We kick off Black History Month talking politics in this week's edition of the podcast. In fact, we are doing "A Wellness Check" for all of our listeners, as we are approaching the second year of the Trump Administration. We begin in the first segment talking about the recent I.C.E. murders of Renee Good, and Alex Pretti, along with several others, just within the past 30 days.

We also give the Trump Administration a grade for the lackluster job that they have been doing since being in office. And, taking a look at the "No King" Protests that were taking place last summer, and the one this coming up in March, and asking the question, especially of those who voted for Trump back in November, what has changed about their view of him from then and now. We believe that there are many people who voted for him that have "buyers remorse" and they are upset, because they aren't getting what they were promised from Trump, and now they want to take it to the streets. We've posted the video for this episode on our Thinking Out Loud Radio and TV Youtube Channel, so check it out and feel free to drop your comments there and we will be responding to each one of them.

PLUS, we've got a dynamic Thought of the Week that we've entitled, "The Big If" where we talk about the divine partnership that we have with God in the fulfillment of our purpose and destiny. That, God sometimes partners with us in order for us to receive blessings from Him. God's has an expectation of us, that requires our participation in this divines process. The questions is, what are you going to do?

We ask this question and a lot more in this week's "Wellness Check" Edition of the Thinking Out Loud Radio Show.

Join us for the Christmas Edition of the podcast, featuring the reigning Miss Michigan, CEO & Global Advocate Ms. Dez Durden. She is our special guest on this week's podcast. In addition, to having an amazing interview with this tremendously gifted, and talented young woman, she's also a Behavioral Therapist who specializes in Mental Health. And, we were able to talk about, not just her journey as the reigning Ms. Michigan 2025, but also share her expertise on Health & Wellness. She shared some important tips on what are some of the signs that someone is on the verge of a mental health crisis. Tips that we should know to help our loved ones or people we know who might be experiencing mental illness especially during this time of year. Ms. Dez also shared some amazing news about her plans for next year that its so BIG, that you will have to listen to podcast to find out, because we don't plan to spill the beans here.

PLUS, we've got a dynamic Thought of the Week centered around the true meaning of this holiday season. And, no it's not about candy canes, or mistle toe, it's not about Santa Clause or Rudolph, but's about the birthday of the greatest man that ever lived, and changed the trajectory of the world at the same time. He lived a life of humility and obscurity, but gave a gift of life that keeps on giving, and His name is Jesus Christ.

We've got a great guest, and an even greater Thought of the Week, with some BIG news smacked dab in between. So, what more reason do you need to listen to this week's Christmas Edition of the show? Enough said!

In this week's edition of the podcast, we sit down with Award Winning Filmmaker and Entrepreneur Anthony Green to discuss his newest project, the documentary chronicling the COVID crisis that shook up the world. "The Memo" is the name of Anthony's Green's latest film project that's already won awards, and is steady gaining momentum. We were able to view this powerful documentary during it's red carpet premiere back in the fall of this year.

During, this week's interview Anthony take's us behind the scenes and shares with us his filmmaking process, from storyboarding to capturing film, interviewing people and more. We cover not just the COVID crisis, but also the horrific rise of Police Brutality in the Black Community and the death of George Floyd. This is definitely an interview you don't want to miss.
