The bond between a father and son is one of the strongest. Those relationships have been immortalized in various media such as music and movies.

The lessons and stories passed down through the years are part of strengthening that relationship.   In this episode, host Earl Holland Jr. sits down with his father, Earl Holland Sr., to discuss his experiences growing up and attending school during segregation; and why he served in the United States Marines.

Earl Sr. will also share his thoughts on his beloved Oakland Raiders, why he doesn’t have a smartphone, and offer some advice to his son about being a new dad.
