4 ex-cops charged in Tyre Nichols' death barred from police
"A Tennessee commissions voted to strip away police powers from four of the 5 officers fired and charged in the deadly beating of motorists Tyree Nichols in Memphis. The peace officer standards and training commission has voted to decertify three of the 5 officers arrested in connection with the fatal beating of Tyree Nichols in January. A fourth officer, Desmond mills, voluntarily surrendered his certification. His lawyer said it's meaningless at this point, and that his time was better spent defending his client, saying mills was wrongly indicted on the second degree murder count. The lawyer for another fired officer maintained that Nichols was violent during the stop. The Memphis police department had requested the decertification of 7 former officers, including a supervisor who retired before he could be terminated. I'm Jackie Quinn

Jim Bianco on Why the Banking System Has Always Been Broken
"We've seen three bank closures in quick succession. It seems each of them had different causes, but since you're a macro expert, I wanted to ask you about one of the causes that has been much discussed, which is the current high interest rate environment. Do you think that that played a role in if so, what was that role? No, I think it played the primary role in what's been happening. I'm going to use a fancy term and then I'm going to try and define it. This is a liquidity crisis, not a solvency crisis. Now, what does that mean? This is nothing like 2008. In 2008, banks made loans and they bought securities, then they lost a ton of money on them. And they were unable to meet their obligations because of losses. In 2023, banks made loans and they own securities, which were largely good. There was no real problem with security. I know people are trying to make a big deal about this unrealized loss, but that's not a real problem. What happened was everybody wanted their money back on the same day. And a bank can't turn to a loan in a mortgage and a bunch of securities and sell them all in the next four minutes and raise cash in order to meet those obligations. This is what costs these banks to fail. If you want a better explanation of this, go watch the bank run and it's a wonderful life. This is exactly what happened in the 1930s. So this is from 80 years ago. What's going on in the markets? This is not from 15 years ago. It's a liquidity problem. It's not a solvency problem. Now that I've defined it, the problem was interest rates. In both directions, both zero interest rates for 14 years, I think was the bigger problem in raising of interest rates. What happened with banks coming into a year ago was they had enough deposits. They didn't need any more deposits. So when the fed started raising rates, you might have noticed, I have noticed that your bank never raised your rate. Your savings account, you're checking account are still somewhere near zero on your interest rate. A lot of people think that that's because they're supposed to be there. No, they're supposed to follow the market. You're checking account should be giving you 4% on your money. Your savings account should be giving you 4% on your money. It's not. And that's because the banks didn't need to attract any more money.

Genuine Worship
"John chapter four versus 23 and 24, but the hour is coming and is now here when the true worshippers will worship the father and spirit and truth. For the father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. There is so much here in this conversation. She just is having with this woman at the well about living water that springs up wells up into eternal life just to remind her to you today that Jesus is a living water for your soul that will never ever run dry. So to seek him over and above everything in this world. But then you get later on in the conversations you just having with this formula and he starts talking about worship of God in spirit and truth for the father is seeking such people to worship him. Just think about those two together and John chapter one we see Jesus full of grace and truth, not just grace, not just truth, but grace and truth together here worship is described by Jesus as being marked by spirit and truth because God is spirit and God is true. So we want to make sure our worship of God, whether our every day worship as we offer our bodies as living sacrifices before God, Romans chapter 12 verse one, or our gathering with God's people for worship, is marked by both of these things by truth and the truth about who God is, anchored to the truth of God's word and that we are led by the spirit in our everyday lives and when we gather together for worship. This is not just mechanical motion. This is spirit lead worship that we give to God. And so when we gather in our churches, let's make sure that they are marked. Let's make sure that our gatherings are marked by worship in spirit and truth

