Dr. L’s Podcast
Captain Hunter’s Podcast is now Dr. L’s Podcast. During the pandemic, I went back to school and completed a doctorate in Leadership. While I still plan to hit on some policing stories, I will mostly pivot to self-improvement topics. Having overcome many mental hurdles, I think it’s time I gave back. I want to help people become the best version of themselves. I also plan to hit on love and relationship topics. Having gone through a divorce and returning to the dating market, I will speak about the mistakes I made along the way and how a mature man looks at dating. Buckle up as we discuss some critical life-changing topics. Hit me up if you have any show suggestions: bigglphd@gmail.com And don’t forget to follow me on Youtube - Dr. L’ Podcast (formerly @bigglphd)

Is the Black Church Doing Enough for the Community? w/ Dr. Tommie Jackson
Sunday May 03, 2020
Sunday May 03, 2020
Yes, I know I shouldn't suggest that the Black Church is a monolith. I do understand that the churches are separate and have their own philosophy concerning community activism. However, I do want to explore whether since the Civil Rights struggle of the 1960s has the overall Black Church been doing enough to help the community move forward. Dr. Tommie Jackson is my guest.

COVID 19 and Why Blacks are Dying at a Higher Rate w/ Dr Ray
Sunday Apr 26, 2020
Sunday Apr 26, 2020
In this episode, I welcome Dr. Rashawn Ray. We will be discussing a recent article he wrote for brookings.com. In the article called Why are Blacks dying at higher rates from COVID-19?, Dr. Ray discusses the disparate impact that the current pandemic is having among the Black and lower-income communities. We had a great discussion and I'm looking forward to having him back on to discuss his work with police and Implicit Bias.

Being Careful When Others Aren't
Thursday Apr 23, 2020
Thursday Apr 23, 2020
With some of our political leaders completely out to lunch, it is up to us to stay safe in these times. These people would have us be lab rats as they "open" up the economy. Can they really be that greedy? The answer is yes. Our lives are meaningless and they have shown us that they are willing to sacrifice the weak, vulnerable, and elderly for a buck. However, we must remain wise, despite what they are saying.

My Natural Hair Story w/ Lori Tharps
Sunday Apr 19, 2020
Sunday Apr 19, 2020
For just a moment we are gonna dip away from the LE conversation and focus on the natural hair movement. We have all heard of the wrestler who had his dreds cut off before a meet, and most have heard that Gabriel Union abruptly left the show America's Got Talent over a disagreement concerning her hair. Apparently America's got talent, but no tolerance for natural or changing styles of black hair. Prof. Lori Tharps of Temple University will help to shed some light on the mystery surrounding back hair and the natural hair movement.

End of Policing w/ Prof. Alex Vitale
Sunday Apr 12, 2020
Sunday Apr 12, 2020
There has been some debate as to whether the police and correctional facilities should be abolished. My guest, Prof. Alex Vitale does not take that stance, however, he does believe that the political structure which creates and approves of many of the mandates of law enforcement should be changed or improved. Prof. Vitale is the author of End of Policing. In that work, he explores many of the roles that law enforcement has taken and analyzes whether the programs have worked or made the problems worse.
