Is romance without finance still a nuisance?-- Yes as the economy gets more challenging for some... Great show.. Listened to the download. Love the conversation. Solutions... many unemployed and underemployed have to create income for self... when the jobs dry up. Check out my thoughts on my podcast http://www.newsthatyoucanuse.podomatic.com/

Brother Marcus, Thank you for a great show!! I greatly appreciate you for allowing us to share our perspectives about the importance of compatible relationships on air and within the chat room. Although, we(people) may have different point of views about relationships and life, the key is to be clear about who you are, know your core values(which reflect what is truly important to you),what you want to be, do and have in life, clearly define the type of relationships that you desire from the inside out(personal & professional), and position yourself to receive the manifestation(quality relationships, career opportunities ,etc.) There's too much "settling for less/mediocrity" and not enough "preparing/positioning ourselves for success, " which begins in the mind, followed by creating goals/plan of action, and taking consistent action. When one door closes, instead of complaining about why the door closed, regroup and move forward to "create" a new open door! This is why I believe that we should be in a constant state of enriching our lives spiritually, reading great books, listening to motivational/inspirationalaudio, learn from great thinkers(current and past), and surround ourselves with positive/purpose-minded people. Too often, I hear so many Christians proclaim, " God is a Big God and he can do anything/everything." My question,...so why don't we trust him to help us do great things even when the money and the economy look a little "funny." Les Brown quote, "If you set goals and go after them with all the determination you can muster, your gifts will take you places that will amaze you." Unfortunately, I could not continue listening to the show due to an important phone call. However, I look forward to your future shows and hope to be a vessel of value whenever I tune in! Thank you and much success as you continue the journey of empowering lives. ~ Dr Innergizer

Good luck on the show tonight. I regret that I will not be able to call in. I have a meeting to go to concerning the 3 week Daniel fast I'm about to embark upon. I'm especially dismayed because this is a topic I have a lot of opinion on. I believe we all are given emotions to share and that it's perfectly fine for men to cry when overcome by such emotion. I appreciate the vulnerability of a man who releases his emotions and it only draws me to a man when he has trusted me enough to cry or share how he feels with me. The only 2 men i've dated that I know I'll love forever are the two that felt strongly enough for me to cry in front of me. There are many times in the Bible when men cry out to God. Does God tell them to stop crying and be a man? No. He comforts them. I think as women we should comfort our men the same and let them know that our arms are a soft place to fall when they must traverse this world that constantly wants them to be macho men. I could say more but we're not on the show! God Bless and if I get home early enough I'll be there.

Great show, you are meeting the needs of the black people and giving other races a chance to see that we have integrity, love and are a very intelligent people. Our Gifts has made room for us By the will of GOD. Continue. We don’t have to be depressed we have to become knowledgeable of the truth by the will of GOD and master that demon. Accept your calling you have gone to another level you are a preacher. Phyllis Hyman was seeking something that she couldn’t find in man, her singing and friends a void was in her life, if she would have had someone to tell her about CHRIST she would have been fulfilled.