Joe Biden Blames Trump Administration for Bank Failures
"And I'm not quite sure Joe Biden understands what's really going on. Cut number 8 plays. And finally, we must reduce the risk of this happening again. During the Obama Biden administration, we put in place tough requirements on banks, like Silicon Valley bank and signature bank, including the Dodd Frank law to make sure that the crisis we saw in 2008 would not happen again. Unfortunately, the last administration rolled back some of these requirements. I'm going to ask Congress and the banking regulators to strengthen the rules for banks to make it less likely this kind of bank failure would happen again. And to protect American jobs and small businesses. Look, the bottom line is this, Americans can rest assured that our banking system is safe. Your deposits are safe. Let me also assure you we will not stop at this. We'll do whatever is needed. On top of all that, let's also take a look at a moment to put the situation of broader context. We've made strong economic progress in the past two years. We created more than 12 million new jobs. More jobs in two years than any president has ever created in a single four year term. Unemployment is below 4% for 14 straight months. Take on paper workers is going up, especially for lower and middle income workers. And we've seen record numbers of people apply to start new businesses more than 10 million of them more than 10 million applications over the net last two years, starting businesses. Now we need to keep the program this progress going. That's what swift action that my administration over the past few years is all about. Protecting depositors, protecting the banking system, protecting the economic gains we've made together for the American people. Thank you, God bless you and may God protect our troops. Thank you. So look, anyway, look, here's the deal. They're bailing out this bank. They're not calling it a bailout, but that's exactly what it is.

Rep. Bob Good: Calling for 1990s-Era Work Requirements on Welfare
"The things I really appreciate about your plan is to actually embrace the Bill Clinton era, work requirements on welfare. I think for me, and we're going to get to that in a second, but congressman just imagine how far the Democrat party has moved to the left when they were the ones who actually embraced these ideas of, hey, you know, if you're gonna get all welfare, you gotta show us your, you're out there trying to get a job. No question. There's our 3 million less Americans working today than there were when Biden became president and not only is it costing us we're going to save about $30 billion a year on the spending side by having able bodied Americans return to work. So not only is there an economics budgetary savings there, but it will fuel the economy, job creators, employers and businesses can not increase productivity, can not invest in their businesses the way they want to in terms of growing that business without workers. And so there's a cultural component to it. There's a moral virtue that's part of work that we're hurting our country, our hurting our society. We're also against we're spending money to provide federal subsistence to people who are able to work, but then also we're holding back our economy. This president is projected to continue like the anemic 1% economic growth. We got to get back to Trump's pro growth policies, three to 4% growth, which means cutting the regulations again instead of increasing means keeping Trump's tax cuts in place and cutting taxes even more. It means getting Americans back to work as you've just noted there. And it means unleashing American energy again. All those are critical to getting the economy churning again, which will mean we can get to fiscal balance more quickly than we can. We're just trying to cut our way there alone. We got to cut the spending no question, but we all got also got to get Americans back to work, get the economy going again.

So the way typically one you move to disperse snoring in children An as well. But it's not just occasional snoring. Some people will feel. my child. Smells when yeah the coal on my child snores. When he asked some allergies maybe smallest one or two times a week. This is more like persistent evergreen almost every night at least three or four nights a week of snoring sometimes you may actually here pauses and so not hearing them. Snore may not be a good sign either. Be may their breathing or gusts in You may see things like a child who was initially dry during the night now. Bed-wetting again just like really renew restlessly. They just turning all over snoring sweating excessively. So there's quite a number of symptoms and then the other piece is what the functions like during the day May be more crunchy. You know they may be more hyperactive or sneaky. Eba run interesting for most children when they're when behalf sleep apnea you. Don't you may not necessarily about excessive immense with Actually be settled almost like overtired over wired and so you may see more of a hyperactivity on things like that so if if your child has in your those symtoms. it's usually helpful to check in with the pediatrician.

It's now like on almost daily Gordon to just bring it up with the pediatrician. Well thank you for sharing Think gum on the parents listening really appreciate just happens. Dean able to like qui n focus on if they because they may have already heard that kid snoring they may have already picked up some signs and just kind of not completely sure and that really gives them like a starting point to start.

Yes definitely especially talking about our kids want them to be healthy and thriving you know as a teenager and then go into a dog the the best that they can the best health in health you know and how it affects everything so important yes now just real quick we're talking about Sleep been you know. Is there any a lot of people like to do. I like to do rituals. I have a little ritual that you know gets me calm. Most of the time. As long as i leave the ice cream Do you recommend that people kinda like develop something like a a routine or of any kind or ritual. That really really gets them to that.

