It's sort of the premise of the whole show in a way it's like a in a way. It's like a sitcom not in that.

You know it's easy to kind of take the view of just looking at stats about you. Know things that are looked at as sort of you know social ills whether to be something like homelessness or drug use or crime or you know see kind of sensationalized headlines but then you watch performance from an actor like michael k williams and you develop real empathy. Not just for the characters but for the communities that sometimes those characters represent and you realize You know people that are in pain are are in desperate situations because of circumstances outside of their control you know i. It's it's easy to pass judgment on different actions but once you kind of are dropped into these different worlds whether it's the wire whether it's the night of whether you know any number of projects he's been involved with you realize you know the real struggles that a lot of people in this country are isolated from and you know having the sort of not just insights into the problem because obviously you know david chase with the wire was a former crime reporter so there is some genuine insights into that world but also the humanity that act michael k williams could bring. I feel like that's that's the kind of thing that causes actual social change. Not just like. Hey we gotta these problems in the world. It's like no these are real people man and performances that he kind of was able to produce throughout his career really demonstrate the humanity behind some of these problems his tied some of the social issues. Yeah that's what i said. Beauty of a lot of the roles that he played And if you've ever never seen him have a conversation with himself about being typecast it is the most. It's the most phenomenal video that i've ever seen. Just i is far especially being a black person. Like i really identify what that video ally.

Sad news i thought i would resurface an interview that i recorded with williams just over a decade ago. Shortly after the first season of boardwalk empire we sat down outside of a cafe in brooklyn which is why the audio quality of this episode is not always. Great to discuss his roller-coaster life and career. And i was blown away by his story and his candor about it as i was by his talent over the course of our conversation. We discussed this complicated childhood and the incident on the night of his twenty fifth birthday. That left him with large facial scar how he became a dancer in music videos. And then through that. An actor. How the rapper to pasha core and the casting director alexa fogel gave him the biggest break of his career. But how even the great success that followed did not help to radically kate his personal struggles plus much more and so without further. Do and with condolences to all who knew and loved michael. Let's go to that conversation. First of all. I have to tell you. I've only recently watched the wire. I didn't see during day. I've watched every episode of boardwalk. But i think you're the coolest i was saying. Something like the black steve mcqueen. It's the best i know. Thank you and So i i hope that we could do is just sort of do like a big picture interview. Just build up to the president And so to begin with. Where were you born and raised in. And what sort of childhood did you have. I'd seen in another interviewee interviewees call the turbulent. What does that mean. Got down the road projects and veria targeted neighbor me and you had a jewish surrounding it and that just made a lot of my house. Oh my mother would also grew up pretty much as to reference the riot. Jay became qana. Freud's tori but i knew that i could always better so i kinda. I became already kid.

Power Returns for Many Texans, but Low Pressure Water Crisis Escalates
"Focus on the ongoing effects from that deadly winter storm that hit several states a few days ago. Earlier today, President Biden approved a major disaster declaration for Texas, which was hit especially hard. The move frees up federal funding to help rebuild and recover from the storm. Throughout the state. Freezing temperatures and extreme weather had a devastating effect on infrastructure, especially the water supply affecting millions of people. Here's Florian Martin of Houston public media with the latest on that volunteers handed out thousands of bottles of water at a distribution side in San Antonio. It's has been challenging because we have five people. Michael Williams came here from the small town of Bernie just outside San Antonio. He says he and his family have been without running water. Since Monday. Our community has in Bernie has really banded together so Challenging, but we can get through it. After days without electricity. The vast majority of Texans have had their power of historic, according to the state's grid manager. Temperatures air back to above freezing in most of the state, But clean water could remain an issue through the rest of the weekend and beyond. The problem is low water pressure. We've seen a task aid of effects. Harris County Judge Lena Hidalgo is the chief executive for the county that includes Houston. The power outages affected the generator. Is that keep the pressure going, and the pipes that have birth have also been a problem for the leading to the loss of water pressure When the pressure sinks below a certain level, Texas cities are required to issue boiled water notices because the water could become contaminated. Notices are in effect in large cities like Houston, Austin and San Antonio. This week, many people ran their faucets and a constant trickle something plumber's advice to keep pipes from freezing. Well, it's a catch. 22 John Ingram is a plumber in Houston. Yes, it does take away water, and we are in a crisis as far as water pressure and keeping Pressure up across the tent city.

