Count Time Now Podcast Ep. 17- Street Authority Part 1

Fred Ward hosts ECGG “the Mayor” and Meech Home at the “Learning Station” to salute their recent Fed Talk episode and dig into what they learned inside the system, influence in the community, and the responsibility that comes with it. The conversation covers second chances after doing time, collateral sanctions that block jobs and licenses, and how harsh policies like “three strikes” impact people trying to rebuild. They connect these issues to American history, power, and division of labor, then shift to solutions—reaching young people through respected young leaders and building a Black-owned economic base in East Cleveland, envisioning a Black Wall Street-style Euclid Avenue rooted in unity and supporting Black businesses. The episode ends with how to follow Fed Talk (Instagram: FedTalk00, YouTube: FedTalk101) and a preview of Meech’s spinoff project, General Conversation. 00:00 Welcome to Count Time Now: Fred Ward brings the crew in 01:03 Shoutouts & Dante Ferguson’s interview + book plug 02:08 ‘Learning Station’ vibes—setting the tone before the real talk 02:32 Fed Talk breakdown: prison hierarchy, systems, and growth 03:52 Influence in the city: the party story & responsibility of a platform 05:18 Where the respect comes from: East Cleveland roots & standing on business 08:08 Politics after prison: collateral sanctions, second chances, and ‘three strikes’ 12:40 System wasn’t built for us: 13th Amendment, history, and America’s corruption 15:35 Power over money: building community and stopping the cycle 17:10 Time changes everything: old beefs, consequences, and a near-miss story 19:54 Fed segregation story: cell politics, ‘checking in,’ and a brewing conflict 21:55 Time Heals: Letting Go of Prison Beef & Seeing the Bigger Picture 22:16 Street Mentality vs Fatherhood: What Really Matters Outside 23:16 Reaching the Youngsters: Can OGs Help Them Skip the Hard Lessons? 25:01 The Real Cost of Catching a Case: 30–40 Years, Day-for-Day Time 26:04 Accountability & Barriers After Release: Skills, Jobs, and the 7-Year Trap 26:54 Fentanyl, the Black Market, and How Lack of Opportunity Turns Deadly 28:47 Division of Labor: Building Influence, Strategy, and a ‘Meeting of the Minds’ 33:21 Magic Wand for East Cleveland: Black Wall Street Vision & Unity Economics 35:11 Support Black Businesses: From Smoke Shops to Gas Stations—Keep Money Circulating 37:07 Closing Salutes & Call to Action: Tap Into Fed Talk and Keep the Conversation Going
