In Episode 102 of To Be Clear, host Dawn Montgomery featuring co-host Freddie B TV ask the real questions: Are we actually healing or just going through the motions? They kick things off with the rise of people turning to AI apps for therapy, then unpack the quiet fade of once-popular healing content like Red Table Talk. The conversation continues with a look at Netflix’s Untold: Shooting Guards and the powerful stories of Black athletes the spotlight skipped over. Then it’s on to the Rodney Hinton Jr. trial—what the media’s not saying—and the NBA vs. WNBA narrative as both leagues make noise for very different reasons.
