‘Sauce Mackenzie’ was born in Gary, Indiana within a community that encouraged him to pursue
his wants and desires at a young age. Unfortunately, his own recklessness would lead him into
learning the hard lessons of such a pursuit, causing him to forfeit his freedom in the early stages
of his manhood. As the deception of his will would force him to repay his debt to society behind
bars, he would formulate a plan to repay that debt in full by honoring not only the future
generation, but also his beloved mother who had passed away without ever seeing her son
make it to the right side of liberty. Today, Sauce is here to share his story on how he evolved
from a man running on empty to a man whose cup is running over. From street ordinary to
extraordinary streets, this man is an example of what it means to turn a willful error into an era
of prosperity. He is now a family man, business man, entrepreneur, coach, mentor, community
leader, volunteer, and a token to the evolution of a young black man. Prepare yourself to enter
into the mind of a strategist, and to join the conversation of how a change begins with you.

7/11 (00:41.809)
Welcome to the Concrete Genius podcast. I'm your host, the Concrete Genius, Sauce MacKenzie. I appreciate you taking this ride with me, man. Hope everybody's doing good. It's been a beautiful day, beautiful Tuesday. God is good. It's been an amazing week for me. You know what mean? Got a lot of things done, a lot of blessings happening for me right now. You know what I'm saying? So many blessings that I can't even really put them in a perspective how many blessings it is, but all I want to say is God is good. You know what mean? What they say, he who saved a wretch like me.
You know what saying? Like I've done a lot of wild things in my life. I've been on a lot of different paths, but I can always say, truthfully, God has never given up on me. And that's the message I love to convey early in the beginning of my podcast that God has never given up on me and he will never give up on you. So believe in whatever faith you have, maintain your discipline, maintain your consistency and trust in the fact that God will never give up on you.
7/11 (01:41.007)
It's a joy for me to say that. And I mean, even when I'm down, I always talk about my faith in God. I always talk about how God has done amazing things for me as a man, but to actually like, you see the cubs joint, but to actually like go through it and live it and be living testimony time and time again only speaks to the benevolence of a higher power. I could never in a million years survive all the things I've survived in life.
without God's grace walking beside me. Some of the things I've endured, some of the cases I've had, some of the places I've been, some of the things I've saw, I've had people shooting me point blank range. I've gotten out of situations that no man should probably get out of, all by the grace of God and my Lord and Savior. So with that, always say, no matter what you're doing, even if you're in the process of sinning,
Even if you're in the process of making a mistake, you can make the change. But God is waiting on you to try to make the change. When I was selling dope, I was feeling stupid. And I was having money, pocket full of cash. I was feeling stupid like, man, I got kids. They can't catch me again. You saw what saying? And I prayed and I prayed and I prayed for alternatives. And I was blessed to get a situation that allowed me to get away from that.
Just looking at my children forced me to get away from that. Looking at my woman forced me to get away from a life that could pull me away from multiple double digit years for some product. You know what mean? And I'm not speaking from the point of talking down on any young man or any man that has to hustle because I've been there. I know what it's like to refuse to want to starve. I mean, none of us want to starve.
None of us wanna be without. None of us wanna.
7/11 (03:41.768)
None of us want to go without things that we feel are necessities in life. Nobody wants to be.
7/11 (03:53.391)
A burden.
You know what mean? When you go to prison, you sometimes feel like a burden, you know? And God has saved me through all that. And then as I became a parent, I've made mistakes. As I became a husband, I've made mistakes. God has been with me through all that. As I became a father, I've made mistakes. You know what mean? I've had tense relationships with my children. And I just pray and I pray on it and I ask God to walk me through it. And he never leaves me.
He never forsakes me. You know, he never gives up on me. So with that, concretegeniusmedia .com, you know who you tapped in with, The one and only Never Leave You Lonely, Sauce MacKenzie. Get a copy of my book. The Game Changer. If you don't have it, you slacking. It's been an adventurous week for me.
I'm glad to be back. You know, I promise more consistency. This is more consistent than what I had been a previous few months, because I was really out of it.
This is still not consistent enough. You know what mean? So I want people to understand I'm still trying, even in the midst of me saying things like, hey, man, I'm coming back, I'm coming back. It still ain't consistent enough as I like it. So for those who've bored with me, thank you. As I always thank you in the beginning of the podcast. But man, I got some great news this week. know, things are going good.
7/11 (05:33.095)
Salute the kid, salute the dream, salute the vision, salute the initiative, salute the wherewithal to never give up, salute the fight, salute to all the.
concrete geniuses who rose from the concrete salute to you.
When one of us win, we all win. Because the door's being kicked down. And I'm grateful. I'm thankful. I won't elaborate too much on the news yet, because it's not my place right now. But trust me, some great things are happening for me. And I feel good. know, it's the end of August. It's been an eventful summer. I've dealt with a lot over the summer, just focusing on my family. I had to make some business decisions, some work decisions.
pray for the health of some loved ones. still got some loved ones going through some things right now, so I pray for you. And just, it was a transformation summer. Last summer was just a fun summer. All I did was have fun. Whole summer. Summer before that, all I did was have fun. This summer, I made some transformations that will pay off for the next five, 10 years, generations, my kids, kids, grandkids. So it's been a transformative summer.
