TraxNYC opens up about his Azerbaijani background, being raised Jewish with a Muslim father, and how that shaped his worldview in business and life. He also explains how a Diamond District confrontation turned into a viral moment, massive traffic growth, and why respect, restitution, and principles matter more than ego or money.

Oleg and Praz are here to predict where the remaining top free agents are likely headed (don't worry Jed, we only gave you one), and we play a fun game of "Is this a real Cubs Convention session?" We talk about the 2016 Cubs reunion, the boring podcast hosted at the convention (not this one), and we get really excited when we figure out who the two most likely new inductees into the Cubs' Utility Tunnel of Fame are until we realize who the second one most likely is. All that, plus NBC's hiring announcers for its baseball coverage.

Lawrence also highlights her advocacy through SAG-AFTRA Foundation programs, including emergency assistance and literacy outreach. Warm, funny, and thoughtful, it's an energizing start to the new season—complete with bar banter, theater shout-outs, and plenty of heart.Takeaways:A live, laughter-filled kickoff to a new season from the Palm Desert corner booth.Sharon Lawrence reflects on NYPD Blue, including Sylvia's arc and lasting impact.A deep dive into her Star Trek: Voyager role as Amelia Earhart—and fan culture.Early career roots in musical theater and how stage experience builds confidence.Growing up in a broadcasting, storytelling family shaped her voice and timing.Why acting “competition” is about fit and subjectivity—not winning or losing.TV's evolution: fewer episodes, more platforms, mergers, and shifting audiences.Behind-the-scenes union work: SAG-AFTRA Foundation support, grants, and literacy.#BigConversationsLittleBarPodcast #PatrickEvans #RandyFlorence #SkipsLittleBar #MutualBroadcastingSystem #CoachellaValleyResidents #SkipPaige #McCallumTheatre #SharonLawrence #ActressInterview #PalmDesert #PodcastEpisode #NYPDBlue #StarTrekVoyager #AmeliaEarhart #Broadway #HallmarkMovies #SAGAFTRAFoundation #StorylineOnline #McCallumTheater #EntertainmentIndustry

This episode is a direct continuation of “50 Doesn't Want to Rap About It”, but the conversation goes way beyond rap beef.Ern & Iso bounce across 50+ real-life topics — from why money outweighs bars in today's culture, to why followers don't equal real support, to uncomfortable but honest conversations about sex, relationships, boundaries, politics, and social media addiction.The fellas break down:• Why people fake-care about rap until money enters the conversation• How social media followers don't translate to album sales or real influence• Why entertainers are wrongly treated like political leaders• Sex, honesty, boundaries, and why people struggle to communicate desires• TikTok scams, fake discounts, and why trust is gone online• The mental health cost of constant visibility and content creation• Why podcasts aren't dying — but unserious creators areThis episode feels like a raw barbershop conversation — unfiltered, uncomfortable at times, but honest. Agree or disagree, it's the type of dialogue most platforms won't touch.

Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman delivers a reading from The Path to Perfection by Shaykh Masihullah Khan, focusing on the chapter “Love of Fame.” Alongside the text, he offers thoughtful commentary, relating its timeless lessons to practical challenges of modern life and providing clear, relevant advice for today's audience. In this series Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman covers the book titled, 'Essentials of Islamic Spirituality' previously known as 'The Path to Perfection'. Link to book: https://www.whitethreadpress.com/publication/essentials-of-islamic-spirituality/ At a time when the discourse surrounding Islam is generally inauthentic and shallow, The Essentials of Islamic Spirituality presents a much-needed antidote. It goes beyond simply diagnosing the spiritual ailments that afflict us; it puts forward means of eradicating them, so that we as individuals, as communities, and as an Umma can reap the benefits of a spiritual way of life. White Thread Press makes this invaluable work available in elegant and moving prose, while remaining true to its traditional origins. The result, a profound awakening of the heart, is within the reach of all. Those new to the spiritual sciences will delight in the range and profundity of the psychological and spiritual disciplines of Islam, while those already on the Path will gain new insights and perspectives. Shaykh Masihullah Khan, a renowned student of the eminent Mawlana Ashraf ‘Ali Thanawi, wrote Shari'at & Tasawwuf to pass on to future generations of Muslims the numerous benefits of his teacher's wisdom. The teachings gathered here are notes of admonition and encouragement written by a man who has walked the path to his Creator; and at their core, these teachings are sustenance for the ailing hearts and souls of our time.

