town; and unbeknownst to many, he gave women of color an anthem of Self-Love that has stood the test of time. He was gracious enough to grant us an interview before joining MC Hammer, Kid-N-Play, and a host of other Old School artists on stage at Hammer's House Party at the Toyota Music Pavilion in Irving that evening. It's these classic jams that make us reminisce to a more fun era, of cruising strips, and worshipping the derriere of Sistas everywhere.

Guidance on raising iGen, aka Post-Millennials, aka Generation Zers. This episode we spoke with mother, syndicated columnist, speaker, and moderator LISA SUGARMAN. She is also author of the humor column “LIFE: It Is What It Is”, and the book “Untying Parent Anxiety (Ages 5-8)” , and “How To Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids...” Lisa and I shared a comfortable mom-to-mom chat about the challenges of raising the current generation of children. Fear is the primary emotion of the era, propelled by that which was supposed to simplify life, technology. With her pragmatic insight, Lisa helped us to quell the fears and concerns, and inspired us to embrace the realities of the present with the mantra: "It is what it is."
