Award-winning filmmaker and CEO of 24-7 Live Culture Enterprises, Omar Cook, joins us to share his secrets to producing high-quality films on a shoestring budget. From his latest projects, including the sequel to "LA Undercover" and the buzzworthy "Black Spartans," to his ambitious 12-book series, "The Billionaire Book Club," Omar provides an insider look at the creative process behind compelling storytelling. We also introduce our exciting new segment, "Two Truths and a Slap," and touch on controversial topics like the potential return of the draft and Justice Alito's comments on godliness in America.
