Shownotes

In this episode of The Pick Truth Podcast, hosts Dr. Vicky Harris & LaMont Hearn Jr. read and rate some sweet, emotional, weird, and crazy confession stories. The rating ranges from Bell Pepper, Poblano, Jalapeno, Thai Chili, and Reaper. Vicky and LaMont start the conversation by reviewing their experiences for the past week.

In today’s episode, the hosts share the confession of a guy who despises his friend who became a celebrity. He did so because they were like brothers since they met in a church. For two years, they were practically inseparable, but that was until he started his music career. He decided it was best to devote all his time to music which led to shutting out important people like me out of his life. His career has exploded, and he’s making a lot of money. I'm happy for him but unhappy because to him I don’t exist anymore.

Dr. Richard also reads a confession of a guy who hid and stole equipment so a DJ could lose his job. He used to work as an engineer at his parent’s radio station, and the management wanted to eliminate his position and replace him with a sunlight show that would cost far less than what they paid him. They unstandardized the satellite based on the roof and a satellite receiver with an audio code from the studio. I was forbidden from mentioning this to anyone, and knowing that he was going to lose his job was killing me. But eventually, the show started, and he lost his job.

In this week’s Truth in The News, we are joined by a special guest Dr. Richard Johnson, the founder of Hit the Deck Entertainment company, which was created 14 years ago. We talk about work, ethics, success, disconnection, and plots in the money-making world. Money can drive anyone crazy. Today we are unwrapping everything, No secrets. Find out more about success and money plagues in the episode!
