🎙 Season 4: Episode 2- Title: "The Marriage Decline in Black America: A Call to Action"

We invite you to join in and listen to In-Depth conversations regarding how Black marriages are in crisis—let’s talk about it, heal it, and rise together. 🎙️

In this eye-opening episode of Black Families Rising, hosts Grinder "The Strong Dad" Spencer and Jasa Love dive deep into one of the most urgent issues impacting our community today—the alarming decline of marriage rates among Black Americans.    With only 38% currently married and projections looking even grimmer, this isn't just a statistic—it's a wake-up call!

💬 From economic hardship and mass incarceration to shifting cultural norms and gender disparities, Grinder and Jasa unpack the complex layers behind this trend.     More than just diagnosing the problem, they offer real solutions—economic empowerment, therapy, mentorship, and policy change—to help rebuild the foundation of Black love, partnership, and generational strength.

🔥 Whether you’re single, married, or somewhere in between, this episode is a must-listen. Join us for an honest conversation, a powerful call to action, and a reminder that strong Black families are the key to strong Black communities.

🎧 Tune in. Share widely. And most importantly—let’s keep rising, together.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