Transformation isn't always easy. Transformation can be difficult, it is difficult. But when you commit to transformation, you commit to the discipline of the grind, of the desire to change, of the desire to be free from whatever's holding you. You know, and a lot of things hold you in bondage. The choices you made, the things you're going through right now, where you at in your life as a man, a lot of things hold you in bondage. So you have to go through a transformation, and transformations start with discipline.
7/11 (07:27.951)
Never be afraid to be disciplined. Never be afraid to be different. Your uniqueness comes in your ability to be different. And you different. Nobody's like you. You're not like anybody else. So lean on your ability to be different. Had a great week on Facebook. Talked a lot of shit. Great week on social media.
7/11 (07:52.215)
I get to cracking my jokes, I be in my bag. I be having people like, man, don't give away, you too funny. Don't give it all away, but it's just humor, making somebody laugh. You know what saying? I've had people be like, man, I was depressed about my mother and my father. I read your Facebook posts and I laughed. I ain't laughed that hard in years. It'll be somebody I ain't talked to since 10th grade. But hearing things like that, man, it's one in a million.
You know what I'm saying? It's Larry Graham. So I'm forever grateful for the ability to make people smile. But one thing that I am intrigued by, and thank you for bearing with the introduction, one thing I am intrigued by is...
the emotions brought on by Caitlin Clark.
For those of you don't know, part -time, well majority of the time I live in Indiana. I have a home in Indiana. You know, I have a lot of clients and I do a lot of business in Indiana. That's where I'm from. Born and raised, I love it. Faults, flaws, warts and all, you can't take Indiana out of me. I was...
on the range with monsters and I'm banging Indiana like it's a set, like it's a nation. So I love this place. I take everything to come with it. And I also, I'm a product of the joy in basketball. I love basketball. I love watching it. I love playing it. I love studying it. I love watching out of bounds plays. I love, I'm really a big fan of elite passers.
7/11 (09:39.377)
people who can dominate the game by scoring, but by mainly passing. Guys like Jason Kidd, Ray John Rondo, Rod Strickland, those kind of guys, double digit assist people, those people have always intrigued me. And in that same vein, I'm intrigued by Caitlin Clark. I really love her game. I think her game is explosive.
I think her vision, the way she gets the ball up the court immediately, I think that's very transcendent for young ladies who want to play the game behind her. I think her ability to pass the ball is what separates her.
And I made a statement saying that I feel like she was a top five player in the NBA. You may agree, you may not agree. But what I find somewhat puzzling is that a lot of people...
7/11 (10:38.299)
How do I say? A lot of people, they got a problem with that statement. Or on a bigger stage, and what I really want to tap into is that a lot of people feel like as a black man, I can't really enjoy your game. You know, I get passive aggressive questions. I get downright questions in my DM like, bro, how you, you need for that white girl? And I've always been under the impression that sports is the one place I can get away.
7/11 (11:10.587)
Now I say that with a caveat. I know it's GMs and head coaches and people in basketball that probably should deserve a shot. That's not the discussion I'm talking about. I'm talking about as an Indiana born American citizen having a passion for the game of basketball as a black man, I appreciate watching Katelyn Carr play. Now, I also must qualify this for the people who lack a large amount of understanding.
Just because I love watching Caitlin Clark play doesn't mean I don't love watching A .J. Wilson play. It doesn't mean I don't love watching Jewel Lloyd or Jackie Young play. It doesn't mean I don't love watching Angel Reese or Kennedy Carter play. I love them all, just like I love Cheryl Swoops and Tina Thompson and I like Rekia Jackson. But being in Indiana, being a fan of the game,
a student of magnetism.
Why is it an issue for certain elements of the black community for me to like Caitlin Clark? I think she's explosive. I think she handles things with a lot of maturity. I think that the people, the things that people try to label as immaturity are just passion from any basketball player has been somewhat petulant. You know what mean? I don't care if you're talking about Mike or Kobe, any great basketball player. You gotta be an asshole to be great, somewhat.
But.
7/11 (12:47.353)
As a guy who's been pretty much aggressively black my whole life, you know what saying? I'm from Gary, Indiana. I was raised in blackness. All my teachers, I went to school with all black people.
I've never had a problem adjudicating my blackness. It is who I am. But I also don't meet people on the basis of solely their race. That's where my intelligence kicks in. I think you judge people by the connection you make with them. You're looking at eyes and if you see a genuine personality, I think you connect with them. So the fact that I wasn't raised in an environment
that was over -monestly or over -zealously monitored or over -zealously I had to be on. Like growing up in Gary, I mean, I knew I was black. Everybody was black. I watched Eyes on the Prize. I Jesse Jackson give his speech. So I understood I was black. So this is the first time in my life talking about Kaden Clark that I've ever been challenged or even somewhat passively aggressively.
attacked about my blackness and I feel like that is really, really mind
7/11 (14:10.378)
It's just basketball. I couldn't imagine growing up in the 80s saying, I like Larry Bird. Dudes probably would have to burn my house down. I mean...
