The Hot Sam's Experience: Changing Lives Through Style & Care w. Tony Stovall
Host Raphael L. Price welcomes Tony Stovall, co-owner of Michigan’s oldest haberdashery, Hot Sam’s Detroit, for a deep dive into a century of fashion, history, and resilience. Tony shares his personal journey from an electrical engineering student looking for a summer job in 1974 to becoming the owner of the iconic store where his father bought him his first suit. They discuss the store's profound history—founded in 1921, the same year as Black Wall Street—and how this Detroit treasure has withstood the Great Depression, wars, and pandemics to remain a pillar of the community. Tony opens up about the philosophy behind the "Hot Sam's Experience," emphasizing that true style is about love, greeting people with dignity, and ensuring every customer feels at home. He offers timeless business advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, covering the power of a handshake, the importance of "keeping your word" with vendors, and the spiritual faith that fuels his perseverance. Later in the show, fashion luminary Terence Beesley joins to provide a masterclass in style, breaking down wardrobe essentials like the classic navy suit, how to style a turtleneck with a sport coat, and why the cognac shoe is the "new black". This episode celebrates the "curators of class" who ensure that you don't just wear clothing, but radiate confidence and legacy.

The Backside 1980, Olympic Visions & A Legacy in the Making w. Brian Rice II (Part 4)
In the final installment of this four-part special, Host Raphael Levon Price and "Flyin’" Brian Rice II bring the journey full circle—connecting the humble beginnings of a 10-year-old kid in Michigan to the futuristic edge of professional snowboarding. Brian analyzes throwback footage of himself at Alpine Valley, where he turned unattended piles of snow into jumps, proving his philosophy that you don’t need a massive mountain to start—you just need to seize the opportunity "right under your feet". He contrasts those early days with the most dangerous conditions he faces now, describing the terror of Austrian whiteouts where you can’t see the ground and "you're never in too much of a rush to save your life". The conversation turns to the cutting edge of the sport as Brian reveals the "impossible" trick he is currently mastering: the "Backside 1980," a gravity-defying maneuver consisting of five-and-a-half rotations that didn't even exist when he was growing up. Brian then takes listeners inside his mind at the future Winter Olympics drop-in, sharing his visualization process and the raw mantra he uses to stay present. Finally, Brian lays out his 5-year plan: to become the first Black American to medal in Olympic snowboarding, to work with the Chill Foundation to inspire inner-city youth, and to eventually follow in the footsteps of Salima Mesakela as a voice for the sport. Raphael closes the series with a powerful spiritual message on vision and "mustard seed faith," sealing a conversation about breaking barriers and flying high.

Mamba Mentality: Competing Through Pain to Win w. Brian Rice II (Part 3)
Host Raphael Levon Price is back with Flyin’ Brian Rice II as they dive deep into the mental and physical resilience required to be an elite snowboarder. In this episode, Brian opens up about a defining moment of failure where trying to copy his peers—being a "sheep in the herd"—led to repeated crashes on a "back triple 16." He explains how reinventing the trick to fit his own unique style not only allowed him to land it but gave him ownership over his craft. The conversation takes a gritty turn as Brian details the "darkest time" of his adult life: breaking his collarbone twice in one season. Channeling "Mamba Mentality," he recounts the insane decision to fly to Switzerland just days after a doctor’s appointment, tape up his broken bone, and compete against Olympians—landing a 27th place finish while still injured. Brian also breaks down his evolving training philosophy, shifting from heavy lifting to functional athleticism, sharing a hilarious story about breaking a sauna floorboard while jumping rope. Raphael issues a public call to find Brian a world-class trainer (shoutout Tim Grover) to prep for the 2026 Olympics, and they discuss the essential gear that keeps Brian moving, specifically the shock-absorbing tech of FP Insoles.

Flyin' Brian in His Bag w. Brian Rice II (Part 2)
Host Raphael Levon Price continues the conversation with rising snowboarder Brian Rice II—better known as Flyin’ Brian—as they break down the tape on four pivotal moments in his career. Brian takes us inside the mechanics of his signature trick, the "Sloth Roll," explaining the contortionist flexibility required to maneuver his body in opposite directions mid-air. He recounts the surreal experience of his first Big Air World Cup in Chur, Switzerland, where he competed on a massive scaffold jump under the lights with only three days' notice. The episode shifts gears to the backcountry, where Brian narrates a high-speed run down Loveland Pass, revealing how he scans for hidden rocks and avalanche cracks while maintaining composure through breath work. Finally, they discuss his global travels—including a hilarious take on being mistaken for Travis Scott abroad—and Brian delivers powerful advice for the next generation: don't wait for perfect mountains; master the opportunities "right under your feet," even if it's a converted landfill in Michigan.

From Small Hills to Big Air: The Evolution of Flyin' Brian w. Brian Rice II (Part 1)
Host Raphael Levon Price welcomes rising snowboarder Brian Rice II—better known as Flyin’ Brian—for a powerful origin story that goes from the small hills of Michigan to the elite peaks of Vail. Brian shares how he tried every sport imaginable until snowboarding became the one thing he couldn’t live without, and how his mom’s relentless belief in him literally launched his career—starting a ski club just so he’d have a crew to ride with, then quietly signing him up for competitions that changed his life. He opens up about competing for the first time without even knowing it, winning soon after, and making the leap at just 13 years old to move across the country alone to train with Ski & Snowboard Club Vail, the top winter sports program in North America. Along the way, Brian breaks down the mindset that fuels his grind—lessons from his father and coaches, the courage to try again after failure, and why fun is the secret ingredient to real success. This episode also features 10 exclusive clips Flyin’ Brian sent in, showcasing his tricks, training, and the big, playful, unique style that’s putting him on a path to history as he chases his dream of becoming the first Black American to compete in snowboarding at the Winter Olympics.

Level Up Men’s Health: Screening, Access & Advocacy w. Dr. Michael Lutz
Host Raphael Levon Price sits down with urologist and Michigan Men’s Health Foundation founder Dr. Michael Lutz to chart a practical path from prostate-cancer survivorship to whole-man health. Dr. Lutz shares the kidney-disease scare that made prevention personal, why he built MMHF (2008), and how Detroit’s Men’s Health Event at Ford Field grew into an annual “checkup” for thousands of men. We unpack signature programs—Blue Monday, Cogs & Kegs, and Run for the Ribbon at the Detroit Zoo—plus the 2020 pivot to a drive-through fair at the Michigan State Fairgrounds that screened 650 men when everything else was shut down. He explains three actions every man should start today (know your numbers, age-appropriate labs, be proactive), the push to democratize screening with a mobile unit (“the Toolbox”) for rural Michigan, and how urologists can lead as men’s-health advocates. We also touch on partnerships with pro sports (including the Detroit Pistons and Man Cave Health), mentorship at OUWB/Beaumont, and a powerful equity story from filmmaker Lindi Maduro that fuels the mission.
