In Episode 155, I sit down with my guys Malcolm Askew and Anthony Moore to talk about the creation and growth of our men’s group, “The Cave.”
What started as a vision has turned into a powerful brotherhood. Since last February, we’ve been meeting every Tuesday night at Havana's Wine and Cigar Lounge in downtown Gainesville to build community, accountability, and real connection among men.
In this episode, we discuss:
Why we started The Cave
The growth and impact we’ve seen over the past year
The importance of mental and physical health for men
Why men need safe spaces and support groups
Breaking the stigma around mental health — especially within Black men
This conversation is honest, necessary, and rooted in brotherhood. If you’ve ever felt like men don’t have enough spaces to be open, vulnerable, and supported — this episode is for you.
Make sure to like, comment, and subscribe. And if you’re in Gainesville, pull up on a Tuesday night.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Andrew Payne, a dedicated father, police officer with the Alachua Police Department, and founder of BAM4LIFE, a mentoring program transforming young lives in the Gainesville and Alachua area.
Andrew opens up about his intentional approach to parenting—weekly check-ins with his kids, teaching love through everyday gestures, and creating space for honest communication. He also shares how his experiences in law enforcement and community mentoring shape his mission to empower the next generation.
Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about fatherhood, leadership, and what it means to truly show up for your children and community.

I had the opportunity to pull up to the state's capital and chop it up with my man Bryan Stringer for episode 132. He is a father, author, ex-felon, and entrepreneur that shared many 💎 with me during this podcast. He has a story that must be heard!
