Elon Musk's xAI project is building one of the world's largest supercomputers in South Memphis—but at what cost? In this episode, we break down the environmental, economic, and ethical implications of xAI's expansion. From toxic gas turbines and unpermitted operations to water consumption and job promises that may bypass the very people most affected—this is a deep dive into how unchecked tech might exploit low-income Black communities under the guise of innovation.#Memphis #xAI #ElonMusk #EnvironmentalRacism #SouthMemphis #DataCenter #BlackCommunities #MLGW #MemphisPolitics #TechAccountability #MemphisVoices #WaterJustice #TennesseeEnvironment #Grok

Jozzy pulls up to The Underground Lounge and delivers one of the most layered, unfiltered conversations yet. Lou, Spank, and Holly dive deep with the Grammy Award winning songwriter turned artist as she shares how her journey took her from South Memphis to writing some of the biggest songs in music—only to realize that success behind the scenes comes with a price.She opens up about what it really took to break out as a songwriter in a city that didn't understand the lane she was chasing, and why leaving Memphis was more survival than strategy. Jozzy shares behind-the-scenes moments with legends like Missy Elliott, her experience navigating a cutthroat industry, and the frustration of being a hitmaker with little credit, until she decided to flip the script and step into the spotlight.But it's not just about the music. The episode takes a turn as Jozzy unpacks a recent situationship that left her blocked, confused, and questioning her own patterns. From pursuing straight women to learning tough lessons about boundaries, respect, and accountability, she keeps it brutally honest—and hilariously relatable. There's talk of DMs, “business calls” gone left, Cash App peace offerings, and the fine line between love and ego in the public eye.This episode is part music industry masterclass, part relationship therapy, and all the way Underground Lounge. Whether she's talking Billboard hits or emotional misses, Jozzy holds nothing back,and that's exactly why you'll be locked in from start to finish.

In the heart of every shadow that plagues our communities, from the silent cries of the trafficked to the silent battles of addiction, We Fight Monsters stands as a beacon of hope and defiance. Born from the shared experiences of those who've faced the abyss and emerged to tell the tale, our organization is a testament to the power of resilience and the strength of unity.

He's also the owner of BlackRifle Co, a data intelligence and digital media agency not to be confused with the coffee company of similar name, and co-founder of two non-profits—We Fight Monsters and Flanders Field—that help people in some of the worst places in America and the world. Ben loves sharing that his wife Jess can drive, load, and fire a M18 Hellcat, a WWII tank destroyer. He’s also the only crackhead ever invited to CIA headquarters. When they’re not in South Memphis helping others rebuild their lives after addiction, Ben and Jess can be found in rural Georgia where they live with their family.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this powerful episode of The Journey, host Larry Robinson sits down with Mark Yates—entrepreneur, executive, Howard grad, and lifelong Memphian—for a deeply personal and unapologetically Black conversation. From growing up in South Memphis and Whitehaven to navigating corporate America and attending an HBCU, Mark reflects on the moments that shaped his identity—including the moment he made a conscious decision to be Black.

In this inspiring episode of The Journey, host Larry Robinson sits down with Memphis native Bobby White—a sharp-witted, service-driven leader affectionately known around the city simply as Bobby. Raised in South Memphis by two educators, Bobby shares how growing up in a house built on structure, love, and high expectations gave him the foundation to lead with heart and humility. From Central High to Morehouse, from teacher to chief of staff, his path is proof that service is more than a role—it's a calling.

From growing up in South Memphis to standing shoulder-to-shoulder with U.S. Presidents, Henry Hooper II has a story of unshakable faith, fearless determination, and living life without excuses. In this episode of The Journey, host Larry Robinson sits down with the legendary Secret Service agent, Olympian, Marine, and proud Kappa Alpha Psi brother to explore how discipline, faith, and integrity shaped his incredible life path.