"And the next two things i'm going recommend are also on my amazon page if you want them but the go macro mini bar the oatmeal chocolate chip. One it's called heartwarming retreat. And that is definitely might go to one of my go-to snacks right now. I always had them on me and their many. So they're perfect and actually this flavor. The mini ones tastes better. Sometimes i eat a full-size macro bar but something about the way they make this or do whatever they do to it. The mini ones just tastes better than the big ones. So i highly recommend that and then lastly the fourth thing. I'm recommend if you have a cat. Is the cat backpack that we use to bring the cat home from california. It's by pet kit and it could be for cats kittens or small dogs if you want but there is a built-in little fan and light situation and it's really comfortable to carry for yourself and it just looks super cute. It kind of looks like this little cat. Spaceship pod thing but my daughter loved it. I love it and we'll be using it a lot to take our cat places if we need to so just wanted to let you all know specifically what that was because it's another thing that i got tons of questions on so maybe just keep that in mind if you have a cat or you might be getting a cat. Something super cute or a small dog could fit in there as well. Okay parents listen up. There is an account. You need befalling on instagram. If you're not already. And it's dr becky. Maybe if you're not apparent near just around kids or you've got nieces and nephews like it's just good account to follow. She's dr becky kennedy and her handle. Is becky at good inside. So that's you need to be following. And she put up a tip the other day for manners. And i thought it was kind of genius because normally are in the past until i saw this tip. I had been like okay. What do you say if my kid forgot to use their manners. Like i'm like oh you know. What do you say after this. And that's just like our typical goto response. But she says that we need to make playful like if your child forget to say thank you. Don't call them out on it. You actually get playful with it. And i'm at play the audio because she explains it better than i do. So here's the tip dr. Becky put up on instagram then. Next time your child forgets to say please thank you instead of forcing them to say those words or getting into a power struggle at playfulness. Entrust that this will help the next time ohno. Those places are lost again under the table and don't seem to be there they over there on that bookshop. Oh they are both got them back in your body. Glad they're there for the next time. Okay so i will say. I've tested this out on both of my kids like with my son it worked. He's younger but my daughter she's fourteen and she thought this was like so ridiculous. But actually i love the way it embarrasses her a little bit and so i think in a weird way. It's also working on her because she doesn't want me to do the playful game with her ever. I've done it in public as well like we were shopping and i was like oh i got her something and i was like. Where did it go. you lost it. Where where is it trying to. And then she's like thank you more like she doesn't want me to do it like she finds it to be awkward so i think she's going to remember her manners to avoid the awkwardness where i really feel like if you have a young child like a toddler or someone like my son is ten but someone like a child. That's like super young even though it worked on my son as well it'll definitely work and they won't really get embarrassed. It's just more fun way for them to remember their manners instead of like feeling like any type of shame or anything so i like idea of being playful. That's something that we're working on in our house to is just keeping things light and playful and looking for those teachable moments but not like trying to call our kids out on certain things and make them feel like they've done something wrong like we have a.

Ann arbor like on a walk and i was wearing them and so i thought i would let you'll know they're outdoor voices. They the relay three inch short. And i got them in leopard-print but i'm probably going to order other colors because i really am obsessed with them and i want to wear them all the time. The next thing. I want to recommend has to do with shaving face now. I've mentioned it many many times like i love shaving. My face been doing it for years now and i used to highly recommend the tinkle razors which i still like those. If that's your preferred tool to use. But something i've been using lately and i still get questions about just wanna clarify. Here is the gillette disposable razor but you can't get the type with the extra little moisture strip that breaks my face out for some reason. You just have to get the regular disposable razors.

"Or playing video games. The maybe we should spend a five to ten minutes writing out to do list on paper engaging our brains with that can make sleep easier. The authors of the study said only focusing on a task problem or activity helps to distract the brain and helps us get to sleep previous research backs this up with one study finding that spending five minutes to write down upcoming tasks before going to bed helps offload the worried thoughts that tend to keep us up at night. Not only did it help. People fall asleep faster but the study found that the more specific people were with their to do list the faster they fell asleep so i guess yeah if you are going to bed with like worried about different things that you have to do if you lay it all out then. Yeah maybe it'll make you feel better and you rest easier so speaking of articles and sleeping at night. I did see one other thing that i wanted to share with you all because we do talk about cold showers here on the podcasts. Because i'm a big fan of them. Not everybody is not everybody feels the same way about them. But i personally feel better when i take them but i did see an article saying that we should actually avoid taking super hot or super cold showers before bed. Apparently we should be just taking warm showers one to two hours before going to bed because it helps your body cool off since it will warm your lens and then cool off the central parts of your body cooling down your body will help you fall asleep faster but it doesn't get you to cold that perks you up and wakes you up and then also went into which is better night shower or a morning shower and experts agree that it's really a matter of preference.

