We realize here that most of the decisions we make in life are made from feelings and emotions rather than logic, reason, rational and intelect. At times we make life decisions based on how we feel at the moment said situations arise. We give little thought to how these decisions will affect us later on in the future. We seek instant gratification. Furthermore, we are seeking to build character with the guest that come on from time to time. Character starts with feelings and emotions. The way we feel often dictates the way we think, which then dictates the way we speak, which then dictates the way we act, which then dictates the way we behave (creating habits) which ultimately produces the character we as individuals create or become. With all of that being said, our focus here primarily is on the feelings and the emotional quotient of our guest as opposed to their intelectual quotient. Hopefully after 1 year of running this podcast we will see a positive change in each and every one of our guests lives.Yeshttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/episode-29-economic-awareness-101https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48926537Wed, 02 Mar 2022 19:19:39 +0000Economic Awareness 1013616cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/drug-use-vs-drug-abuse-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759404Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:12:29 +0000Economic Awareness 101901cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/unity-in-the-community-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759402Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:12:13 +0000Economic Awareness 101901cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/job-vs-career-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759401Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:12:05 +0000Economic Awareness 101883cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/comic-com-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759399Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:12:00 +0000Economic Awareness 101901cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/overdose-prevention-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759398Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:11:55 +0000Economic Awareness 101901cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/domestic-violence-popeye-and-tearzhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759396Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:11:47 +0000Economic Awareness 101901cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/natty-goose-part-1https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759317Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:04:19 +0000Economic Awareness 1012479cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/natty-goose_1https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759294Thu, 10 Feb 2022 17:27:58 +0000Economic Awareness 101He On His Sh*t Yo3367cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101He On His Sh*t YoNohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/muhammad-jollah-podcast_1https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48759295Thu, 10 Feb 2022 17:27:29 +0000Economic Awareness 101BKP doing the thing3806cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101BKP doing the thingNohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/economic-awareness-101https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48341163Tue, 18 Jan 2022 02:32:30 +0000Economic Awareness 1011101cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/j-b-shooting-the-breezehttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/47980817Sun, 19 Dec 2021 03:11:47 +0000Economic Awareness 101Part 12270cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Part 1Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/michael-and-rashawnhttps://api.spreaker.com/episode/47873062Fri, 10 Dec 2021 20:11:15 +0000Economic Awareness 101Part 11747cleanfullEconomic Awareness 101Part 1Nohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/15410940/michael-doldron_1
In this episode we sit with Michael again just to talk about various random topics. MIchael expressed concerned about water and air quality so we stared off with talking about the Department of Enviornmental Protection (D.E.P.) a NYC agency that is responsible for the care of these elements. We went into discussing different reasons that people neglect attending NYC beaches. MIchael attemps to explain why the ocean water in NYC beaches are green as opposed to the clear blue water you see when you visit other areas and islands. We talked about Mayor DeBlasio's future plans for the city as it pertained to natural disaster emergency fund relief. We also got into the Aquaduct project currently in progress and how it would potentially change the quality of the water for the nearby residents of the city. When discussing air quality and the air pollution here in the city Michael talked about the evolution of technology where though we will never really stop using gas cars, we are moving in a geeral direction from gas cars to electric cars which is better on the air. We tackled the topic of what it means to live in the center of a food desert. We know that not having access to affordable or quality fresh food. As we approached the end of the conversation we started discussing potential solutions that we as a people can work on everyday that can help us end the hunger and disease that plagues various urban communities where fresh food and drink is scarce. Listen up to this podcast if you are interested in conversations like this where we discuss not only the problems in our communities but we always speak solution orientation and implementation as well.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/47711873Mon, 29 Nov 2021 23:09:06 +0000Economic Awareness 101Shooting the Breeze (part 1) In this episode we sit with Michael again just to talk about various random topics.

We started off by talking about Dr. Umar Johnson and his stance on helping out the black community being a pro black nationalist, via building an academy for young black children. T.J. talks about the additives to our foods and how it causes certain learning diabilities in young black kids. We also discussed IEP's with young black chidlren and how it affects the child's life. He also went on to note his stance on ALL LIVES MATTER. Secondly we stared talking about self sufficiency. T.J. stated that the solution to being self sufficient in our community is to rely on one another and become completely independent of the system. He also noted the key to recruiting young people directly off of the streets where most of the dangers lie and potential for their lives to go in the wrong direction. Citing and encouraging young people's talent is also key in steering them in the right direction. We also touced on the basis of being able to grow our own food. We also touched on the mentality of the community as a whole as it pertains to being a large percentage of the consumers here in America yet we make up a very minute percentage of the producers here. The shaping and changing of the mentality is crucial in the battle to overcome the system of poverty that keeps communities of people opressed.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/47676684Sat, 27 Nov 2021 05:15:26 +0000Economic Awareness 101Shooting the Breeze (part 1) with T.J.

The one and only fabulous Michael came on to the show to discuss gang violence with us. He cites that the lack of proper structure within the homes of young people is one of the biggest reasons that young people turn to gangs for membership. We discussed situations such as guns being placed in a minor's hand to do the deed for a senior member of the gang so that should they get caught the consequences are a lot less dire to a child than that of a full grown adult. We also talked about gang membership being inherited by certain members, meaning they really never had a choice to join or deny membership; it was a birth right given to them. Next, we touched on the origin of gangs in black communities which wew all about exercising our 2nd amendment right to bear arms and protect and serve our own communities. MIchael stated that funding your elected officials campaigns is a good way to fight the issues that come along with street violence. Peer pressure was also brought up to see how these two topics can go hand in hand, and how it can be detrimental to changing the directions in which the communities in need are heading. Some young people are joining gangs despite the fact that it is not a necessity to them. Parents not giving consequences for children's behaviors seem to be another reason that people join gangs, hence that lack of positive structure in the homes. Love is a huge component missing in young peole's lives which leads them to the streets and the dangers that lie there within.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/47412259Wed, 10 Nov 2021 18:31:31 +0000Economic Awareness 101Gang Violence The one and only fabulous Michael came on to the show to discuss gang violence with us.