He also talks about his podcast Brief Recess, the addiction that will keep him from competing on “Survivor,” how his husband is his perfect counterbalance, what it's like becoming “gay famous,” navigating the holidays as queer people, the importance of Daddies, and how people judge him when he reveals that he and his husband are monogamous.

Celebrities keep stepping into politics even when they know the backlash is coming—and that’s not accidental. In today’s fame economy, attention is currency, silence is risky, and political identity has become part of personal branding. Chris and Lady La break down why stars increasingly feel compelled to signal values, take sides, and wade into controversy: social media rewards certainty and conflict, fans treat opinions like personal loyalty tests, and outrage itself can be monetized. The result is a calculated trade—lose some followers, gain others, stay relevant, and keep the algorithm fed. This segment examines whether celebrity influence actually moves voters, why authenticity matters more than ever, and why politicians should think twice before hitching their credibility to famous faces.

22-year-old Zion crusher Connor Baty on first ascents, rope soloing the Triple Wall in 12 hours, and why he climbs without sponsors. Kora FA, Towers of the Virgin, and living the unsponsored dream.Today's guest is 22-year-old silent crusher from Zion, Connor Baty. Connor has been climbing since he was 8 years old, with key early development as a trad climber at Garden of the Gods in Colorado—a notoriously chossy area with soft, loose sandstone. Since then he quickly progressed through the grades, leveling out around the 5.13 range. He then took that knowledge and merged it with his true passion: adventure. Connor has been quietly building a reputation as a cutting-edge first ascensionist and endurance linkup climber. Connor was the partner to our previous guest James Barrow for the Complete Tower of the Virgin Traverse. They also established a new 5.12+ multipitch route in Zion, called Kora. Connor has climbed Time Wave Zero down in Potrero car to car in 5 hours and most recently he's claimed the rope solo speed record of the Zion Triple Wall—linking Touchstone, Moonlight Buttress, and Prodigal Son in a blistering 12 hours. Needless to say Connor is a crusher.He could easily seek out sponsorships at the level he is climbing. But as we learn in our conversation, Connor has zero interest in self-promotion. For him it's all about personal progress, adventure, and living the life he has now to the fullest. He even has groundbreaking pursuits outside of climbing and is currently attempting to navigate the Colorado River from source to sea. What I found most interesting about our conversation is how well-spoken, composed, and level-headed Connor is as a human and a climber. Back when I was 22 I could not say the same thing about myself. I really felt the stoke and energy from Connor in our conversation and I'm happy to be sharing it with you now.Watch the full episode on Youtube---Thanks to our sponsors!LIVSN DesignsCheckout their Ecotrek Trail Pants HereUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for an extra 15% OFF Your OrderHot Chillys Performance Base LayersCheckout their Micro Elite Chamois Base Layer Systems HereUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for 15% OFF Your OrderGet Access to Exclusive Episodes, Unlock Ad-Free Podcast, & MORE!---ResourcesConor's IG

There was a time when fame and money felt like the end goal: likes, numbers, proximity to power, and the illusion of “making it.” In this episode, I'm getting painfully honest about my past obsession with visibility and validation, and how I learned to unlearn it. We talk about redefining success, why quality work matters more than clout, and how chasing recognition can quietly ruin your relationship with creativity. I also revisit the messy definition of fame, the roots of success, nepotism in the industry, and what it actually means to build something that lasts. If you're a creative who's ever felt torn between art and attention, this one's for you.

Tom MacDonald wages war on a “Woke World” and risks it all in the process. The music industry wanted him silenced—instead, he became the biggest independent rapper in the world. From the depths of severe alcoholism and poverty to complete financial freedom, Tom breaks down the brutal cost of telling the truth in a world addicted to lies. He reveals how he dismantles the culture war by rejecting the trap of tribalism entirely—weaponizing the labels cast by the woke left while exposing the cowardice of the “alt right". This episode goes beyond controversy and into the blueprint of building power without permission: owning your masters, controlling your message, and turning rejection into leverage. It's a blunt look at the price of authenticity, the discipline required to stay sober, and what it really takes to go from rags to riches without selling your soul.

