  Episode 169: "Troubled" Youth

  Aug 16, 202659 min

  This week on The Black Men Think Podcast, Corey and JD hold it down and cover everything from everyday frustrations to conversations that hit much closer to home. The episode starts with a debate about food delivery services like DoorDash and Uber Eats and just how much we trust the cleanliness of the people handling our food. From there, things take a serious turn as we discuss a recent school shooting near our hometown, the 14-year-old accused in the case being charged as an adult, and the complicated emotions that come with deciding how young people should be held accountable for serious crimes. We lighten things up with some Atlanta Falcons talk and expectations for the upcoming season before closing with a powerful Ask A Black Man call. Our caller wants to know how to begin repairing his relationship with his father. Now that he has children of his own, he's struggling even more with the way he was treated growing up because he can't imagine treating his own children the same way. That leads us into a conversation about fatherhood, forgiveness, childhood wounds, and whether becoming a parent can sometimes make it harder to understand the choices our own parents made.

  Episode 168: Balancing Entrepreneurship

  Aug 9, 20261h 5m

  This week on The Black Men Think Podcast, we sit down with Walt of Holmes Hydration, a longtime supporter of the show who was in Atlanta for Invest Fest. What started as an opportunity to finally connect in person turned into a real conversation about the different roles Black men are expected to balance. We talk about entrepreneurship, marriage, fatherhood, and the challenge of building something for yourself while still being present for the people who depend on you. Walt shares his perspective on growing a business, managing his responsibilities at home, and figuring out what balance actually looks like when life is pulling you in multiple directions. It’s a conversation about ambition, family, sacrifice, and learning how to pursue your goals without losing sight of why you’re working so hard in the first place.

  Episode 167: Can You Really Balance It All?

  Jul 27, 20261h 16m

  This week on The Black Men Think Podcast, we’re joined by rapper, educator, activist, husband, and father Marcel P. Black for a conversation about what it really takes to build a sustainable career without losing yourself in the process. We discuss the realities of today’s music industry, why most artists are either local legends or global superstars, and how understanding your audience is more valuable than chasing viral moments. Marcel also shares why following your data, identifying your customer, and creating meaningful connections are essential to long-term success. Beyond music, the conversation shifts to finding balance between career, family, and purpose. Marcel reflects on fatherhood, the importance of protecting time with loved ones, and why some accomplishments are meant to fulfill you rather than impress everyone else. Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or someone working to build something meaningful, this episode is full of practical insight and timeless perspective. 00:00 Intro 02:00 Homeboy Check-In 07:22 Is Today's Music Industry Either Local or Superstar? 20:01 Exploitation in the Music Industry 28:02 Why Every Artist Needs to Know Their Customer 36:45 Following Your Data to Find Real Fans 39:36 Finding Balance Between Career and Life 46:58 Why Family Has to Come First 59:59 Your Accomplishments Are for You 1:15:52 Outro Join the conversation Leave a voicemail: 404-939-6477 Support the pod and get exclusive episodes on Patreon: www.patreon.com/blackmenthink

  Episode 166: You Don't Know Yourself

  Jul 12, 202652 min

  In this episode of The Black Men Think Podcast, the fellas kick things off with a Homeboy Check-In before diving into the realities of adulthood and the importance of structure. We discuss how routines, discipline, and organization affect our personal lives, careers, and relationships, and why many of us struggle to find the right balance. The conversation naturally evolves into how living with another person exposes your habits, quirks, and blind spots, leading to a discussion on why opposites often attract and how couples learn to navigate their differences. In this week’s Ask A Black Man segment, we answer a listener’s question: How do you get to the next level in your career when you feel stuck? We share our perspectives on growth, patience, and what it takes to move forward when progress feels slow. Whether you’re working on your career, your relationships, or simply trying to become a better version of yourself, this episode is full of practical conversation and honest reflection. 👇 Join the conversation 📞 Leave a voicemail: 404-939-6477 🎧 Support the pod and get exclusive episodes on Patreon: www.patreon.com/blackmenthink
