The STREET GOSPEL PODCAST is truly a gem in the podcasting world. Hosted by David, this podcast tackles important topics with a refreshing and insightful perspective. With each episode, David asks all the right questions and dives deep into discussions that are both thought-provoking and relevant to today's world. I found myself taking notes as I listened because Marsellus, one of the guests, dropped so much wisdom. It's truly awesome to know that there are people like Dave and his guests who share their views on these incredibly important topics.
One of the best aspects of The STREET GOSPEL PODCAST is the depth of the conversations that take place. David and his guests approach each topic with such insight and intelligence, making for a truly enlightening listening experience. The logical common sense backed up by inspiration is absolutely fire! It's exactly the type of conversations I want to be having with others - ones that challenge my perspectives and make me think deeply about societal issues.
Another great aspect of this podcast is the variety of guests that David brings on. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to the table. Each guest adds a valuable layer to the discussions, creating a well-rounded exploration of the topics at hand.
However, it must be noted that one possible downside to The STREET GOSPEL PODCAST is that it may not appeal to everyone. The discussions can be quite deep and philosophical at times, which may alienate listeners who prefer more light-hearted or entertaining podcasts. Additionally, some listeners might find certain topics too heavy or intense for their taste. However, for those who enjoy intellectually stimulating conversations, this podcast is an absolute must-listen.
In conclusion, The STREET GOSPEL PODCAST is an incredible podcast that offers in-depth interviews on topics that matter in today's world. David's ability to ask all the right questions combined with his guest's wisdom makes for a truly enlightening listening experience. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who wants to learn as they listen and engage in conversations that challenge their perspectives. David, Camo, and Ash are doing an amazing job, and I look forward to each new episode they release. Keep up the great work!

Jarad Nava was featured on the Netflix documentary "They Call Us Monsters". The doc centered around incarcerated youth facing life sentences as minors. In 2012, at the age of 17, Jarad was charged with four counts of attempted murder, one count of shooting at an occupied motor vehicle and possession of a short-barreled shotgun. After declining a plea deal of a 30-year prison term he stood trial as an adult, which the state of California allows for 16 and 17 year old's, and faced over 200 years in prison. On February 7th 2014 Jarad was convicted of four counts of attempted murder, and 3 months later sentenced to 162 years in prison. After taking full responsibility for his actions, Jarad settled into a life knowing he would never go home again. In prison he learned to keep his head down and began to work on his being, taking every self help class he could and finding Christ along the way. Through Gods mercy, the state of California parole board, his acceptance of all responsibility and luck, Jarad was released after only 8 years. This podcast tells the story of a lost young man, who found purpose in prison through Christ, and who was given a second chance not only for freedom but to make his life worth something.
