    Black Is Normal: Owning Power and Building Wealth with Venture Capitalist Khadijah Robinson

    In this episode, I sat down with Khadijah Robinson, and I’m going to be honest with you—this conversation challenged me. Khadijah is not moving off some perfectly mapped-out plan. She is moving when the moment calls for it. She went from law to entrepreneurship to exiting companies to now building a venture fund backed by Black investors. No straight line. No guarantees. Just conviction and movement. That’s where most of us get stuck. We want certainty before we act. The truth is, the next level of your life is not waiting on your plan. It’s waiting on your decision to move. We also got into something I wrestle with—ambition versus presence. When you’re wired like we are, you convince yourself that grinding now earns you freedom later. What I heard in her story, and what I see in myself, is that if you don’t learn how to show up for people now, you won’t suddenly become that man later. You’re just rehearsing neglect at a higher level. We talked about wealth, and I’m going to keep it direct. If you are not in ownership, you are on the outside. Venture capital is one of the clearest paths to exponential wealth, yet most of us don’t even know how to access it. That’s not an accident. That’s exposure and network. Khadijah is building a fund that brings us into rooms we were never invited into. That matters. Then she said something that shifted the whole conversation. Her revolution is not about proving anything. Black is normal. That means no performing. No code-switching for validation. No measuring yourself against someone else’s standard. You get to exist, build, and win from your own center. Here’s what I want you to sit with—opportunities are showing up every day. Deals, relationships, rooms, capital. The question is simple: are you positioned to move when it’s your turn?

    "How to Lose" with Author and Entrepreneur Reggie Prevail

    went into this conversation thinking we were going to talk about success. Instead, I got punched in the gut. I sat down with Reggie Prevail—a 30-year-old entrepreneur, investor, and builder—and what he laid out forced me to confront something I didn’t want to admit: I had been moving too fast, doing too much, and in some areas… pretending. Pretending I wasn’t afraid. Pretending I had it all handled. Pretending I didn’t need to slow down. And the truth is, that pretending comes with a cost. We don’t talk enough about losing—especially as Black men. We’re taught to win, to dominate, to push through. But nobody teaches us how to lose the right things: ego, fear, perfectionism, control, and even people. Reggie flipped the script for me. He said, “Win or win.” Not win or lose—win or win. Because if you know how to use your losses, you never actually lose. That hit me. It made me think about my own life—my health scares, my relationships, my work. The moments where I avoided the truth because I didn’t want to face what might come with it. The times I held onto people longer than I should have. The times I tried to do everything myself instead of building the team that would actually help me scale. That’s not strength. That’s fear dressed up as control. And here’s what I know now: The revolution for many of us isn’t about doing more. It’s about letting go of the things that are quietly holding us back. Letting go of the ego that keeps us out of rooms. Letting go of the fear that keeps us from the doctor’s office. Letting go of the mindset that says we have to figure it all out alone. And maybe the hardest one… Letting go of the people and versions of ourselves that no longer serve where we’re going. Reggie also broke down something that most people aren’t paying attention to: while everyone is chasing tech and AI, real wealth is quietly shifting into places we’ve overlooked—blue-collar businesses, ownership, systems, and control. That’s a different kind of game. And most folks aren’t even on the field. So here’s the question I’m sitting with—and I want you to sit with it too: What do you need to lose… so you can finally win? Because if you don’t answer that honestly, you’ll keep building a life that looks successful on the outside—but feels incomplete on the inside. And I’m not interested in that kind of success anymore. I’m interested in building a life that’s real, aligned, and fully mine. That’s my revolution.