"To check social media the news etc is telling me that i'm trying to run distract and hide. I need to face the anxiety action for you. When you're feeling anxious. What ways do you run away. See if you can stay with the fields to four emotional sift. This is a phrase. I used to describe getting to the bottom of what's really going on. We don't need to do this when things are wrong. In fact i suggested doing it when things are right but after a weekend. I have some emotional things to unpack so at some point. I need to sit down. Get quiet grab a journal and let it out action for you. Grab a journal led a brain up in sault. Just right. don't hold back. Don't judge and don't worry about anyone ever seeing it. In fact crumble it up and throw it out after if you wish thing five breathe. The first thing we do is stop breathing. When we're stressed in the labor class that i'm taking and practicing one of the skills we learn as balloon breathing and anyone can do it so action for you breathe in through your nose and let your belly expand as if a balloon is inside. Exhale and imagine the balloon deflating as air leaves through your nose thing six nature. Get out there. If you can feel the bear grass smell. The flowers walk without headphones. Nature is my greatest healer and yet it is so forgotten. When i get caught up in all the business action for you. Pick five minutes in any one thing that you can do to ground yourself now. Having spent the first half of monday working through most of these suggestions. I can tell you that my aunt is still here and i'm not at full peace but that is perfectly okay. I continue to hone and practice these self-care methods even though they don't cure me forever. I don't do these things for the result. I do them because learning how to react differently to our feelings not cure them is what true wellness is about all right. So that concludes lisa's newsletter. There and i just thought it might be helpful for any of you. That may be woke up with some an z. This week as lisa likes to call anxiety and z. I like that and speaking of an this is someone's real name. And i thought i would just throw out there since i co host outweigh with lisa. Our latest episode. We had a guest story featuring an outweigh listener named and the episode is titled. All i ever cared about was wait and an has been dieting. Since she was eight years old and in this episode she opens up about how dieting impacted or self esteem led to binge eating and her constant quest to lose weight she also shares. How a doctor created diet plan was the worst thing that she ever did and how she broke free from diet culture so if you would like to listen to an story i highly encourage you to go over to the outweigh podcast. Once you're done listening to this or you've got some other free time and you listen to ann's story i think you'll enjoy it. And then of course you can subscribe to outweigh and every saturday. A new episode will load up into your feed and we keep him short there about thirty minutes or less but it could be that dose of encouragement support that you need if you're trying to also recover from any disordered eating or an eating disorder so that's outweigh and then lisa podcast again. It's called the trickiest life and then her. Instagram is at lisa hayme which is l. a. s. h. a. y. m. If you want to give her a follow okay so apparently making to do less before bed might help you fall asleep. I saw this article. And i thought it was worth sharing because hey we're always looking for different ways to help get a good night's rest and here's the story. It's from best life online and it says lots of us watch. Tv before bed but research shows that are late night. Television viewing can keep us from getting to sleep because it stimulates.

"Kick with amy brown happy thursday. Welcome to the fore things. Podcast amy here. And i thought i was going to have an interview for you today. But my guests had to reschedule. So you got me for all four things. But i feel like i've got some good stuff for you. We're gonna talk about sitting with anxiety of also got some things to do at night for possibly a better night's sleep. I have four things that i'm going to recommend for you something that i'm adding into the podcast here. And they're just things that i am using or loving or you are asking a lot about when i post something and then lastly i have a tip for manners if you happen to be a parent. You're gonna wanna listen to this one for sure all right so first thing sitting with anxiety my friend lisa hayme who i co host outweigh with and she has her own. Podcast called the trickiest live. I've shared her newsletters with you often. Because gosh they're just so good. And i get them in my email and then i read over them. And i'm like oh. This is something that i want to share with my listeners. Because i think it's a value for sure so this is the newsletter that lisa's sent out and it was titled sitting with anxiety. Lisa said i woke up on monday with a real funky visit from an z. What i sometimes call my old friend. Anxiety i could feel an in my titan tummy. Shallow breath and continuous reach for the cell phone and repeated opening of the same apps. I needed nothing to do with. Let me stop right here and be clear about one thing. My goal is to not cure or rid myself of an. We're in this life together. And i don't think it's possible nor is that the best method of trying to control the beast. Although this was once my approach my goal is to avoid aggravating her and perhaps use methods of anxiety management to tame her the best. I can or perhaps learn why she's paying me this visit so i'm going to share with you my plan that i use if you two are having a visit from an number one break from the plan. I wanted to share something on instagram. That i felt called to share with yesterday. The message is important but the timing is also key. This can wait. I reminded my busy brain and action for you. Is there something in your life. That can wait that. You're adding urgency to for no reason..

