  • Open Mike Podcast Episode #34
    Feb 14 2026

    This episode gets real.

    We dive into the good, the bad, and the complicated sides of the internet’s creation — how it’s transformed communication, opportunity, and connection… while also opening the door to new dangers and unintended consequences.

    We unpack:

    • The rise of online gaming — community, addiction, and digital identity

    • The challenges of keeping kids safe in an always-connected world

    • The responsibility of parents, platforms, and policy

    Then we turn to the recent developments surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and the broader questions they raise about power, accountability, and the role the internet plays in exposing (or concealing) truth.

    It’s an honest conversation about technology, culture, protection, and responsibility in the digital age.

    No scripts. No filters.
    Just real dialogue.

    It’s real. It’s raw. It’s Open Mike.

  • Open Mike Podcast Episode #33
    Feb 8 2026

    This episode dives into the recent injustices making headlines and the deeper issues behind them. We talk about accountability, empathy, and why calling out wrongdoing shouldn’t depend on political affiliation, identity, or which “side” someone is on.

    This conversation challenges the idea of selective outrage and asks what it really looks like to stand for justice in a divided nation. We discuss the responsibility we all share to speak up, listen, and hold each other to the same standard — especially when it’s uncomfortable.

    This episode isn’t about blame. It’s about honesty, consistency, and finding a way forward together.