Recovery Happy Hour
Inner Child Healing
"Hello Hi everyone welcome to recovery. Happy Hour where we talk about life beyond the bottle and what happens after we stop drinking I'm your host. TRICIA and it's been over thirteen hundred days since my last drink, which has saved me almost twenty grand. Thank you for joining me. Today's episode is a bonus episode yet to celebrate the second birthday of the podcast I decided to release a second episode today so Happy Birthday. What's special about today's to birthday interviews as that they're total opposites. We just had an episode with someone who wouldn't have looked like. They had a drinking problem on paper. And now we've got someone who is drinking and using so heavily in their formative years that they got sober while incarcerated at age sixteen, and now have almost nineteen years of sobriety at age thirty five. Five a common theme with episodes that include long term sobriety is that quitting drinking doesn't just automatically fix her life. There's usually something underneath the drinking that needs to be addressed and I've heard now in a few of my interviews, specifically with men about the efficacy of Inner Child Healing Ryan talks a little bit about that today, and it's something I wholeheartedly believe in myself. Inner child healing in its simplest terms is healing the things that have happened to you and your formative years that have left semi-permanent marks on your psyche. These are experiences that create habits in your brain learned reactions that can repeat themselves in adulthood, if not fully healed. Perhaps you had an emotionally unavailable caregiver or apparent growing up, and you find yourself as an adult sabotaging your relationships by choosing emotionally unavailable partners, or maybe you spoke in front of your school classroom as a child accidentally peed your pants and had someone laugh at you, and now you have full blown panic attacks at the thought of public speaking these are experiences that are stored in the more emotional, less logical right, hemisphere of your brain, and often while you're left. Hemisphere of the brain is setting goals for yourself and being ambitious. The right side has a hard time staying in integrity with those plans. If they're old stored traumas that have never been allowed to heal. These habits can feel impulsive uncontrollable pop up at incredibly inconvenient times they might be triggered by certain people or even the person who is responsible for creating the experience. Most of us have at least one experience like this, even if it doesn't feel like textbook traumatic, but they're stored so deep in our subconscious that sometimes the bad habits that they create are hard to even identify because they feel like they're part of us. Sometimes these bad habits put us in bad positions where we sabotage something consistently your create uncomfortable emotions that make us want drink to cover up the feelings. So when you do the inner child healing, you start to dissolve, the subconscious triggers that make you reach for alcohol? It's like pulling a weed out by its route. Inner Child Healing can be done on your own or with a therapist. A ton by listening to the PODCAST Dharma. PUNKS NYC with Josh Korda huge fan of his. He's been on the show, and it was a really big game changer for me. He focuses a lot on inner child healing, an attachment theory I've also done exercises with my therapist guided meditations on insight timer, specific for inner child healing, or even used an APP for chronic pain, called curable that had writing exercises specific to inner child work. I'm going to list a handful of links and the show notes that you can click on to learn more, and if you're not already using the insight timer APP on your phone for meditation, please download it because one I have used it regularly for almost four years, and it's incredible and to I'm going to include a link to a meditation on the insight timer APP by Justin Michael, Williams I've specifically done this one meditation for the past few weeks, and it's been so powerful for me. My therapist is recommending it to Oliver other clients. The work in recovery never ends. We don't arrive at a finish line once we quit drinking. We just start to uncover the things that are deeply rooted that need a little bit of work. Inner child healing can be one of those things to add to your list to look at when you're ready before we get started. I want to tell you about a company that I love called better help if you're needing some extra help with your recovery or struggling with something that's preventing you from living a happier life that are helped will assess your needs and match you with your own licensed professional therapist. It's not a crisis line or self-help. It's professional counseling done securely online.

