After The Brew: Michelle Obama, A Flat Tire in Fishers & Fighting Insurance for a CGM

Darren opens up about the ongoing disrespect toward the Obama family — and gets straight to the point. Michelle Obama is one of the classiest First Ladies this country has ever had, and the obsession white supremacy has with tearing the Obamas down says everything about them and nothing about her. He doesn't mince words.Then he gets into the weekend. A flat tire in Fishers during a rainstorm — a screwdriver that flew into the tire, a slow PSI drop on the highway, a detour through Geist, and making it just barely to his aunt's house before it went completely flat. The silver lining: he used that time to sit down with family and get intel on his grandfather — research he's been meaning to do since Memorial Day for an upcoming article. His back and sides are paying for helping change that tire. He's wiped. He's forcing his voice through this episode. And he's currently building a case to get insurance to cover a continuous glucose monitor. A lot happening behind the scenes — and this is what it actually looks like.After The Brew, Darren Watts, Afternoon Coffee Break, Michelle Obama, Obama family, white supremacy, First Lady, flat tire, Fishers Indiana, Indianapolis, Geist, CGM, continuous glucose monitor, insurance battle, diabetes, back pain, grandfather, family history, independent journalism, behind the scenes, real talk, Black podcast, June 2026, no script, wiped out, long COVID, doing it anyway,