Wake up Call Show

Wake up Call Show

SOME CROOKS GO TO JAIL OTHERS RUN FOR PRESIDENT The WakeUpCallshow intends to remind every voter on need to know information about John Mccain. It was awfuly smart of him to pick such a controversial VP to keep all eyes off of him as he slithers his way in as to keep us from be reminded about some skeletons in his closet. Do you remember his role with S& L scandal with the Keaton Five. He and his buddies cost the American people billions of dollars with this ethic scandal. Wow he has always been good at manuevering his way out once the shi@#$ hits the fan. It was nice of him to ask to suspend the debate but Mccain needed to be reminded that people in hell want ice water. We can no longer just turn the other cheek while John McCain continues his lies in public. Do your homework its all there on record. John Mccain once admitted to intentionally filing false income tax returns to defraud the IRS by not claiming thousands of dollars in gifts McCain and his family received from Charles Keating and Keating’s company. Yes the same buddy in the keaton five scandal. Years later, when the IRS noticed Keating’s company had written the gifts off to McCain as business expenses, McCain fessed up and admitted filing false returns and made a “donation” to the U.S. Treasury to cover the amount he defrauded American tax payers. McCain also leaked information about the Keating Five to the press multiple times in an effort to appear above the other Senators in the scandal. This is his history of behaviour simillar to how he played his fellow POWs in Vietnam. A 1989 Phoenix New Times article summed it up best with thier title - McCain: The Most Reprehensible of the Keating Five. Well the fruit is not falling far from the tree either with his wife, Cindy McCain, along with her father who made a $359,000 investment in retail property owned by Charles Keating in 1986, a year before John McCain first met with federal regulators on behalf of Keating. Keating was later convicted on 73 counts of fraud, conspiracy, and other crimes. Years later, Cindy McCain sold her investment for $15,000,000. For anyone not aware of the Keating Five, here’s a very simple summary: Charles Keating owned a savings and loan in California. He was illegally using the money of his bank’s customers to give loans to himself and friends that they didn’t have to repay, and to speculate on risky real estate investments, which was strictly forbidden by U.S. law (and was one cause of the Great Depression). When the feds found out what was going on and launched an investigation into Keating and his company, Keating called five U.S. Senators whom he had wined, dined, and lavished with hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations and personal gifts. Keating asked the five Senators to tell the feds to bug off, and the five Senators, later known as the Keating Five, obliged, meeting with federal investigators twice and pressuring them to stop investigating Keating’s crimes. They bought Keating some time, but the feds didn’t give up and eventually Keating was nailed. The reason the feds were so persistent was because Keating wasn’t playing with mere chump change. Keating blew $3.4 billion through illegal personal loans and bad investments, and the FDIC had to reimburse Keating’s customers who had been ripped off. (Background Info - Keating wasn’t the only Savings and Loan owner who was committing fraud, 20% of the S&L’s that failed during that three year period were found to have been caused by fraud and/or insider trading. The failure of the Lincoln Savings and Loan and other S&L’s pushed the country into a recession, costing the U.S. government $126 billion dollars in FDIC insurance payouts to investors. All of this came to a crescendo during the first year of the presidency of George H.W. Bush, who pushed through the S&L bailout plan to keep the economy afloat.) When the involvement of the Keating Five was made public, a scandal erupted and the Senate Ethics Committee launched their own investigation into whether the Keating Five had violated Senate ethics rules. The other four Senators left office either immediately or within one term. John McCain was formally rebuked by the Senate Ethics Committee for exercising “poor judgment” for intervening with the federal regulators on behalf of Keating, but because McCain accepted Keating’s gifts of travel and vacations to Bahama while McCain was a member of the House of Representatives (he served one term there before moving to the Senate), the Senate claimed they had no jurisdiction to censure McCain. (However the meetings to pressure federal regulators occurred during the first few months of McCain serving in the Senate in 1987, so that excuse doesn’t hold up). John McCain then went back to the drawing board and re-invented himself as “the Straight-Talk Express” and the media gobbled it up. “Tax-Evading-Criminal” doesn’t sound as catchy as “Straight-Shooting-War-Hero”. Ever since the scandal, when McCain lies today, it’s never questioned, because he’s a “straight talker”. The man has more skeletons in his closet than any politician in history. The Keating Five is just one bone. After reading the Slate article, ask yourself: if Obama or any other candidate had a scandal such as the Keating Five in their past, would the mainstream media never question it? Could any other candidate even have a political career after the Keating Five? For the other four Senators, the answer is no. And while Charles Keating went to prison for his role in the scandal, John McCain swept it under the rug and could soon be President of the United States of America. Perhaps while he is so busy digging a hole for Obama to fall in with all these great ads tying Obama to the detroit mayor and Kenya leaders, Rev Wright. He may fall in it himself when people begin to really look closely at this crook. Its no wonder our economy is in shambles look at the folks we have operating our goverment. Look at thier background. We should be reminded of Mccain's circle of close friends and business partners such as Graham, and Karl Rove and some of these others in his group that are behind deregulation and taking money from lobbyist and much more. LOOK AT THE VIDEO on wakeupcallshow profile screen ON WHY MCCAIN SHOULD NOT BE VOTED IN AS PRESIDENT IT REMINDS OF THE OLD AND THE NEW. IT IS VERY MUCH ON POINT AND A COULD REMINDED OF MCCAIN'S EXTREME BEHAVIOUR, HIS LIES AND LACK OF GOOD JUDGMENT AND IMPULSIVENESS. He glorifies his own military service while voting against veterans, he opposed the additional funding for safe military equipment for amored vehicles for soldiers in Iraq costing many thier lives. He didnt support the increase on the GI Bill. He has also voted against increases in veterans healthcare while supporting price cuts for the wealthy though. Well John why dont you support your fellow veterans, since you are proud of military service? Lets keep it real and not be fooled by this man who only will put us in another war. Host Wake Up Call