"Simon Congress many cities states and countries say that they want to reform police practices but any reforms we need to go through police unions Michael Williams heads the Memphis police union and joins us now thanks very much for being with us Mr Williams good morning how are you fine thank you Sir I want to ask you about the commercial appeal newspaper there points out that the the twenty nineteen city budget called for two hundred sixty million dollars in police services but just a little over four million to housing and they suggested that maybe giving more people shelter it might be a wiser way to spend tax dollars and even bring down the crime rate how do you spell that it is it is hardly wholeheartedly I don't necessarily agree with the funding police but you know this is something I've been working on not just as a union president but as a citizen and as a native Mississippian we have started to spend too much money and economic development we've diverted too much money of course tax dollars into pilot when you live in the second most violent city in the nation which is massive aside from what happened to Mr Floyd which was working near active and there is money it's just a matter of prioritization we are not a bank we are a D. that the citizens pay their hard earned tax dollars which I am one of and we deserve to have a better amenities better core services and not necessarily spend all our money to make the rich richer well let me ask you something that might be a little tougher than than just money if I might put it as that well Kerr twenty eighteen there were reports that maybe the Tennessee bureau of investigation should be the responsible party for investigating officer related shootings officer involved shootings in Shelby County which is in Memphis would you advise your members not to submit to interviews in and give statements to the union right what a good deal everybody thinks that because you're a police officer you want to separate me from being a Christian everybody's entitled to their Fifth Amendment rights just because I'm a police officer don't necessarily mean that I give up my constitutional right and we encourage officers to give statement but if you're going to compare all day on the guild's statement and they should be covered by what we call god I can't even think of the name now well was that after I did give me a chance to follow up anyway recognizing that their citizens in every US citizen is entitled to right right not even close off incriminate yes exactly but what about the idea that of course police officers are also public servants who by the way are entrusted with sometimes lethal force and and that they ought to submit themselves for interviews the responsible parties as soon as possible in the public interest sure well that's not a problem but also you know just as any one of this country I love this country and what this country is built on no one everybody's innocent until proven guilty number two everybody is entitled to representation you know you try to paint not necessarily you but they're individuals I try to paint unions this organization we don't set policy so when they talk about reform and all that well we don't the city of Memphis state Tennessee legislator legislation base that policy we don't we just abide by the policies that they sent for now only just like any other organization that has the ability to say that we like this or don't like that but that still doesn't determine what policies are going to be set so you know I think that there's a bigger agenda at play when it comes to unions across this country everybody's represented yeah let me ask and we just got half an hour left we went about the forty eight hour waiting period before an officer accused of misconduct can be interviewed about it would you be willing to give that up in collective bargaining no because just like with anything everybody's traumatized when they go through a dramatic situation I'm a combat veteran and I definitely understand post about express disorder also understand so therefore when you start coming at an individual right after something happens you know it's just like a citizen our system has the ability to either talk or not talk and that's something that everyone continues to try to take away from of police officers that I don't think that that's right Michael Williams of the Memphis police unit thanks so much for being with us you're welcome

It's breaking down the games. It's awesome. It's big show. All right, Gregg. It is finally here real football, regular season. Football will have you every week here on Thursdays breaking down, not only the Thursday night football game, but the biggest games of the weekend because you're already doing that in prepping for that for the unbelievable show. You have the NFL matchup show on ESPN and of course the great work you do for NFL films as well. Let's start with the Thursday night or Greg eagles falcons. What are you most intrigued about in this matchup. Oh, that I'm actually intrigued with how the falcons choose to play offense with their personnel. For this reason, Nigel Brad will not play in this game, and it would seem to me that the falcons would wanna stay with base personnel quite a bit which they do. They do often play with two tight. They do play with a fullback, but I think they would want the eagles linebackers assuming the eagles play with three linebackers. They may decide to go big nickel and play Graham, the safety almost as a linebacker or Jenkins can do that as well. But I think you wanna put the eagles in that situation Ross and then line up with a lot of base personnel. Obviously, they won't do that on third nine, but I think you wanna see how the eagles are going to handle that with nine zero, Brad out of the game because the only real starting linebacker they will have out there is Jordan Hicks, their middle linebacker, and he's coming off. I believe in Killys injury. Yeah, I was gonna ask you out of the guys other than once al-shabaab Jeffrey and TIMMY Jernigan as well as Nigel, Brad, which guy hurts him the most. And it sounds like you you think it might be Brad them? I think it could be yes. The other intriguing element to this game is just what you mentioned with the eagles missing Jeffrey and MAC Hollins who will be out as well. I think that you'll see a lot of two tight end sets, and I think the rookie Dallas guttered we'll get significant snaps in this game. So that's the on that side of the ball. That's the the other element that intrigues me in this game. Totally agree. You know, Greg eagles fans are very nervous about Nick foles and the fact that he's not played well in the preseason. Do you have a read on that? I mean, he has had a history in his career of being up and down guy, a major history. There's a very wide variance in his play. I think he needs to be schemed. I think the eagles did such a good job with that and in the playoffs last year. And I think you'll see a lot of that. They'll be a major chess match. Going on here, don't forget. Teams of now had an off season all teams, but certainly the falcons have had an off season to figure out how better to defend run, pass option concepts. And I know the eagles are trying to expand those concepts as well. So I think that that's a critical dimension to this game.