"Spend your being anti-racist and in the very next moment these are descriptive terms and so it's really on us to think about. Is that idea connoting that a certain group is better or worse or than than another. Is that policy leading to more equity inequities so now that those are defined in learning how to be anti-racists for an adult. What is step one in your mind slip. One is definition. what's that's why and how to be an anti-racist inker every chapter on on a definition so enter define a few more terms racist idea is any concept that suggest. A racial group is superior or inferior to another racial In any way so it's for us to be like based on the definition that we hold that idea that i just said is a racist idea. An anti-racist ideas very opposite any idea that suggests the racial groups are are equals antle those Definitions allow us to assess idea. Same thing with policy is any measure that leads to racial equity or injustice between groups is a racist policy in anti-racist policy is very opposite which is you know any measure that leads to racial equity or justice between groups and so again it you know having definitions allow us to assess ourselves you know assess ourselves and and improve ourselves. I would feel in your position. Sometimes it's different people that you may be encountered. It can get a little discouraging. What is something that gives you. Hope like what keeps you going. It is likely it's hard to know for sure you know about the viewpoints of of the american people have hundreds of millions of people here but based on surveys over the last year. It's likely there has never been more americans who recognize not only the existence of racism. But that it's a big problem. It breached as highest seventy six percent last june and so we have a governing majority of americans who who see racism as a problem is a big problem. And so that's certainly gives me hope. We just have to now turn that awareness. Obviously into action. Just certainly not easy. I think even for the people that do become aware and they want to do something. They're like wait. But but what what do i do. We're big on gratitude here and it's the four things podcast so i often have guests just share with me for things that they're currently thankful for the day that i'm talking with them so could be big thing small things but just kind of lets us get to know you ana on a day-to-day level. So can you share with us. Four things you're thankful for today. Thankful that my mother recently turned seventy years old in. She's still strong and fabulous and and and really living life to the fullest and we were able to all get together and celebrate her. You know on on independence day weekend and so. I'm just thankful for her and thankful yo to do that as long suffering the knicks fan. I'm thankful that the knicks made the playoffs even though we lost quickly this past year. I am thankful really thankful for my colleagues at the center of anti racist research at the u. And all that were were building in. Of course i'm of course very thankful for my my wife and my daughter imani who kicked me on my toes. Thank you for sharing those four things with us. And i'm sure takes takes a lot to do what y'all are doing. A lot of people on your team and the difference that y'all are making super important especially part of that difference being your podcast and the resources more and more resources you just keep putting stuff out there for us to consume. And i appreciate that so just wanna encourage people to listen to it as another resource for themselves. It's a weekly interview show where you're challenging people to consider what an anti-racist society might look like and how we as individuals and even communities can play an active role in building it so people are listening right now and they're like okay. Yeah i do want to start the maybe by listening to that they can start to hear ideas of how they can start implementing the policies and the change. Cms precisely how we structured the podcast to to really deed on different forms of racism. You know with the compelling expert to really think through. What would each of us can do to tackle voter suppression or to tackle the intersection of racism. Able ism or racism and homophobia or to tackle racism in sport. You know and so that's why we're calling it. An action podcast. Well i love it. And i just encourage people yes to check it out. I think part of to another thing that we're big on here is trying to keep an open mind and wanting to evolve and grow and learn and not just remain stock and repeating the cycle. I actually really do appreciate open minded. People will tell me. I completely understand what you're saying and i've read it. I just don't agree because at least they listen. At least they are considering and ultimately we can continue the conversation. And you know i can change. They can change. And but ultimately. I mean it's that open mindedness that i think is the key to to unity. Which has a lot of us have been talking about. We don't have we have to be open minded to get. Thank you dr ebrahim for coming on joining us today. And i'll be linking all of your books and resources in the show notes. So i encourage people to check it all out. I thank you so much.

