Welcome back to 50Talk. This is Episode 103 and the hosts of the show are glad you all have decided to join us again this week.  We also hope you all had a great Easter Sunday and enjoyed the time with family and friends or however you choose to recognize the day. Cathy and I start the show of talking about our ever changing holiday experiences with our kids getting older. 

This Easter for most of the day it was just Cathy and I and our son Max and his girlfriend. Our oldest decided to stay at his house and celebrate with his little family and Griffin decided to stay in Columbus. We did pretty good considering all these changes.  Our cousin Kyla posted on Facebook what everyone's dinner menu was. We tell ours but we want to know what you guys did. Did you have a traditional dinner or just a regular Sunday dinner? Did you go out and have an Easter Brunch or just go out to eat at a nice restaurant? Let us know what you did, hit me at our email victor50talk@gmail.com

The music world was all a buzz on friday with the release of Cowboy Carter. Beyonce's new album whis is supposedly a "Country Album. Cathy and I give our opinions on the album and some of our favorite songs. Their are 27 songs but only about an hour and a half long. What really makes an album a country album? Is it talking about your truck, your booze or a horrible break-up?  Who is "allowed" to put out a country album? Are only certain people allowed too?

Next we talk about the horrible boating accident that happened last week in Baltimore, Maryland. An entire bridge was destroyed and a community was handcuffed  by the accident and the only thing some Republican politicians could say is "this is what happens with DEI, when illegal immigrant's get into this country. Yeah, I know it sounds stupid but this is where our country is these days. They are calling the African American Mayor of Baltimore the DEI Mayor. I'm not kidding!

March Madness is still going on and last week at the girls tournament the Utah girls program had an incident where race played a part in a city and state that has a long history of racism.  Also a State political figure in Michigan decided to post a picture on X saying illegal immigrants are invading the area. Turns out those busses were filled with basketball players. People tried to correct him but he doubled down on his racist comments. 

We want to do a round table discussion on Black Athletes and March Madness and the Impact they could have on DEI. We are planning to do this on Wednesday at 7:00pm est. We will stream it live on Facebook and also record on Zoom. Please come and join in on the discussion. I will post on our 50Talk Facebook page on Tuesday sometime. 

Last topic for the week is a talk on the documentary Quiet on the Set: The Darkside of Kids TV. This is on MAX and there are four episodes  about an hour each and they are chilling. The stuff that went on is just terrible and knowing that our kids watched these shows makes it even more chilling. 

Thank you for joining us again this week and we will see you all for Episode 104 next week. Have a great week.
