The Free Cable Show

Signal Break ep. 8 - The Many Sins of Shannon Sharpe

HELLO friends. Email readers: BEFORE YOU CLICK OUT OF THIS VIDEO For the month of May we will be donating all of Free Cable proceeds to the Thomas Sankara Center for African Liberation and Unity. For every new paid sub or random donation, we’ll be sending all profits this month to the center. TSCAL is a revolutionary institution that is building power, teaching real political education in one of the most important regions–the Sahel consisting of Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso–to our combined liberation. I’ve referenced the Sahel region a lot in my work because they are a legit inspiration for Black people resisting European influence. The center has opened a second location in Niger and if you didn’t know traveling across African nations on the continent is extremely difficult because of, you fuckin guessed it, European colonization. If you wanna donate directly to the cause, subscribe to their Patreon [https://patreon.com/BurkinaBooks?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan&utm_content=join_link]. Or hit them on Cash app [https://cash.app/$BurkinaBooks] Like, forreal, even if you don’t subscribe to me on the monthly, a donation to them would go so far in accomplishing our goal. Second thing: We are changing up our cadence for work. Free Cable will drop one (paid) longform piece a month with a couple free bonusees pieces here and there. And we’ll be going live every Monday on Substack at 7PM EST. Alright,, goodbye email subs. THIS EPISODE IS PACKED We covered, Sinners weak 2, Shannon Sharpe, Patrick Mahomes, and MY FAVORITE Substack notes. God bless and godspeed.