    The Dark Season That Built Me with Weight Loss Influencer Robert "Brix" Glover

    This episode hit different. I sat down with Robert Brix Glover, and what started as a conversation turned into a mirror—one that forced both of us to confront the parts of ourselves we don’t always want to see. We talked about something most men—especially Black men—don’t talk about enough: those dark seasons. Not the highlight reel. Not the transformation photos. But the in-between… the moments where you’re lost, disconnected, and barely holding it together. Brix named it what it is—a “dark night of the soul.” And as he spoke, I realized I’ve been there too… and if I’m honest, parts of me are still walking through it. What struck me most is this: Success can become a distraction from your healing. Brix went from 360 pounds to a physique that turns heads everywhere he goes. Built a following. Built a brand. Built a life that looks like success. But underneath it all, the work hadn’t been done yet. And eventually… life circles back. That’s the part nobody tells you. We also got real about coping. For him, it was food. For others, it might be women, work, money, ego—pick your poison. But at the root, it’s the same thing: avoiding what’s inside. And here’s where I need you to lean in… Healing is not optional if you want to lead at a high level. You can’t build a business, a relationship, or a legacy on top of unprocessed trauma. It will show up—every time. We also talked about something I’ve been wrestling with myself: playing small. Even when people are telling you you’re making an impact. Even when the evidence is there. There’s still that voice that says, “Who are you to be that big?” That’s not humility—that’s fear dressed up as humility. And if you’re not careful, you’ll cap your own growth while telling yourself you’re being grounded. Let me be clear: Playing small is a disservice—not just to you, but to everybody you’re called to impact. We closed on something practical, something you can actually do: Create space daily to sit with yourself. Not distractions. Not noise. Not movement. Just you… and your thoughts. Because if you don’t understand your inner world, it will run your outer world.

    Dr. Aisha Nyandoro on Radical Imagination and the Courage to Dream Again

    In this episode, I sit down with my friend Dr. Aisha Nyandoro, president and CEO of Springboard to Opportunities, for a conversation that is really about more than policy, nonprofit leadership, or guaranteed income. This is a conversation about vision, courage, community, and what it means to protect your joy in chaotic times. Aisha breaks down the revolutionary work behind the Magnolia Mother’s Trust, the groundbreaking program that gives Black mothers living in poverty $1,000 a month with no strings attached. But what moved me most was not just the money. It was what the money made possible. It gives women room to breathe. It gives families a little peace. And maybe most importantly, it gives people permission to dream again. What Aisha makes plain in this conversation is that poverty does more than drain a bank account. It can rob people of imagination. It can make survival feel like the only option. And when that happens, revolution gets buried under stress, scarcity, and exhaustion. Her work is about disrupting that cycle and restoring agency, dignity, and possibility to Black women and their families. We also delve deeper into Aisha’s leadership journey, from her roots in Jackson, Mississippi, to her emergence as a national voice on guaranteed income and justice. She talks honestly about balancing ego and service, staying grounded while receiving major recognition, and ensuring the movement remains centered on the people most impacted. That part matters. Too many leaders get caught up in being seen. Aisha reminds us that real leadership is about being a vessel, not the story. For me, this episode is also a masterclass in what revolutionary leadership looks like. It looks like listening. It looks like a trusting community. It looks like planting seeds for a future you may never personally sit under. And it looks like holding on to radical imagination when the world is doing everything it can to make you small, fearful, and defeated. This episode challenges all of us to ask a harder question: are we building lives rooted in fear and scarcity, or are we bold enough to dream beyond what the world told us was possible? Aisha’s answer is clear. Her revolution is making so-called radical ideas part of everyday life. And after this conversation, I think all of us have to ask ourselves what it would look like to do the same.

    Nine Years of Revolution: Dr. Charles Corprew and Dr. Travis Batts on Freedom, Health, Love, and Legacy

