Icons on Trial and Tales of Hopeful Paws

SLAP the Power

Ever wondered how to balance the heartwarming with the thought-provoking? Join us on "Slap the Power" as we kick off with tales of courage and compassion through our "Paws for Progress" initiative, spotlighting the incredible recovery stories of Miss Daisy, Mr. Wiggles, and Bowie. We're thrilled to update you on their journey towards healing and the upcoming adoption event in Los Angeles. Plus, our Gen Z correspondent Asher Freidberg keeps things lively with "Make this Ish Make Sense," offering a fresh take on everything from music to mascots.
When does fandom cross into a moral dilemma? We tackle this thorny question amidst allegations against iconic music figures like Jay-Z and Sean Diddy Combs, exploring the tricky terrain of separating art from the artist. Adding a lighter note, we venture into the whimsical world of Japanese mascots, spotlighting the antics of Chitan, a rogue figure who’s become a global sensation. Special guest Luna, a multidimensional artist and spiritual wellness coach, shares her transformative journey of healing generational trauma and embracing her role as a light worker in a complex world.
Shifting gears, we journey through the realms of plant-based healing and the evolving concept of sobriety, encouraging you to explore personal paths to wellness. From the impact of systemic issues to the pressing need for societal transformation, we shed light on the importance of activism, community, and feminine energy in today's world. Don't miss our call to action as we discuss healthcare reform, justice, and the power of collective healing. Stay connected with us on social media to keep up with our dynamic discussions and vibrant community.