This week on Voice of The People DMV, the conversation moves effortlessly from the court to the culture, blending sports, entertainment, music, and real-life perspective the way only this platform can. The episode kicks off with sports, leadership, and legacy, breaking down AJ Dybansta's rise as a potential future #1 NBA Draft pick, the Knicks' NBA Cup Final victory, and Marshall Faulk's vision as he builds his coaching staff at Southern University. The hosts also dive into Sherrone Moore's defining leadership moment, unpacking the pressure, accountability, and expectations that come with coaching at the highest level. From there, the mic shifts to film, TV, and Hollywood culture, calling out Delroy Lindo's Golden Globe snub as another example of Hollywood missing the mark, recapping the Bel-Air season finale, and debating whether the upcoming Street Fighter reboot signals a turning point for video game movies. The heart of the episode lives in hip hop and industry talk, where bold opinions meet cultural memory. Is The Game really the best rapper on the West Coast? Why did the 2000s rap era feel so distinct and personal? Is the 50 Cent vs. Jim Jones beef still fun or just tired? The crew also unpacks 21 Savage's “F the streets” comment, Wale's ongoing Kai Cenat discourse, and rounds it out by naming the greatest songs and albums of the year. Things get deeper with mental health, relationships, and real life, as Kai Cenat opens up about the pressures of fame and internet expectations, followed by a candid conversation about Young Thug's proposal to Mariah The Scientist and how love, timing, and public perception intersect. To close, the show lightens up with “For the Girls (and the Grown): Beauty Staples Edition,” sharing must-have lip combos, go-to fragrances, and skincare essentials before jumping into fun, rotating debate topics that keep the energy high and the conversation honest. It's a full-spectrum episode — thoughtful, entertaining, opinionated, and unapologetically real — reminding listeners why Voice of The People DMV stays locked into the pulse of culture.

How Long Will It Last?

Welcome back to State of the Culture Pt 2 (Continuation)

This episode features host Travis Chappell and producer Eric having a rapid-fire, hilarious, and surprisingly deep “Would You Rather” session built entirely around money, investing, and lifestyle tradeoffs. Using a list of AI-generated prompts, they unpack how real people should think about risk, retirement, lifestyle creep, and building wealth with their actual constraints in mind.​ On this episode we talk about: Whether to take $10 million today or $1 million a year for life Swinging for a 10x moonshot vs. locking in an 8% return forever Being “early to the next Apple” versus compounding slower, safer returns Choosing between keeping your investments or keeping your business Building one $100M company that burns you out vs. multiple smaller businesses you love Working 80-hour weeks for a few years to make work optional vs. coasting forever Unlimited VC money with no control vs. slow, bootstrapped freedom Fame with no privacy vs. quiet wealth no one sees Driving a paid-off Toyota with rentals vs. renting a house with a Lambo Taking a $250K job you hate vs. $75K doing work you love Top 3 Takeaways Safe, consistent returns beat reckless moonshots—especially early on. Travis leans toward guaranteed growth and stacking cash first, then taking bigger swings once a solid base is built. Your best wealth-building lever at first is income, not investments. Until your portfolio can support you, your business and skills are the engine that funds long-term wealth. Money decisions are really lifestyle decisions. Tradeoffs like privacy vs. fame, burnout vs. freedom, and hating a high-paying job vs. loving a lower-paying one matter more than raw dollar amounts. Notable Quotes “Get to a hundred grand, then put as much money as you can into the safe thing before you go start playing around.” “The goal isn't retirement; the goal is to make work optional.” “There's a massive difference between having to work to eat and choosing to work because you love what you do.”​ ✖️✖️✖️✖️

He calls out Democrats and The View for melting down over President Trump’s presidential Walk of Fame jabs while ignoring real uses of the 25th Amendment under Biden.

This might be the wildest story we've ever told on Unglossy — and that's saying something.This week, Bun B, Jeffrey Sledge, and Tom Frank sit down with Owen Hanson, better known as The California Kid or The Cocaine Quarterback. Once a USC walk-on turned national champion, Owen's life took a sharp left turn from the football field into international drug trafficking, cartel money, federal prison, and headlines that sound fictional until you realize they're not.Fresh off the Amazon Prime docuseries Cocaine Quarterback, Owen breaks his silence on what really happened — from how the documentary came together, to what it got right (and what it couldn't fully show), to how you rebuild an identity when your name becomes a cautionary tale.This isn't a glamorized crime story. It's a raw conversation about ambition, ego, consequences, survival, and second chances. We talk life inside prison, hustling legally and illegally, the mindset it takes to endure a decade behind bars, and how Owen turned a mop bucket, protein powder, and sheer will into a legitimate business on the outside.From USC glory to federal time… and from rock bottom to redemption — this episode is about what happens after everything falls apart.No polish. No excuses. Just the truth. This is Unglossy.Send us a textSupport the show