    In this special live anniversary episode of What’s Your Revolution?, Dr. Charles Corprew sits down with one of his favorite returning guests, Dr. Travis Batts, to celebrate nine years of the show, the movement it has become, and the question that continues to shape its purpose: What’s your revolution? This conversation goes far beyond small talk. Together, Dr. Charles and Dr. Batts dig into what freedom really looks like for Black men in midlife — freedom in health, freedom in relationships, freedom in money, freedom in mindset, and freedom from the quiet burdens too many men carry alone. With humor, honesty, and sharp insight, they explore what it means to stop living on autopilot and start making intentional choices about life, legacy, and personal growth. The episode takes a particularly important turn as they discuss men’s health, cardiovascular risk, prevention, and the emotional barriers that keep so many men from seeking help. Dr. Charles shares parts of his own health journey, while Dr. Batts offers practical wisdom and a powerful framework for change: Question. Conversation. Action. Their message is clear — too many men are suffering in silence, and that silence is costing them far too much. The conversation also moves into love, relationships, and the lessons that come with age, loss, and self-reflection. Dr. Charles speaks candidly about boundaries, loneliness, urgency, and the danger of losing oneself while searching for partnership. The result is a deeply human exchange about what it takes to build a life rooted in peace, self-awareness, and real freedom. Warm, funny, thoughtful, and deeply personal, this episode is more than a celebration. It is an invitation for listeners to ask bigger questions, confront the areas of life where they feel stuck, and embrace the kind of cataclysmic change that leads to true transformation. Because every goal needs a revolution. And every revolution needs a revolutionary.

    Excellence, No Excuses: Longevity, Leadership, and the Legacy of Black Men Excel

    Family, this episode is one I’ve been waiting to share with you. I sit down with my friend, mentor, and living legend, Alfred Edmond Jr.—Senior VP and Executive Editor at Black Enterprise—to talk about what it truly means to live a life of excellence, no excuses. Alfred just turned 65, and he’s training like a pro bodybuilder while still leading with vision at one of our most iconic institutions. We talk about health as wealth, not just six-pack abs but the kind of longevity that lets us thrive well into our 70s, 80s, and beyond. Alfred lays it down plain: our most productive years—financially, spiritually, and relationally—come after 50, but only if we’re healthy enough to claim them. We also dive into his journey at Black Enterprise, from his days covering fashion to creating BE Modern Man and helping architect Black Men Excel. If you’ve ever wondered why spaces like Excel matter, this conversation explains it. Alfred reminds us that too often the world only sees us as athletes, entertainers, or problems to be solved. Excel exists to tear off that veil of invisibility and show the world that Black men are leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, and culture-shapers. What I loved most in this dialogue is how Alfred connects health, leadership, and legacy. He talks about why leaders must stay curious, why culture is everything, and why the willingness to evolve matters more than any credential. And he gives game on entrepreneurship—how investors bet on the jockey, not just the horse, and why resilience is the key to thriving when business plans pivot or fail. Brothers, this is about more than bodybuilding or boardrooms—it’s about building a life that lasts. A life rooted in health, love, and excellence without excuses. Alfred’s story is a blueprint for how we can show up fully for our families, our businesses, and our communities. This episode is an act of love, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.

    Mutual Provision Is Sexy: Men's Health, Real Love & Emotional Evolution

    Revolutionaries, this one right here is for the grown folks, those of us who’ve failed, evolved, and finally figured out what we really want from our lives, our partners, and ourselves. In this deeply personal and powerful season finale, I sit down with my dear brother, Dr. Travis Batts, retired Air Force cardiologist, podcaster, and longtime friend,to talk about something we don’t discuss enough: what it truly means for men to feel safe, be vulnerable, and be loved. This episode is about emotional maturity. It’s about learning how to lay down the armor, cuddle without guilt, and demand the kind of love that gives back, what I call “mutual provision.” We talk relationships, self-care, men’s health, and why too many of us are failing at love because we haven’t done the work on ourselves. I even get real about my dating “research” over the last ten years, and how it taught me to stop choosing partners who didn’t want to build a soft life with me. We also hit hard on the urgency of men’s health, physical, emotional, and spiritual. Travis shares insights from his Iron Therapy podcast and a forthcoming health checklist for brothers across every age group. And we don’t stop there, we hold space for our LGBTQIA+ family too, because true revolution demands that we see everyone’s humanity. If you’re not willing to speak up for others, you’re not really doing the work. This episode is a love letter to growth, partnership, and emotional evolution. You might laugh, you might cry, but most of all, I hope you reflect. Because revolution isn’t always loud, it’s often the quiet, daily act of becoming the healthiest, most loving version of yourself. Let’s revolt and evolve, y’all. I’ll see you next season. —Dr. Charles Corprew

