Most men don’t actually know their core values—and it shows up everywhere.
In relationships. In money. In masculinity. In respect.

In this episode of Straight From Da Chair, the guys sit down in the barbershop to talk integrity, accountability, boundaries, and what men stand for in a world that feels increasingly transactional. When you don’t know what you stand for, everything can move you—culture, social media, temptation, trauma, and the pressure to “provide.”

This conversation breaks down how men quietly lose themselves, the difference between loyalty and self-betrayal, why modern relationships feel one-sided, and how boundaries protect marriages and mental health. The episode builds toward a powerful spoken-word piece by poet Julius Kelly on Black boys, healing, masculinity, and mental health.

In this episode:
• Core values vs. “street code”
• Why integrity protects your identity
• Loyalty, responsibility, and self-respect
• Boundaries in relationships and marriage
• One-sided relationships vs. real storms
• Community, culture, and healing for men

Listener question:
What’s one value you refuse to compromise—and what experience forced you to choose it?

We’re told wars are fought for freedom, safety, and justice.
But what if that’s not the full story?

In this barbershop-style conversation, The Barber With The Bow Tie and Brice Davis break down why nations really go to war, how money, oil, and power shape global decisions, and why Black men often feel the consequences long after the headlines fade.

This isn’t political theater.
It’s grown-man perspective.

From Venezuela and U.S. foreign policy to America’s role as the world’s police, the conversation digs into media narratives, accountability, and control—then brings it home. We talk about responsibility at the personal level, including fatherhood, relationships, dating standards, child support, food stamps, and modern masculinity.

This episode connects global power plays to everyday life, asking the hard questions most people avoid—and challenging listeners to think critically about both systems and personal choices.

If you care about awareness, accountability, leadership, and leveling up mentally, financially, and emotionally, this episode will hit.

💬 Join the conversation:

Is war really about protection—or is it about profit?

It sounds like a viral question — but when it came up in the barbershop, the answer wasn’t simple.

In this episode of Straight From Da Chair, Brice Davis & The Barber with the Bow Tie dive into a raw, unfiltered conversation about money, faith, discipline, culture, and personal responsibility. What starts as talk about boxing, Mike Tyson, and massive payouts slowly turns into a deeper discussion about values — and what happens when opportunity puts them to the test.

This isn’t preaching. It’s not a debate stage. It’s how men actually talk when no one’s trying to sound perfect.

Everyone claims values… until money, fame, or pressure shows up. Discipline sounds easy when you’re broke. Faith feels simple when nothing’s on the line. But what happens when the number is real?

Topics include:

• $10 million or a conversation with Jesus

• Is money a blessing or a test?

• Discipline after success

• Would you fight Mike Tyson for $92M?

• Loyalty, culture, and growth

• Modern masculinity and contradictions

🎧 Listen in, then ask yourself honestly —
What would you choose, and why?
