  • Episode 30 “Which Way To Go”
    Sep 9 2022
    We’re back with another episode of After the Snow with Dave & Rick! This week’s Snowfall Episode 8 of Season 2, entitled “Surrender,” spawns a conversation about the moment when crack rock was having a long lasting impact on those addicted to it. It wasn’t an overnight realizationas many of us would believe, but rather a gradual one… somewhere around 4 years after it first hit the streets. According to Rick, even then it wasn’t a common occurrence as many were still “functional” and others were involved for the hustle as opposed to the high. It seems like somewhere along the way this distinction got lost. We see just how lost things really are as we look at where Franklin and crew are in their divide for what’s most important, loyalty or business? Lucia & Gustavo get hemmed up but search for a way out, and Teddy is trying to find his footing. Join us in this week’s episode.

  • Episode 29 “Hands Up!”
    Sep 2 2022
    Dave and Rick are back with another episode of after a pretty jam packed week. Dave was in Houston, TX with Bill Bellamy and the Breakbeat Media team for 50 Cent’s Tycoon Weekend. He shares his experience catching up with old friends and handling BIDNESS at the same time. While Dave was trekking around “H-Town” hitting the pool parties, brunches, celebrity basketball game, and comedy show, Rick was out in the “A” with the podcast trio, DC Young Fly, Karlous Miller, and Chico Bean filming an episode of their 85 South Show. Having fun but also taking care of business, having recently got his trucking company out on the road. Now both back at home, Dave and Rick are ready for some pod talk! News has been circulating about boxing champ turned podcast host, Mike Tyson, voicing his frustrations with a particular streaming service for using his name and likeness to tell his life story, without him! An issue Rick knows all too well. Dave and Rick agree to stand in solidarity with the champ, by not tuning in. These situations can get really sticky and cause a lot of chaos. In this week’s episode of Snowfall, Season 2, Episode 7, “The World is Yours,” we see just how sticky things can get. From Teddy having to go at it alone while his brother is held hostage, Franklin falling short of his mother’s approval after paying off her home, Kevin on the brink of betrayal, and Lucia taking Pedro and his fiancee’s suspicious actions into her own hands, it’s a matter of time before things hit the fan and we see who’s left with their hands up. Join us in this week’s episode.

  • Episode 28 “Win The People”
    Aug 18 2022
    Relationships are at the heart of today’s episode as Rick talks about his decision to leave his bags and books behind to show up for an event in Indiana focused on providing resources to its residents—a decision highlighting his commitment to community advocacy and restoration. And when working hard, there’s got to be a balance of playing hard – which is his plan for his upcoming trip to Memphis, TN where he’ll be hosting a party with five-division Boxing world champion Floyd “Money” Mayweather. Dave shares a story about an opportunity he gave to Mayweather early in his career at the The Source Awards hosted in Miami. As the brains and visionary behind The Source and its award show, Dave shares what made it such a special experience and the impact it had in pushing the culture of hip-hop forward. An influence we can see today across the world. Dave talks about another tv series he’s been watching, Netflix’s original series, Top Boy, where not only is the culture present but British artists like Kano (also starring in the series) and Roots Manuva (“Fighting For?”) embody the elements of Hip-Hop that lend themselves to their respective genres. If we take a look at everyday life depicted in Snowfall, we can also take note of how it shaped the culture of Hip-Hop as we now know it. In this week’s episode, Season 2, Ep. 6 l, “The Offer,” Dave points out a theme commonly reflected within the culture, broken households and the role of the father. From Jerome’s encounter with Rob’s dad, Nia advocating for Franklin’s attention with his dad, and more...these family dynamics are affecting their bottom line in the business. Things are no different for Gustavo and Lucia as they’re also in a bind, hoping to win some favor with Franklin to get their hands on the recipe to cook up rock of their own – while also trying to keep their nose clean after catching on to the suspicious behavior of Pedro’s “fiancée,” who we now know is looking to win in her own way.