    The Cheat Code Is You: How Self-Awareness & Purpose Fuel the Revolution

    Revolutionaries, this episode right here? It’s not just a celebration of 8 years of the What’s Your Revolution? Show—it’s a masterclass in energy, excellence, and evolution. I had the honor of sitting down with Dr. Daphne Watkins, a powerhouse scholar, executive coach, founder, and truth-teller who has spent the last two decades centering the mental health and well-being of Black men and boys. From the jump, Daphne and I clicked, reflecting on the grind behind podcasting, the beauty of AI when used with purpose, and the deep work it takes to really know yourself. And that became the heartbeat of our convo: self-awareness is the cheat code. Not just for leadership, but for life. We talk about the moment you realize your relationships—whether personal or professional—are rooted in unhealed trauma. We explore what it means to pivot when you’ve evolved past your surroundings, and how hard, yet necessary, it is to release people who no longer align with your growth. Daphne reminds us that doing the internal work isn't just about healing; it’s about becoming the most powerful version of yourself so you can serve others without losing yourself. We get into her life’s work—amplifying Black men’s voices, disrupting harmful narratives about masculinity, and building systems that honor our brilliance instead of trying to fix what was never broken. And fellas, she keeps it all the way real: you can’t lead, love, or liberate if you haven’t first taken care of yourself. This episode is a mirror, a moment, and a movement. It's for my brothers who are tired of performing and ready to transform. For the men who are still figuring it out but know there’s something greater inside them. And, for everyone who believes that men can be both soft and strong, healed and still healing, powerful and at peace. We’re 8 years in, and I’m just getting started. Let’s keep evolving—together. So I’ll ask you again, What’s Your Revolution?

    "Mastering Your Mindset: Overcoming Burnout and Finding Balance" with Dr. Nekeshia Hammond

    What's good, Revolutionaries? On this impactful episode, I had the honor of connecting with Dr. Nekeshia Hammond, psychologist, executive coach, international speaker, and author of the powerful new book, Mindset Training: Conquer Your Mind and the Rest Will Follow. We delved into the critical topic of burnout—that persistent feeling of exhaustion, stress, and imbalance that affects our performance at work, relationships at home, and overall well-being. Dr. Hammond shared profound insights on recognizing burnout signs physically, mentally, and emotionally, and emphasized the necessity of regular self-check-ins. She provided clear, practical advice on incorporating daily moments of intentional breathing, spiritual grounding, and the importance of establishing firm personal boundaries. Additionally, we discussed the overlooked impact of people-pleasing and highlighted why finding a culturally competent therapist is crucial for meaningful mental health care. This episode is essential listening for anyone dedicated to personal growth, leadership, and resilience. Remember, burnout isn't a personal failing—it's an invitation to transform and thrive. Tune in to discover how to reclaim your well-being and live a balanced, purposeful life.

    The Power of Asking Bigger Questions: Revolutionizing Wealth, Tech, and Impact with Ty Smith

    Revolutionaries, this one hit different. I sat down with my brother Ty Smith, and what unfolded was not just a conversation—but a masterclass in curiosity, presence, and rethinking what we’ve been taught to value. Ty, an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Bowie State and a brilliant connector in the innovation space, is someone who’s spent his life asking better questions—and encouraging us to do the same. We talked about the unexpected blessings that come with transition—Ty recently parted ways with his role at the Common Mission Project—and how he’s using this time to take care of his aging parents and redefine his purpose now that he’s an empty-Nester. At 57, he’s leaning into this next season with clarity, intention, and a deep desire to spend time on what matters most. Sound familiar? We dove into the difference between brainstorming and question storming—a practice that opens up our thinking and forces us to interrogate the assumptions behind our goals. Ty said it best: “Certainty is overrated. Revolutionaries attack certainty.” That line sat in my chest. When we cling too hard to what’s comfortable, we kill our ability to learn, to evolve, to grow. We also explored the intersection of AI, Black tech, and education—and how we must stop chasing just generational wealth and start focusing on generational impact. Wealth is a pillar, no doubt. But what about our health? Our emotional wellness? Our communities? Our stories? Our policy? If we’re going to build a better future for our kids and grand kids, it’s gotta be holistic. And revolutionary. This episode is for any Black man who’s felt the shift coming. Who’s ready to stop living someone else’s story. Who’s done chasing certainty and instead wants to sit still, ask the right questions, and design a life—and a legacy—that actually pays. As always, I love you. I love you. I love you.