"More of a presence A blood is still here of course but a more of a solid cultural presence and so forth just i. I'm not sure that he was blind eye. It's just like these people don't care and and when you don't care you can do anything to any other human being and morally justify it or the justification that these people engage in is it's mind boggling. 'cause like almost every day i learn more about our history and the impact. The different minority groups had on it. And how for most of my life that was hidden or whitewashed. Frankly good example. We had Memorial day and learning memorial day was really the first memorial day was a group of former slaves that dug up a mass grave of soldiers to bury them individually and honor them for helping free them. And that's why we have memorial day but the fact that that we don't even talk about the fact that's where it was from. Everyone just assumes its military holiday that we've always had and that i don't know what his rank was that military that service officer who was speaking about that in ohio and the people just cut his microphone off just in the middle of his conversation middle of his speech. They had asked him to remove it and he refused. Like it's a game. These things are not gains. These are things that shape how people think and how they think. It's okay to behave and i think what what the former president did was. We've always had simmering tensions and we all have to figure out how to navigate that all the time in many spaces. It's easier for some people than for others particularly if you're on the top. But he just took the lid off of it and i. I don't know how easy it's going to be to get that back under contr sometimes control. Certainly we can't just ignore it and one of the things that i like about being within these kinds of conversations is that some of us are trying to do the work that it takes to get ourselves healed. I'm not gonna say back where we work because we were not correct. And that's why all of this stuff is there that is available for bubbling over. We need some healing as a nation. And i think that in many ways it mirrors what you do when you're looking for personal healing have to talk about things. There can't secrets limit. Certainly can't be secrets that someone else has is making you. Keep and that is well. That's what that is what happened with tulsa and so we still have the festering arguments one hundred years later. when will we learn. When will we learn. And then we have at the university of north carolina. Nicole hannah jones first of all being offered a tenured Chair and some vocal people who didn't like some historical work that she did work on history that she did pulling the plug on her. And just saying your tenure is not going forward and we're going to bring pressure to bear because we have that kind of power and power power is concentrated in the hands of too few people. And what are we going to do about that because you and being. Absolute power corrupts absolutely and these people are absolutely trunk with their own. Power does visit to tell so it. Was it your first visit here absolutely. I never visited when my father was alive meshing. I think all our listeners would love to hear. That was tells us at its. I am know how to describe what that view of tulsa would be. But what did you of tulsa while. You're here i grew up in san francisco and i live in washington. Dc and actually met some relatives of mine for the very first time not on the jones parasite on on the brunner hawkins side but much slower paced and a vibrant core and there are a lot of people there with purpose. And i liked that a lot but of course. Those are the people that i was going to meet because of the time and also because of my reason for being there. I don't think i had a real opportunity to get out and meet folks in without this kind of predefined narrative if you will and frankly i spent a lot of time in my hotel room talking on zoom call at giving interviews in just trying to let people know as much as possible about how important the work is that my grandmother did in how incredibly proud i am to be part of this project with trinity university press. They're really they. Were really great to me. What What hotel were you at At the ambassador a okay good anyway for our listeners. One of our co host is married to someone who is the was the general major in the bathroom. She got promoted. But it's the only hotel will will ever recommend a gotta do what you got it. Yeah it seems like too often. That america is quick to move on to things like this. A lot of energy goes into it and then as jesse said everybody leaves town and the majority of the consciousness of america moves on. And i know this is only. It was a horrific event but it's only one event in a pretty horrific history of racial violence for america. So i always wonder how. How do you feed off the momentum of something like this and keep people from going back to sleep on on these type of events. That's a great question particularly because president biden came down there and that was that really added a lot of gravitas. To this whole conversation people can pick about what he said when he didn't say and all that kind of thing but symbolically for me for america general garland to come down as his first official visit during his.

