Listen in on a compelling conversation with Dr. Ian Smith as we explore the critical health issues generationally affecting the Black community, the importance of culturally competent medical care, and strategies for empowerment and health advocacy.

The voice heard around the world. What started as a stand for his community quickly turned him into a polarizing figure—seen as both a hero and a villain. But through the noise, he earned something more valuable: respect.That respect led to a partnership with Leo of Recovery CBD.This week, they join us to unpack their journey, the complexities of the peptide and CBD industries, and the message behind Ian's new book Find Your Hill.

In a World of Cowboy Boots, Republic Boot Co Stands ApartWhen it comes to cowboy boots, there are two types of companies: mass-produced "ready-made" brands and small-batch custom bootmakers. Most major boot brands—Lucchese, Tony Lama, Nocona, Justin—are owned by private equity firms like Berkshire Hathaway. Meanwhile, many new direct-to-consumer startups are simply marketing operations selling factory-made boots from conglomerates in León, Mexico. On the other hand, traditional custom bootmakers are typically small teams of artisans crafting each pair by hand, often with wait times exceeding a year or two.Republic Boot Co bridges the gap—offering the best of both worlds.Founded with a unique vision, Republic blends the precision and efficiency of ready-made boots with the quality, character, and soul of custom craftsmanship. Our Houston bootshop delivers an immersive experience where visitors can watch custom boots being handcrafted while browsing our collection of ready-made boots and other finely made leather goods. For a taste of the experience, check out our YouTube channel.Our supply chain is vertically integrated - we own our crocodile farms, tannery, manufacturing and distribution.Thanks to our deep bench of master bootmakers, we offer truly custom boots under a year—without sacrificing quality. Our ready-made boots are built using the same techniques and standards as our custom line, with production managed to maintain consistency and affordability. Every pair is finished, modified, resoled, and quality-checked in our Houston shop. We are master bootmakers, and we stand behind every boot for life.A Legacy Rooted in Texas GritThe story of Republic Boot Co began in 2011, when founder Chris Conrad answered a divine calling to “Save Texas” by preserving its rich culture through handcrafted boots and leather goods. He and his wife liquidated their savings and opened a small Houston shop, assembling a team of the finest local craftsmen. Through years of dedication—marked by triumphs and trials worthy of the Texas Revolution itself—Republic Boot Co grew into an award-winning brand that embodies authenticity, heritage, and Texas pride."Walking into our shop feels like stepping into a blend of museum, saloon, engineering lab, and John Wayne film. It's not just retail—it's an experience."Our roots run deep. The Conrad family was among the first to settle in the Houston Heights in the late 1800s, and the shop today proudly honors that legacy.The Republic Wine Castle in the Hill Country is the latest location - learn about it hereThe Republic FamilyAt the heart of Republic Boot Co is our incredible team—the soul of our success. Fireball Bill, our General Manager, is a true force of energy who never meets a stranger. He and his wife, Lucky Laura, manage daily operations with Texas charm.  Yoch manages the bootshop, while Spencer oversees production. Adam B is the GM over the Hill Country location.  Augustine is the best boot repairman west of the Mississippi. Our bootshop team is deep and incredible.Our extended Republic Family includes many more. Their dedication, talent, and heart have carried Republic through the years—and we are beyond grateful.We are Christ-centered, faith-driven, and deeply thankful for this calling. We love meeting new folks and sharing what we do.Come join us at Republic—and maybe even earn a bootshop nickname.

In Black Shakespeare: Reading and Misreading Race (Cambridge University Press, 2022), Ian Smith urges readers of Othello, The Merchant of Venice, and Hamlet to develop “racial literacy.” Through both wide social influences and specific professional pressures, Shakespearean critics have been taught to ignore, suppress, and explain away the racial thinking of the plays, a set of evasion strategies that inevitably have political and social ramifications in the contemporary United States. As Ian writes in the introduction, Black Shakespeare is intended to “shift the focus to conditions that shape readers, inform their epistemologies, and influence their reading practices” (3). Today's guest is Ian Smith, Professor of English at the University of Southern California. Ian is the author of the previous monograph, Race and Rhetoric in the Renaissance: Barbarian Errors (Palgrave, 2009), as well as one of the most important articles in early modern literary criticism of the last twenty years, “Othello's Black Handkerchief.” Ian is the current President of the Shakespeare Association of America. John Yargo is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His specializations are early modern literature, the environmental humanities, and critical race studies. His dissertation explores early modern representations of environmental catastrophe, including William Shakespeare's The Tempest, Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, and John Milton's Paradise Lost. He has published in Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, and Shakespeare Studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicked off with a State Department warning doubling down on U.S. citizens in Iran: anti-government protests have claimed over 600 lives, with security crackdowns, internet blackouts, and suspended flights raging across the country. Americans were urged to “leave Iran immediately,” via commercial or land routes like Turkey or Armenia, with the U.S. embassy stressing limited consular assistance and emphasizing the danger of arbitrary arrest—especially for U.S.–Iran dual nationals. Next, Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker's divorce has escalated from quietly filed last November to heated legal warfare. Kandi claims Todd has failed to contribute to mortgage or child-related expenses while traveling abroad, and she’s pushing for child support and a defined parenting schedule. Todd has countered—challenging the prenup and requesting primary custody and alimony; he’s also resisting Kandi’s efforts to seal court files.

He emphasized metabolic resetssearch15, protein prioritization, carb cycling turn, workouts as keys to advisory emphasizes re-stimulating weight loss after the body. Finally, pastor and gospel singer Donnie McClurkin faces civil sexual-assault allegations filed by a former assistant spanning from 2003 to 2015.