    Bridging the Gap: Finding Community, Play, and Purpose with Mark Berger

    What’s good, Revolutionaries? In this special episode, I sit down with my brother, my guy, and my New Orleans kinfolk—none other than Mark Berger, the fitness heartbeat of New Orleans. Mark isn’t just a fitness and wellness expert; he’s a force for connection, healing, and community. From the yoga mat to the pickleball court, from mental wellness to the power of play, Mark’s life is a masterclass in building bridges—between people, between ideas, and most importantly, within ourselves. We dive deep into what it truly means to be a bridge in today’s world—how we create meaningful relationships, how we push past fear and discomfort, and how play (yes, play!) can be a revolutionary act. We explore why men—especially Black men—need spaces to connect, move, and heal, and how growth, introspection, and spirituality are crucial to living a fulfilled life. And yeah, we get real about dating, partnership, and what it means to find someone who truly sees you. This episode is raw, real, and full of the wisdom you didn’t know you needed. If you’ve ever wondered how to elevate your mind, body, and spirit—or just how to find your people—this one’s for you. Revolutionaries, ask yourself: How are you being a bridge in your own life?

    To New Orleans with Love: Brotherhood and Legacy Building with Omega Psi Phi 3rd D Rep Shawn Lacey

    In this powerful and reflective episode of the "What's Your Revolution?" show, host Dr. Charles Corprew invites the Honorable Shawn R. Lacey, the Third District Representative of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, to discuss the enduring legacy and impact of Omega men on their communities. Recorded as a special Founder's Day episode, this conversation navigates the deep ties of fraternity, leadership, and the essence of uplifting Black men in America. Dr. Corprew and Brother Lacey take listeners on an emotional journey through their shared love for New Orleans, highlighting the city's unique culture and the profound influence it has on its people. Brother Lacey’s stories of leadership and perseverance resonate deeply, emphasizing how the values instilled by Omega Psi Phi’s founders continue to guide modern-day leaders. For listeners unfamiliar with Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, it was founded on November 17, 1911, at Howard University in Washington, D.C. by three undergraduates – Edgar Amos Love, Oscar James Cooper, and Frank Coleman – along with their faculty advisor, Dr. Ernest Everett Just. These visionaries sought to build a brotherhood rooted in the principles of manhood, scholarship, perseverance, and uplift. Omega Psi Phi was the first international fraternal organization founded on the campus of a historically Black college. Over the past century and change, the fraternity has cultivated a legacy of service, leadership, and activism, producing some of the most influential figures in the world. The episode delves into bridging generational gaps, fostering unity, and redefining leadership for the next era. With personal anecdotes, laughter, and heartfelt discussions, the two illuminate what it means to embody true manhood, scholarship, perseverance, and uplift. Whether reminiscing about pivotal moments in their upbringing or challenging contemporary narratives, this episode serves as a testament to the power of mentorship, brotherhood, and collective responsibility. Listeners are called to reflect on their own roles as leaders and change makers. This episode is a tribute to the revolutionary spirit that not only built Omega Psi Phi but continues to inspire generations to uphold and expand its mission. Dr. Corprew’s parting words, “Nothing great in life happens without a revolution,” echo as an enduring reminder that the legacy of humanity is only as strong as those committed to carrying it forward.