"I'm richie philanthropy. Jesse vice admiral flint pod. Chris miller and today our guests are laurel and riley carbone kern founders of tall grass estate. Planning their goal was to create a different kind of law firm when they're reaches out to people who are routinely overlooked traditional law firms or people who are hesitant to work with traditional law firms we talked to riley in laurel about social justice through estate planning the lord of the rings and why everyone needs estate planning even sar on the deceiver enjoy. We are very excited. Have riley and laurel kaduna kern from tall grass estate. Planning on the podcast today. Hello both of you view. Elo mainly grits. Thank you welcome. Mo- more popular of the two of us. I would say it's all the incheon. Listen we fight over the attention. That's always been our problem. And i relate to. That aren't i don't have to fight for our listeners. They're going to be asking this point why we are having an estate. Planning company on the podcast. So we'll start with the most basic question which is how is estate planning social justice issue. I recognize that estate. Planning sounds like feels like smells like the most untold listed whitebread topic. Anyone has ever thought about. We are as spicy as as yes manny's however we are grateful to be able to do a fair amount of pro bono low bono work and we see in that practice a number of things pop up like over and over and over again people who their grandparents great grandparents own a piece of property and then didn't know about estate planning and so now they're in a situation where like fifteen people own it To be able to like apply for grants for certain things they would need to track all of down or pay for a quiet title action. It should be something that is giving them wealth insecurity but instead it's costing them money to have this asset and if you know what state planning is if you're willing to hear about it and learn about it It can really enhanced generational wealth for for non. Just you know middle class. America or or upper class market but like literally everyone. And that's why it's so important to us to help. People understand estate. Planning is for every single person. The the misconception is that estate planning is about figuring out who gets your stuff when you die and there's a whole lot of people who look at their lives and think i don't have stuff so who cares That's that's a wrong understanding of what it is. It's really just about making sure that the right people are in control at the right times of the right things and what we see your your question about it. Being a social justice issue is that there are massive disparity in who plans for that kind of control and because all of us no matter. What our demographic Racial status religious status nationality cetera. All of us are subject to losing that control because of disability and death because of the disparity in who plans there's also a disparity generational wealth and the influence political influence financial prosperity. That come along with that so over generations you see the disparity linked to you know we think of as as a as a pretty clear as one example reinforcement of systemic racism. Disproportionately people who have large amounts of money are larger. Amounts of money are thinking about doing estate planning right. It has occurred to them. Hey i should probably do a power return. He get a trust in place right but the reason that they're doing that planning the things that they see may be happening down the down the line in their lives and being possible. Those things are possible for every single person regardless of how much you have but if you have a plan in place it's gonna affect your life and your loved ones a lot differently than if you don't have that planning in place

"Oh probably just like. We're like goose hearts like eight in this risk in chicago. It's like a nordic tasty. Many restaurants was delicious. But you know really game. He stuff is probably at for me. I'm sure there's like as soon as we finish. Of course i'm going to think of something my weirdest fanciest are probably two different things. My weirdest was probably a blood soup. Which was actually really good. It sounds weirder than it is like. Just hot. The thai dish or yeah. Yeah yeah yeah. It was in the wrong work. Blood isn't it. Yeah but the soups like super hot. So it kind of cooks up the blood anyway so just sort of like it was good. Not exactly selling it. But don't worry when it thickens it. Don't worry guys. I didn't drink rob blood. Tastes like a pork soup. Plus it spicy still. You know you're still not telling me all right the other one log candy bar at a restaurant once where they replaced like what would be the nougat in a candy bar with like a flog raw thing. I don't know it was in. It was in las vegas. And i can't remember what the name of the restaurant was. That's that's cool. I'm into that feels very las vegas. I think i think i know probably. I don't know that it's it's weird to call it the weirdest but i think anyone eating it would be like yeah. This is extremely weird. Is like a common food in japan but When i was a kid we went to like. We have these. We've visit japan. We had this like wealthy friend. Mr yoshi tonia his house. I was starving and i was like five. Sounds like look on. The table did not know what a lot of this stuff was. You know there's like fish and things had never seen. And i saw what was like surely potato you would think was surely potato so i ate it I forget whether it's called mall is Like sweet potato. It's called sato anymore. But it's basically like it looks like potato but internally it's like the slimy part of okra like the whole thing is like over slime so i was starving. I just put the whole thing my mouth which is still basically how i eat and it like smashed into just like a mouthful of slime and i guess i'd like sat there for a long time. I didn't spit it out. 'cause like i just that was me as a kid. I was like whatever i'm eating. I'm getting to eat. But i like basically did not eat for the rest of them. My mom is like asking me later. What happened. And i was like so bad but i don't know actually i don't eat a lot of like really fancy. I don't know i'd have to really think about that. I don't seek out super fancy food. I mean because when you're hungry you want to be comforted not confused or exploratory. I guess i think we've all been at some point in our life where we were trying to eat really cheap because money was tight And i remember when i was in that situation. It was stuff like you know. I was making a crock pot of rice and beans. Because i can make that for about four. Boxing stretch it over most of a week right. So it's i. I think most people when they think of i need each cheap. They think of stuff like that. Right that i'm gonna go buy the cheapest meat and make a big pot goulash. I'm going to try to eat that for you know so it's kind of interesting to see your take on it. It's not just feeding people but it's also kinda you can kinda show people like..