HIV testing in the Bronx is already fairly widespread. Nearly 7 of 10 Bronx adults have been tested at least once in their lifetime. But as many as 250,000 adults have never been tested, and statistics indicate that many are diagnosed far too late. AIDS killed 357 residents of the borough in 2006, about a third of all AIDS deaths in the city.

    God willing, this Sunday evening Brother Marcus celebrates his birthday as we get into another relevant topic around the role that religion plays in Male / Female Relationships in our community. How important is religion to your marriage or relationship? Do some spouses / partners act the total fool towards their mates and other family members once they find 'ligion? Do we really want folks to accept our religious beliefs and understanding just to make us happy? Can you live in the same house where both people profess the same thing and still not be a family? Does the way that some Pastors and Religious teachers preach create disunity and discord in the home? Is your husband / wife really a demon and have you now, really become a saint? What is really the best way to model our new found faith to our loved ones after we have lived so riotously all those years before? What are some skills that will attract your spouse / partner and not push them away? Why have we become so self-righteous! Is conversion our own vanity? Why have we become so intolerant of anyone who sees things differently than we do? Must our spouses / partners be in the same religion as we are and sit in the same church, mosque or synagogue with us in order for them to be right in our eyes? Isn’t the God that created the heavens, the earth and the universe bigger than our small, myopic, limited view and understanding of Him? Whatever happened to the righteous principles that undergird all of the religions?

    When Facebook attacks!

    A study carried out for a divorce website claims Facebook was named in at least 20 percent of divorce petitions in the US last year. And the most common reason is spouses engaging in saucy sex chat with their online "friends". Other social networking sites, including MySpace, Bebo and Twitter, also featured heavily in the sample of 5,000 divorce papers studied. It appears many people are having inappropriate chats with people they were not supposed to. There are many in America who are now saying that Facebook and other social networking sites can be“hazardous to marriages and relationships.” Facebook is so popular that it now boasts that it has 200 million unique worldwide visitors! Have you or your partner gone Facebook crazy? Or is it Myspace, Tagged or Twitter crazy? Is your significant other sleeping with their computer or updating their status while using the restroom? What if your partner’s Facebook friends are people they went to high school, college, or grad school with? What if your partner realizes from looking at one of their friend’s pictures that so-and-so from way back when is attractive now and decides to ditch you to pursue him/her instead? Do we need to establish some guidelines to monitor our use of online social networking sites? What should those guidelines be? Should you police who your partner communicates with on or off-line? The social networking site Facebook has done wonders to connect old friends, but it's also becoming a source of trouble for more and more couples. The question we want to answer on this edition of the Brother Marcus Show is why are so many of us putting more time into our social networking than into our marriages or relationships?

    Are you really a Cougar or a Sugar Daddy? Is 60 really the new 20?