    Father to Son with Rockstar Mortician Frank Walton

    My dear friend and fraternity brother Frank Walton, CEO of Walton Funeral Home, joins me on the show to talk about fatherhood, but more importantly, about generational wealth and generation legacy. We also discuss how to protect our legacies from the infrastructures attempting to take them away. Takeaways: * Fatherhood is a special and rewarding experience that shapes a person's life. * The values and lessons instilled by fathers have a lasting impact on their children. *Creating generational wealth involves passing down businesses and assets to future generations. *Hard work and perseverance are key to building a successful business and achieving financial stability. *Building a generational legacy and wealth requires hard work, dedication, and long-term relationships with customers. *Small businesses, especially those owned by marginalized communities, face threats to their generational wealth, such as land loss due to infrastructure projects. *Protecting and fighting for generational legacies is crucial to preserving the hard work and achievements of previous generations. *The power imbalance between small businesses and large entities can make it challenging to protect generational wealth.

    Keeping the Faith with ACE CEO Marcus Harden

    I met Marcus in early 2019 and he changed my life. It was my first season at Camelback Ventures, and I was drinking from a fire hose while l learned my new role. Marcus was one of the founders we invested in during that cycle. His revolution resonated with me because he was building a school for our most precious demographic, Black boys. Little did I know, I was changing his life too. With a negative balance in his checking account and only faith in his hand, the call one day in January to let him know he had been accepted into the fellowship proved that prayer, faith, and work can do wonders. Marcus's leadership during the fellowship and our most chaotic periods moved me, gave me resolve, and pushed all of us forward. This riveting and thoughtful conversation highlights the journey of a father, mentor, educator, and philanthropist who has given his life to uplifting the world. His revolution - to love unconditionally - is a road map for us all.

    From Bald To Bold with Skincare CEO Kene Onuorah

    What's good Revolutionaries?! "So, I'm out here and my revolution is to help guys, like you mentioned earlier, embrace their natural evolution, right? Be who you are, and be authentic in doing so, because I believe life is so much easier to live when you're being authentic, and you have a much powerful, much more powerful story when you're authentic. And that's been my superpower all my life, my authentic, being authentic." My guest, Kene Onuorahm, is the founder and CEO of Comme Homme, a health and skincare brand for men and the people who love them as men embark on a journey to embrace the power of their baldness. I met Kene at the illustrious Black Venture Summit put on by W.E Build Tulsa and rockstar thought leader and entrepreneur Ashli Simms. Kene’s journey to baldness was unlike mine. One day I shaved my head, received positive affirmations, and kept it moving. However, for other men, hair loss can be quite traumatic. There is anxiety, shame, and embarrassment. What can we do? We must figure out how to embrace the change. Kene discovered that men need products to help them embrace this change, so Kene created "Comme Homme" - with the understanding that men need to come home, embrace their baldness. Kene's podcast, “Bald to Bold,” is an opportunity for men to talk about their journey to embracing baldness AND boldness. It is a much-needed conversation! To get his products, make sure you go to CommeHomme.com. Revolutionaries make sure you go support this brother!