I think finally africa in how we viewed ourselves in how we see how we can truly be a of hope for tulsa but also for for the nation and around the world i think that truly demise what would feel is and so obviously it was a project where we galvanize sixty artists primarily from tulsa oklahoma city long and we recorded the project in march twenty twenty and always give people context that oklahoma city thunder utah jazz. That tuesday night in rudy. Gobert came out with kobe. We were planning to start recording on thursday. I got a call. From my boss. Steve higgins shadow stevens news. Like are we still doing this. I was like st if we do not do this weekend. Filed africa will not exist and won't be whole world shutdown right after weekend. We recorded. so yeah it's just been really dope to see we recorded over one hundred and forty three songs in five days and we actually developed the model outta j cole has labeled greenville dabble compilation album. Revenge of the dreams came out between nineteen. And i was actually in my dissertation. I was actually finishing my dissertation. And i saw the documentary on youtube. It's like thirty minutes. And i was just amazed at j cole talked about you. Know i never want to regret not being able to work with another artist. In so the first to having a dreamers mainly artists on the label and in the third one was they invited artists from around the world and they recorded think three hundred songs in ten days and was riding by the petition. Lashing documentary and i was like man. If i if. I ever get a chance to do that. It would be awesome. Lo and behold here we we are laughter is a key member of project it is for the ancestors it is for the artists. It is for those who feel marginalized and oppressed sa- conversation to black people about like loving themselves. It's thou truly holding people accountable. Holdings everyone's feet to the fire as we lead with far africa. Had we put everyone to the fire from myself as executive producer to the artists who are sponsors to whoever how we make sure. We won't accountable so yeah. Laughter is is a movement and and truly something that will speak to the world's in into other black wall street's across world. It seems like right now. Black wall street greenwood is having a bit of a pop culture a little bit. Both nationally and locally. But it feels like at least nationally whether you're talking about what we've seen on a couple of. Hbo shows or otherwise. It's been other people outside of tulsa telling the story telling the narrative so how important for you was it to have people from tulsa connected to tulsa in telling. the story is absolutely vital. I knew this was going to happen. Obviously like anything that's big there's capitalism is probably right behind the door in so it was always been the conversation that with a localize artist the culture we also reflect like we are the new black wall street. We are our ancestors. Dreams is always been vital to get it right leaving actually tried to reach out some of those individuals to say like. Hey like we were here. We wants to support what you're doing to highlight our work. But it hasn't been the case. We're not really worried about it. We're grateful for what they're doing <unk>. Very very adamant about making sure that we're telling the story on on our terms and we even did a lot of research prior to recording malaga artists. That we selected. Were like hey like. I'm grateful for the opportunity but i don't know anything about like wall street. And the ability for us to connect with folks with oklahoma historical society and provide information to artists about two stanley by wall street but oklahoma history like pre statehood greenwood blossoming in the early nineteen hundreds to every renewal to all these different elements every affected. The brain would community. And so we just very intentional. About how do we keep this localized community organization together in a way to truly make ourselves feel proud about what we're giving to ourselves to this community but also to our answers is definitely vital and we also know that. I'll give another example. Charlie wilson on the breakfast club few months back and he charming guy was saying like. Hey like i feel. Like watchmen and in other shows have tried to play with the idea. But i feel like no one is really told a story like way <unk>. In moment i knew that he was talking exactly about final africa. They didn't mention the name. They didn't know anything about it. In a moment. I was like we're filling the void in. We're going to be able to tell the story. In a way that people have heard stories on which on a low crap. Country or watchmen but there's certain particular elements of the story. Were telling that is not being addressed in those particular meetings <unk>. Just need to make sure that i'm correct in this. The the title fire in the africa comes from the cards. That white people sold after the race massacre with a picture of. I'm not sure which building it is burning. But it's at five am. I correct not is accurate is actually the font that you see in there is funded. Shoot that we currently have for. finally <unk>. is traumatizing but yet we're shrine to. It's been really difficult to pandemic the racial epidemic. I see happening. In america to be black in america is it truly is a very difficult and putting this project together while seeing these things happen. Like it's a lot and even me like going to therapy is really saved my life so those things actually were written in and it's unfortunate but those that we're definitely going to talk about