...What we finna do come tomorrow? ...especially if the overseer of your choice doesn't win ...will you fear power or contest with it? A hallmark feature of any presidential election in a racist country is the continued psychological warfare against the colonized, especially Black people, who, along with Arab Muslims, will be inevitably blamed, scapegoated or strategically pitted against one another in service of the powers that be, for no other reason than if we were to coalesce our efforts toward our own interests and liberation, that could signal the end of empire and all the symbolism, pomp and circumstance that they hope will keep us distracted and placated. We are living in a lie, a constant paradox: Black people are no better off from the open theft and profiteering of our culture by white people but appropriation masked as "multiculturalism" in the media is at an all time high and judging by the decreasing numbers of Black folks in physical public space in major metropolitan cities, is showing no signs of slowing down (if you can just "be" Black, why would you need Black people?). Record numbers of white people are using tiktok and other technologies to fine tune their mimicry of what they think Blackness is while at the same time decrying we won't be "replaced"; Vanity fair is publishing articles about the "radicalization of america's white young men" and giving a well known white supremacist a whole spread about how wealthy "conservative extremists" are calling themselves "anti-imperialists" in a fake populist rebrand while a privately owned newspaper is upset at its billionaire owner for blocking their presidential endorsement and also regularly publishing Israel centric propaganda around freeing the hostages when there are twice as many or more Palestinians held captive before oct 7? This is sometimes peppered with actual unbiased coverage of the genocide here and there (to some individual writers' credit). The US says it is committed to protecting Ukrainian sovereignty after Russia's attempts to annex their land but not that of the Palestinian people...who also had their land stolen? In 2021, Kamala Harris was quoted saying wars are fought over oil but in a few years it'll be over water Elon Musk is building what will be the world's largest supercomputer in South Memphis, TN in a predominately Black community and authorities there greenlit the project with no community input or oversight in a part of the city that is currently plagued by a water crisis, replete with lead and other pollutants. This is 3 years after the community started a successful grassroots resistance movement that stopped two companies who were planning to build a major oil pipeline right in the middle of a historic Black neighborhood. They did the bulk of their organizing during and despite of a Trump presidency. European investors are buying farmlands in water rich areas, mostly in Africa and even in parts of the US to sell to areas that are water poor and dividing up last remaining farmland on earth to take advantage of what they call... “Empire crops” This has been happening under democractic and republican administrations. So again, what's going to be our answer? Will it b a departure from what colonialism wants, thinking about something other than yourself? What's it going to be after you slip that paper in that box?

In “Bala's Bistro: Where Mali Meets Memphis,” Gravy producers Marie Cascione and Joshua Carlucci profile Malian chefs, cousins, and business partners Bala Tounkara and Mady Magassa. Their story takes us from West Africa to the casinos of Tunica, Mississippi, and finally to South Memphis, where their restaurant, Bala's Bistro, has become an emblem of success and belonging for African immigrants in the South.   Today, 21% of Black Americans are either immigrants themselves or children of immigrants. The vast majority of Black immigrants in America live in the South, and Tennessee is one of the fastest growing states for this community.   Bala and Mady both immigrated to Memphis by way of New York City in the early 2000s. Looking for some semblance of community, they landed in Whitehaven, a Black neighborhood that, at the time, had only a small enclave of West Africans. They started cooking in restaurants with no initial plans beyond making money to make ends meet. Over the years spent around fire and knives, Bala and Mady decided to dive into a business venture of their own: making food from home, as they saw it. They opened Bala's Bistro in 2019 to answer the question: Where's all the African food in Memphis?   Though Bala and Mady are from Mali, they make and serve food from all over West Africa. Fufu, egusi, maafe, and saka saga—just to name a few—all make star-studded appearances in the glass display case from which Bala's customers can pick and choose to make their plates. The case looks like a buffet for a reason: Bala and Mady want you to ask about the food.   Bala used to be self-conscious of what he ate back home, but today he embraces it and encourages others to give it a shot. When Memphians wonder about some of the soupy, bubbling concoctions, he explains and gives them samples. He's big on education; he wants curious eaters to satisfy their wonder, but even more, he wants Memphis to know that the soul food they know and love, and the rich and spicy cuisine of West Africa, were cut from the same cloth.   In this episode, Cascione and Carlucci talk to Bala Tounkara and Mady Magassa all about their journey to Memphis and the story of their restaurants. Gravy listeners will also hear from guests, some who come to Bala's for a taste of something new and leave with a sense of community. Having just opened a second restaurant—Mande Dibi—Bala and Mady double down on the idea they hatched long ago. The pair place their bets on African food finding a widely-adored home, just as they did, in Memphis. At the same time, their restaurants have become a place of refuge and community for all who come to eat at their table, whether from Memphis, Mali, or all that in between.

