In this episode of The Living Room Podcast, we sit down with Rasheed Young — Queens native, cultural strategist, and former president of Run Athletics. In 1998, Rasheed co-founded the streetwear brand Cash is King, using his deep roots in hip-hop to build cultural momentum. A pivotal connection with Rev Run of Run-DMC led to the creation of Run Athletics, where Rasheed's leadership helped launch Pastry Footwear with Vanessa and Angela Simmons. The brand quickly exploded into a $60 million enterprise, fueled by the popularity of MTV's Run's House and Young's vision for merging fashion with culture.   But Rasheed's story doesn't stop there.   Today, he's deeply committed to mentorship and social impact. Through programs aimed at stopping gun violence, Rasheed is helping young people rethink their value and purpose. One of his latest ventures, Blackthumb, places greenhouses on top of public schools — teaching kids how to plant, nurture, and grow life. His philosophy is simple but profound: “If you can teach a child how to nurture life, they'll think twice before ever taking one.”   We speak on the importance of knowing your worth, the impact of the rooms you're in, and how legacy is built not just by what you achieve, but by what you give back.

Host Sarah Burke speaks with Red, a popular Toronto radio personality.

Red shares memorable experiences, the challenges of transitioning through career changes, and the importance of authenticity in her personal and professional life. Sarah and Red explore the nuances of navigating opportunities in the media landscape, the evolution of podcasting and radio, and the importance of representation and community connection.

When Justine first met Rev Run they were both teenagers. He was performing at a Kurtis Blow concert and Justine and her friends went backstage to meet him. After a memorable evening, Justine reached out to Rev (who was just Joseph at the time) and while they talked for a bit, they eventually both went their separate ways. Who knew that years later the two would reunite and their passion for the church, and love for each other would guide them both down this new journey. In this 2017 interview for the second season of Black Love Doc, Rev Run and Justine share what a relationship meant when ensuring that God was number one, how Justine navigated coming back into Rev's life after he had a divorce, and what being on a reality show meant to them. Rev and Justine's 20+ year marriage is a testament to what it means to truly be in a partnership.Today's episode is sponsored by Target!

The is absolutely no denying that Run-DMC changed the face of music…not just because they were the forefathers of hip hop…but also because their collaboration with Aerosmith on “Walk This Way” kicked the door down, opening up a whole new world....in fact, the ENTIRE WORLD…to two guys from Hollis Queens NY….and over the years, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels has become a great friend to us here on the Morning Show. So, with he and Rev. Run reuniting tonight for a show at the 37th Annual Late Night in the Phog event at Allen Fieldhouse at KU, D was good enough to come down and spend the morning with us!! And along the way, we talked to Johnathan Walton about his podcast “Queen of the Con” (based on the true life tale of his best friend turning out to be an international con artist who bilked people out of hundreds of thousands of dollars….AND our pal Jeremy Dixon stopped by for some high quality fanboy action…AND Mike Bergen stopped by to talk about this weekend's annual Night Train Run!!!

Mohammed is walking his talk as he is spreading messages of unity and compassion in communities and bringing people together.His latest project is something that binds us—faith. He is helping lead the effort to launch one of the first employee resources groups at a Fortune 100 focused on how people connect spiritually.

Welcome to S.C.U.M of the Earth Episode 7! In This episode we will discuss everything surrounding the Sunshine Endurance Run that took place on May 8th in Locus Grove, Ga. This event was put on by Brooke McClanahan to raise money to support her friend Annie Randolph who was diagnosed with breast cancer in late 2020. The event was a huge success and the running community really came out strong to support Kevin and Annie through this difficult time. Donation Link: https://runsignup.com/Race/Donate/GA/LocustGrove/SunshineEndurance6and12HourRun Join us as we sit down with these three and talk about everything that led up to this race and the race itself. Annie's Bio 38 year old wifey to Kevin and mom of Reid 15 and Addie 13. I'm a sales consultant at CarMax, currently out of working fighting cancer and partner in Rev Run. I've been running since high school although I kept it around 3-4 miles until about 14 years ago. I ran a few half's and one full before I discovered ultra marathons. I've run 50+ ultras. Some of my proudest moments were winning first female at H9 50 miler, finishing Pinhoti 100 after it kicked my butt twice before, and getting my red shirt at Strolling Jim with Brookes help. I ran my very first 100 miler at Matthews Knock on Wood 24 hour race! Kevin and Brooke crewed and paced me. It's been a hard year but also beautiful. Kevin has been the most amazing support I could ask for and the love of friends has never been more apparent. I am still running, slowly, as much as I can through treatment. Kevin's Bio 45 yr old husband to Annie and father of 3 boys ages 22, 18, and 14 from my previous marriage and step dad to Annie's two children. I am a buyer for Camax (this job pays the bills) and also co-owner of Revolution Running (this job is our fun hobby). One of our more popular races in the ultra community is the 24 hr track race The Stinger. I have been married to Annie for 4 years. I started running about 15ish years ago to get in shape post college and that initial running 2-3 times a week for 2-3 miles at a time somehow turned into running ultras (which Brooke is somewhat responsible for). I am pretty dang proud of my 3:05 marathon and have been working on trying to break 3, my 24 hr pr of 121 miles, and one and only 6 day performance of 453 miles. I will be running the 24 hr at the Dome in June and will be shooting for 140 miles. Since Covid last year and Annie's cancer diagnosis this year I haven't raced as much but I have still been putting in a lot of training miles. Brooke's Bio CPA and mom of 2 girls (Taylor is almost 15 and Emma is closing in on 12). I've known Annie since 2013 (met her at a local 50k). Been running since I was 9 years old. Ran in middle school, high school, and college competitively. First ultra in October 2010. I've done roughly 70 ultras. Injured pretty badly in 2018 and haven't really raced since then. Best marathon 3:32 (qualified for Boston and ran it in 2015). Completed two 100s - one trail (Pinhoti) and one timed event (Merrills Mile 24 hour). Merrills 100 was in 21:10. Probably my proudest moments in ultras were 3rd female at Lookout Mountain 50 Miler in 2014 (9:28) and Strolling Jim 41.2 miles in 2017 (5:59:02 which got me the hard earned Blue Shirt). Crewed Annie at her first 100 (Matt's race) in 2014. Paced a little but was recovering from a concussion I got during my first 100 attempt at Thunder Rock. I still run about 40 miles per week regularly, and I work a lot.

With so many business moGALS in heels, women dominated the scene from sports to politics, music and beauty. Vanessa Jean Simmons has been the definition of a power across fashion, beauty and entertainment for the past few decades Daughter of hip-hop pioneer Rev Run of the legendary rap group, RUN DMC; it was only fitting that Simmons step into her own at an early age.

A well respected Mompreneur, Simmons has excelled balancing life as a mother to her daughter Ava, television host, actress, model and brand ambassador. She co-owns and serves as the creative director of the teenage scholarship pageant “Miss Teenage California” which not only gives young women a one-of-a-kind weekend long pageant experience, but also awards them with over $20,000 in scholarship funds. Vanessa's unparalleled business savvy, fashion sense and love for beauty and skincare has only fueled her creative fire and has led to the successful launch of her natural and cruelty free skincare line, Sugar Me and her successful Mommy & Me clothing line, Glitter and Lace, featuring fashion forward and playful pieces for both mothers and daughters. Vanessa currently stars in UMC's hit show, Monogamy and BET's breakout hit serise Games People Play and has more incredible opportunities launching in 2020.
