Talking Star: Cassidy vs. Arsonal Reactions
On a research show, Star sifts through the data to be even more accurate. Judge Tammy Kemp is talking with sense at this time.

This shows the consistency and integration of ideals that Mr. Torain displays. Also on the show, Mr. Torain explores the rap battle waged by Arsonal and Cassidy.

"Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: Movie Hombre & Christian Morality'"
Dr. Brook plows through the beginning of the show talking about the film Hombre (1967), which he finds to be an anti-Western. He says that most people miss the point of the movie. He points out that Native Americans have been mistreated. The entire movie revolves around the Paul Newman character, John “Hombre” Russell. Dr. Brook discusses plot points and lauds Newman’s acting and the direction. He proclaims that Russell has a strong sense of morals. Hombre, Dr. Brook explains, compromises on important issues. “Christianity is mentioned once but implied throughout the movie,” Dr. Brook says.

"Talking Star: 'The Star Report: Do Snitches Really Get Stitches?'"
Star begins the show with his two fears: “sharks and fire coochie.” He then brings to light the fact that Amber Guyger has been sentenced and convicted. He discusses Joshua Brown, the witness in Guyger’s murder trial who received fatal rounds. He contemplates criminal organizations who have taken out so-called snitches and conspiracists. Mr. Torain says that the cops in Mexico are corrupt. He speaks of the Yakuza in Japan and the Chinese Triads. Stevie Wonder, according to Mr. Torain, could have provided intelligence on how someone gunned down Brown. A caller says that people from the sheriff to the judge acted “unprofessionally.”

Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: Andrew Klavan on Ayn Rand'
Dr. Brook breezes by the impeachment mess like an eagle passing through the sky. He discusses the responses that he received after broadcasting a show that mainly concerned opera. He’s glad that people enjoyed the show but is a bit dismayed. He says that listeners and viewers took a less than bright view of women over the years and how capitalism has, more than anything else, helped to liberate them. He then springs forward into the show with the topic of the day: Andrew Klavan.

“Talking Star: 'The Star Report': Should Black People Identify as Color Neutral?”
If you don’t mind spoilers, continue reading. If you do mind, watch the film Joker (2019). Before anything, Mr. Torain exclaims that the Tyler, the Creator show was lit. He was giddy as a teenybopper screaming Tyler’s name at the show. Next, he smoothly delves into the common thread of the narrative, the Joker film. He says that the film is not an adaptation of any comic book in any sense. The film explores mental health and anxiety issues present within relatively modern culture. Star points out that there are no CGI effects included in the film, yet the cinematography is sublime. Star says that he grows weary of movies with all kinds of big shootouts with machine guns and rockets and missiles. This film that he discusses is a big plus to him. The Joker employs a revolver. He shoots three white boys on the subway, Star describes. Additionally, the Joker (Joaquin Phoenix) stabs a man in the head. In a wicked scene to Mr. Torain, a little person is given the opportunity to leave a room with a chain lock on the door and fails to reach it to escape. Star says that Joaquin Phoenix is superb.

Talking Star: 'Are Black People Really on Code?'
Mr. Torain is an informant. He tells. He’s a snitch. And this is meant in the best way. Star testifies that he got caught lacking and that a young lady may be on Instagram with a photo of her and Star in the bed. Mr. Torain then switches lanes and talks about the judge hugging Guyger and giving her a Bible. Next, Star breaks down how there’s a difference between bleach blonde and natural. White women who have naturally blonde hair want the “goddess look.” Bleach blondes are just reaching. Then, Star delineates the question of the show concerning blacks being on code or within a collective, advancing in society. He ponders whether as a group, blacks can better themselves in the context of the “greater good.”

Talking Star: Amber Guyger Found Guilty in Dallas County
The duel of topics motivates Troi “Star” Torain. He becomes animated and more focused as he launches into the show. He discusses how the judge in the Amber Guyger murder trial should be dubbed a different name. And in Bruce Lee fashion, Torain switches topics with ease like a swift kick to side of the head. He talks about how hip hop architects Rakim and MC Serch might go to blows over alleged writings that occurred decades ago. Then, he turns back to the Guyger case seamlessly. The Castle Doctrine which upholds a citizen’s rights to be immune to laws that would normally be offenses if they take place in said citizen’s vehicle or home came into the conversation. Star finds this to be damning in this case. Botham Jean was in the comfort of his home when he was shot to death by Guyger. With just a turn on the winding road of discourse, Star once again talks about Rakim and MC Serch. He states that the former is angry at the latter over the aforementioned writing fallout. He says that there’s “nothing worse than an old clout chaser.”

Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: WeWork Fiasco & Silicon Valley Culture'
Dr. Yaron Brook may have a PhD in finance, but he works like a chemist. One day, he’s waxing poetic about the beauties of an opera. A few days later, he’s discussing the beauty of markets with the same passion and thorough delivery as in the previous episode. This experimentation with different branches (aesthetics and politics and economics, respectively) allows him to convey a message of rationality and substance. Here, he explores the inner-workings of one of the nation’s most treasured regions: Silicon Valley.

Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: Corruption in DC, Manon, Feminism and Capitalism'
To usher in the show, Dr. Yaron Brook speaks about the utter disaster that is the current impeachment process aimed at President Trump. Grounds for impeachment ought to include cozying up to dictators and writing each other “love songs.” No matter how you paint it, corruption is institutionalized, according to Dr. Brook, and all politicians are corrupt. Dr. Brook questions why Nikki Haley gets paid $75,000-$100,000 a pop for speaking engagements. He holds that politicians “produce nothing but become multimillionaires.” This is an age-old tale of how the people who occupy office hold immense power already in a political sense and then through pull and graft, show up with millions of dollars.

Reason First: How Many Theodore Bensons Are in the World?
To die in prison is a strange fate. It means that a person who clearly committed the crime now must meet his or her death for what they had done wrong. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, just under 20,000 men and women perished behind jail or prison walls between the years 2007 and 2010. In Delaware, convicted murderer Theodore Benson was the latest case of this face of death. While investigators continue to work on the case, it appears that Benson passed away from natural causes at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Kent County.

Reason First: Was this Wilmington, Delaware Ex-Councilman Greedy?
Greed is good. And no, it’s not in the sense of the 1987 Oscar® award-winning film Wall Street. The speech from that movie regarding avarice remains to be one of the most monumental oratory deliveries in movie history. But it falls short. It doesn’t explain the intricacies and the profound value of what it means to be greedy. Most people confuse greed with gluttony. The difference is that the former is about production and the latter is about consumption, particularly destruction.

Reason First: A Tale of Two Delaware Areas Part II
It’s a story of geography. Wilmington, Delaware is a tiny city in a tiny state. Bear, Delaware is even tinier. But the main difference is in the civic structure of both of these areas. Wilmington is known for its mean streets and comparatively high levels of the start of physical force. Bear... well not so much. According to the News Journal, a New Castle male was found guilty of killing a fellow worker in 2015 in Bear. Just a few days prior to this writing, a 25-year-old man was snuffed out of existence by gunfire. This was only a few days ago. The gulf that exists between Wilmington and other areas of Delaware continues to stretch in regard to slayings and other crimes.
