Seems like everyone is doing sequels these days. So SNA Live decided to join in with Black to the Future 2. HBCU's are recently at the forefront of not only sports news, but popular culture as well. In this episode 3 The Hard Way get into the long illustrious list of prominent athletes that went to HBCU's (you'll be shocked by some of the names

) and discuss the future of HBCU's in sports as they are joined by special guest, former NFL exec and scout David Turner. David doesn't hold back in his assessment of where sports is at currently and where it's heading regarding HBCU and their place in the sports landscape

3 The Hard Way also brings back the segments This Can't Be Life and What You Rockin Wit!! Show HBCU's some love and join us in our first ever sequel of our podcast!! 

The stage is set, the lights are bright and everybody loves you when you're performing on the field or court in sports. But what happens after the limelight dims? 3 The Hard Way dive into the topic nobody talks about; where do athletes go after their athletic career is over and you're not one of the hall of famers that can live off of their name for the rest of their lives. This episode 3 The Hard Way are joined by  special guest former New York City basketball star and UMass shooting guard Charlton Clarke, who gives insight into what it took to make it to the Div I basketball level, the pitfalls on the way to that level and the reality of life afterwards. 

3 The Hard Way also bring back segments "This Can't Be Life" and the popular segment "What You Rockin Wit?" This won't be your average sports talk!! Make sure to take notes!

We all remember that famous Austin Powers quote, "That's a Maaaan, Baby!!" But in 2022, what does it mean to be a "man"? Is it the old school definition of the gruff, strong but silent tough guy, or is it something deeper? In this episode 3 The Hard Way delves into this complicated question of what it means to me a man in 2022. Does your sexuality dictate this? Does your gender identity dictate this? These are complicated questions in the modern era. Listen as 3 The Hard Way go deep into these questions and discusses what the old school definition was and does it apply to today. They also bring back their segment of "Honorable Mention", honoring the late, great actor/director Sidney Poitier. And of course they wrap it up with their popular segment "What You Rockin Wit?"