    Revolt and Evolve (the Power of Forgiveness) with Dr. Charles and Dr. Travis

    What's Good Revolutionaries? "I don't know if I've ever told this story on the show, Dr. Batts and I, you know, I figured it was, it was time. It was time for me to tell this story of my journey, my journey of getting to a better version of myself. And, you know, in 2015, I was, you know, I broke up with my ex-fiance who I think is one of the greatest humans on earth in January of 2015. And I didn't care about anybody. I mean, when I say that, I didn't care about anybody but myself. Literally, literally nobody. And I did things that represented my sole care for my pleasure, right? And my sole understanding that life revolved around me. And I didn't care about anybody else. I didn't care about my friends. I didn't care about the people that I was with. I cared about myself. And I did things that I regret. I did things back then, this version of me looks back and says, you know what, mm-mm, nah. But I remember late in 2015, walking into my therapist's office and saying to him, these words, Dr. Batz, I'm a piece of shit. Because I had known that I had done things under the sole understanding, the auspices, that it didn't matter. what anybody else thought, it was just about me. And I knew that I needed to change my life. I knew that I needed to turn around. I needed to care about something greater than myself. So I walked into the therapist's office and said, I'm a piece of shit and I don't wanna feel like this anymore. And so for the last eight years, I have worked on myself. I've worked on being a better human, being a better man, being a better son, being a better Godfather, being a better friend, being a better frat brother, being better, being better at showing up for myself, being very self-aware, understanding the frailties of who I am as a human, being also understanding that at some point I needed to give myself grace for the past versions of myself." - Dr. Charles I have never talked about my past on the show. I always felt a sense of shame when referencing it, but at some point, the story needed to be told. This show started because I needed a way out, something to guide me as I moved through my journey. I went looking for the content and it wasn't there. Thus, WYR was born. It was needed because I didn't want to be that version of myself anymore, the one who only cared about himself, the one who made decisions solely for himself. I wanted to be different. Every guest on this show over the last 7 years has helped me and thousands of revolutionaries fulfill their answer to the most thought-provoking question of their life. In this episode, Dr. Batts and I discuss one of the greatest gifts we have in life, the power to forgive. It is funny that when you are looking for forgiveness for your past, life will present you with opportunities to forgive. it is up to you to work through your "ish" and hopefully revolutionize your existence. Be on the lookout for our new website and our course on how to answer the question, "What's Your Revolution?" but also what to do once you have the answer! - we love you and are here for you!

    Beating Alzheimer's Disease with Dr. Robert Turner

    At the show's recording, it would have been almost a year since my father passed. As I have talked at length about Charles S. Corprew Jr. and what he meant to me, what his light meant to me. And then I think about this, and I probably never said this on the show, Revolutionaries, that in my introspection about my relationship with my father, I realized that he was an only child and I wasn't only a child. And once we broke the barriers of being father and son, it was always there, that auspices of being father and son was always there. But I realized that my father and I were not only fraternal brothers but also brothers. We laughed and joked and played ever since I was a child. And it was the roughhousing and joking and laughter and going to basketball games and baseball games and track meets and everything. The reality of that was that my father was my brother and we enjoyed that camaraderie. But if you remember as I've talked so much at length here on this show that the last five years of his life, his light was stolen, and that I became his caregiver because of Alzheimer's and dementia. And so I think it is very, very important as I think about who listens to the show and think about being a caregiver. How do we think about Alzheimer's and dementia? How do we even take care of ourselves as we develop? How do we move through those spaces so we can not lose the last five years of our lives? And I began to think about who I want on the show to talk with me about this work, his work, and how we mitigate and deter some of the things that really exacerbate Alzheimer's. And I began to look and I found this wonderful, wonderful brother who not only is a JMU grad like myself but is one of the foremost gerontologists in the country. Dr. Robert Turner. Dr. Robert W. Turner II is an assistant professor in the Department of Clinical Research and Leadership with a secondary appointment in the Department of Neurology at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences. He is a health disparities researcher with ethnographic and mixed methods training, and you know that I love that because my dissertation was both. His current National Institute on Aging funded the K-1 Award examined psychosocial and neurocognitive risk and protective factors and accelerated cognitive aging. and mild traumatic brain injury among former NCAA Division I and former NFL athletes. His book, Not For Long, The Life and Career of the NFL Athlete is out for anyone to purchase, to really, really understand what's going on when it comes to brain health for our athletes. What is Alzheimer's Well, I'm going to do it in the simplest form. In the simplest form, we have brain cells and neurons, and they communicate with one another. And I'm learning in a lot of different ways. The human body is just the most amazing thing. But your brain communicates with your arm or your hand and tells it to move. Well, it has to have clear pathways the electronic pulses, and the messaging to be sent that way. And so what you have is when you wind up having these damaged brain cells of which you have plaques and you have tangles. And so that winds up happening with the tangles is they glob up together and then they break off and then so, therefore, they cannot, the pathways are just broken. You know, you have clogged arteries from plaque in your arteries, right? And the messaging can't flow, the blood can't flow through that. And so essentially what winds up happening, and it's, and most people think it's all about losing your memory. It's not about just that at all. It's your ability to have, your memory, your executive functioning, your ability to control, you know, your body.