The Biden Administration's recent student debt forgiveness act in the U.S. has sparked conversations—many of them heated—about the nature of fairness, justice, poverty, and economic well-being. In this episode, Michael Rhodes joins Dru to discuss debt forgiveness in Scripture and the modern world. Rhodes surveys the radical Torah policies of cyclical debt forgiveness and the Year of Jubilee, and how they contrast with the debt forgiveness policies in the rest of the ancient Near East. A world of subsistence farming where predatory loans can create cycles of debt slavery and intergenerational poverty may not immediately seem similar to modern America—but on a closer look, similarities appear. Michael Rhodes is a Lecturer in Old Testament at Carey Baptist College in New Zealand. He has worked on community development programs in Kenya and South Memphis, and has also served as a pastor. His academic research focuses on the nature of justice and mercy in Torah economics and ritual meals in Scripture. He is also co-author of Practicing the King's Economy: Honoring Jesus in How We Work, Earn, Spend, Save, and Give. Show notes: 0:00 Debt entrapment and debt slavery 2:53 Predatory lending in the ancient Near East 4:19 Modern American versus ancient Israelite debt forgiveness 7:44 One-off debt forgiveness in the Bible 9:33 Subsistence farming and for-profit colleges 15:15 Intergenerational poverty 22:06 The issue of fairness 26:24 Righteousness, justice, and equity in Deuteronomy and Proverbs 31:04 The ends and means of debt forgiveness 32:26 Jesus and Jubilee Credits for the music used in TBM podcast can be found at: hebraicthought.org/credits.

After a days-long search, a 34-year-old teacher who was allegedly kidnapped while on the run was apparently found dead this week. The Memphis Police Department was summoned at 7:45 a.m. on Sept. 2 to help the University of Memphis Police Department in identifying a missing person, Eliza "Liza" Fletcher. Fletcher was jogging at Central and Zach Curlin around 4:20 a.m. when a "unknown man approached her" and "forced" her into an SUV, according to Memphis Police. Cleotha Abston, 38, was arrested two days later on accusations of exceptionally aggravated kidnapping and tampering with evidence, but Fletcher remained missing. During the investigation, Cleotha's brother, Mario Abston, was reportedly detained on drug charges, but he is "not believed to be involved to Fletcher's kidnapping." According to inmate records, Abston is also charged with identity theft, tampering with/faking evidence, theft of property, and fraudulent use/illegal possession of a credit/debit card. On Tuesday, September 6, Memphis Police said they discovered Fletcher's body in the 1600 block of Victor Street and charged Abston with first-degree murder and first-degree murder in the commission of kidnapping, in addition to the other criminal charges he faces. In a press conference on Tuesday, Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn Davis and other law enforcement officials said that Fletcher's remains had been discovered in an abandoned duplex in South Memphis. According to WREG-TV Abston was allegedly spotted cleaning out his black SUV near where Fletcher was discovered. During the press conference, Davis stated that detectives "haven't obtained very much information" from Abston during questioning. According to the Memphis Commercial Appeal, Fletcher was a junior kindergarten teacher at St. Mary's Episcopal School and previously taught at Promise Academy in Nashville. Her spouse, Richard Fletcher III, and she have two children. He reported her missing after she did not return from her run a few hours later. According to the Commercial Appeal's affidavit, Fletcher was running on the University of Memphis campus when a black GMC Terrain drove by her and paused, waiting for her to pass. According to the affidavit, "A male left the black GMC Terrain, raced aggressively at the victim, and then forced Eliza Fletcher into the vehicle's passenger side. There looked to be a fight throughout this kidnapping." Abston was released from prison in November 2020 after serving a 24-year sentence for aggravated abduction. Fletcher's grandpa, Joseph "Joe" Orgill III, controlled a large hardware distribution empire, according to WREG. In a statement, Fletcher's family said, "This terrible loss has broken our hearts and devastated us. Liza brought excitement to everyone she met, including her family, friends, colleagues, students, parents, members of her Second Presbyterian Church congregation, and everyone else who knew her. Now is the moment to remember and celebrate how amazing she was, as well as to assist those who loved her so deeply. We are grateful for all of the messages of love and care that have been sent our way. We are eternally grateful to local, state, and federal law enforcement for their persistent efforts to find Liza and bring the perpetrator of this heinous act to justice. We hope that everyone, especially media representatives, understands the family's need to grieve privately and without outside interference during this difficult time."