    God willing, the Brother Marcus Show will attempt to captivate you again with another live edition of our show this Sunday on January 24, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. (EST). A cougar is defined as an older woman who is primarily attracted to and has sexual relationships with significantly younger men. It has been said that although the term 'cougar' comes from the big-game predatory cat of the same name, the cougar connection also may allude to the wearing of animal print clothing by older and more sexually aggressive women. We will attempt to address why do we see so many older women marrying but mostly getting with younger men? What is the attraction and what can they do to ensure that their love lasts? Does she become a second momma to him or can she function and respect a man who is perhaps the same age as some of her children? Will love be enough for this relationship to survive? One of the definitions for a Sugar Daddy is a wealthy older man who gives a young woman expensive gifts in return for friendship, companionship and oft times, intimacy. Is it ok for older men who go out and get them a new young 'Tender Roni' who may be young enough to be their daughter? Why is there such a double standard? Do some older men really go through a mid-life crisis? Outside of the bedroom, what can a younger woman do for an older man? Can Viagra solve all the problems? Can money really buy love from a younger woman?

    Are you trying to play God in someone else's life?

    God willing, the Brother Marcus Show will return this weekend on Sunday January 17, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. (EST) with another profound show that will examine the question, “Are you trying to play God in someone else’s life?” During this show, we will discuss why we have a tendency to try to be everything to people instead of encouraging them to see beyond us. We intend to discuss the term, “God complex”. Do some of us have this need in us to actually be worshipped and to be seen as all powerful in the lives of others? Why is our motive for doing, what we do for people so important in 2010? Why do so many people in leadership often end up abusing their power and position of authority? How do the “leaders” allow the people they serve to make a fool out of them? Why don’t and why won’t we lead the people that seem like they depend on us soooo much, to the reality of the only power that is absolutely sustaining our lives? Do we even recognize Him anymore, by whose power, we do all that we do? On the other hand, why do so many of us look to people to do for us what we could get up and do for our own selves? Why do we love to make it seem like we are so helpless and powerless? What is wrong with our hands or feet, or our able bodies? Why can’t we take up our bed and walk in 2010? We will get into all of these things and offer five character traits that pathetic people manifest for everyone to consider and try on our persons. Please join us for one of the most liberating, thought provoking and entertaining two hours on Sunday evening! We will be joined by one of the most noted psychologists in the country, Dr. Joshua W. Murfree! This is a very insightful brother that will aid us in understanding these issues!

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has said that, "Court means present your case. And let us cross examine the evidence to see whether I should walk with you. Sisters, you've got more to lose than him. Take it to court. Sisters I have watched all my life and I’ve seen women play on men and I’ve seen men play on women. And I am hurt inside. Hurt to see how quick we lie to each other. Play games with the emotions of each other."

    Where has the intimacy gone in our relationships? Do men really view women like pieces of chicken?

    God willing, the Brother Marcus Show will return this weekend on Sunday January 10, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. (EST) with another deep show! Despite the raw attitudes espoused in this so called culture today, many people are saying in 2010 what they really want is an intimate love relationship. But all we have to do is turn on our local radio stations and we will hear explicit songs and lyrics about sex and how today's men and women supposedly want it. R & B Superstar, Usher, recently sang that he wanted to make love in the club. Another Superstar sings that after getting with him in a bedroom some poor deluded woman will think that he has invented sex. And of course the number one soul singer, Beyonce, entices all the men on her latest video singing about a video phone I think. I really didn’t catch the words! Most of the sexually charged music today seems to suggest that the people like their relationships like they like their fast food, “Fast and hot with no strings attached.” This week the Brother Marcus Show will explore just what in the world is intimacy? Is there really such a thing as romance and intimacy in 2010 or are those just things of the past? Is this all the man’s fault or do women share some of the blame? "Do men really view women like pieces of chicken?" i.e. A man might say something like 'I'm a breast man or a leg man'. Are men really “empty emotionally” or do women just not understand how men think in today’s times? Join us as we welcome our guest panelist for the evening, Ebony S. Muhammad, Certified Thanatologist, who has recently published, “The Black Male Perspective on Intimacy.” We intend to have a very spirited discussion on the fundamentally different way men and women view sex, intimacy and love.