We gotta pick and choose when we wanna involve race.
7/11 (14:27.62)
We can't be selective.
when we want to involve race, when we want to be Marcus Gardy. Either you Marcus Garvey or you not. And I'm extremely pulled back. I've my resume is solidified. mean, I've started programs. I've helped kids. I've paid out of pocket for kids to play basketball. I've raised several sons as I would my own several children. You know, I've spoken out against issues that affect the black community. I never shy in my
Blackness, I never shuck and jive, but the first time somebody questioned my blackness, it was about Caitlin Clark, my appreciation for her game. So that's somewhat confusing to me, but it's also highlighting that.
A lot of people got trauma or they got frustrations in their life and they voice it through their displeasure of something you may like.
plays good basketball. I didn't come up here to do a think piece on the civil rights movement, because I want to watch the Indiana Fever play basketball. I just want to watch the Fever play basketball. That's where I'm from. The most exciting player in the game plays in my home state, in my city that I reside in. Why wouldn't I enjoy that? Like, all I'm saying is this, if you're so black that you offended by black people not
7/11 (15:59.151)
appreciate Kena Clark. You better be self -employed, my guy.
7/11 (16:06.513)
You better be self -employed. You better be a homeowner. I better not see you mingling with nobody white. Nigga, I better not see you eating white bread. Like if you'd had black, cause that level of blackness, I don't get it. Especially if I ain't never seen that from a certain monolith of people that I know to have DM me or question me when I be out.
Cause a lot of times when I post, I post them and then people question me about them or not question like on some bully shit, but like people want to conversate about what I think. And I'm never offended by that because I like expounding on whatever I'm convicted of, know, you know, whatever I think, whatever I say it. So.
7/11 (16:55.973)
Man, I hope you went to HBCU. know, if I can't watch Kaylin Clark and say she top five because she white, if that's your stance, hey, more power to you. But all I'm saying, bro, I hope you ain't got no white boss, no white supervisor. You know, I hope you ain't got to send out no email asking nobody for a day off. That's white. I mean, shit. No white landlord, no nothing. So all I'm saying is.
We got to be realistic, you know what saying? Like, I hope you ain't ever cheered for no white player that was on your son's team or your daughter's team. No, I hope you ain't ever shook hands with no white coach because I can't like Katelyn Clark. You see my point? Now, I'm not overzealous with the fandom. I'm just appreciative of the game. I'm not on no crusade to say that a white player is better than...
these type of players or she's so good cause she white. know, my wife black is Weezy Jefferson along with any woman I've ever dated in my life. Nothing but the Coco. You know, shit call me.
7/11 (18:15.0)
I'm in love with the cocoa like that, you know?
7/11 (18:21.68)
So I think it's a very fascinating dynamic for so many black men to get enraged.
about Caitlin Clark. But.
7/11 (18:37.574)
If you're getting enraged off Katelyn Clark, I don't know who you voting for, because you can't vote for Trump, and Kamala got a white husband, so you can't vote for Kamala, so you gotta talk to me about this new all -black everything dynamic that's taking over the world since I said I like Katelyn Clark. I did not know all this.
7/11 (19:03.377)
Kanye West type shit I say during the year, I did not know Caitlin Clark being the top five player would allow me to those type of DMs, those type of conversations, and spark those type of comments. It's just hoop, man. It's hoop. It ain't life, bro. You're not gonna work out your racial problems, your racial frustrations, being mad about Caitlin Clark. Just like you ain't gonna wipe away whatever issues you got with black people going OD for.
Just, it's basketball, man. Can we please, like, just enjoy the orange and white ball going through the net, bro? I don't care who shifts it, man. I like Kelsey Plum. I've been a fan of Kelsey Plum for a minute. I like Kelsey Plum game. Nobody accused me of, well, how you like that winger? I like Kelsey Plum. She can hoop. I like her spunk. I like her demeanor. Why doesn't she incite the same type of...
curiosity or defending of all things the Negro American. You know what saying? Like I just don't get it. So, and let's get into the meat of the numbers. Kaylin Clark in her rookie year after playing a full season at Iowa. And I know players go overseas. That's four years of college who she have the 17 .8 points, 5 .8 rebounds, 8 .3 assists. That's my fucking number.
1 .4 steals. So that's, I'm giving you 18, I'm giving you six boards, that's six possessions, and I'm giving you eight and a half dimes. So eight dimes is 20 points. Three threes, five twos, that's 19 points. It's eight dimes, man. I love a passer. I love somebody that can dominate the game.
that is so efficient enough to say, whenever you're open, I'm giving you the ball and I'm still averaging 18. I love it. I love passing when Jason Kidd did it and took the next two straight finals. I love passing when Rajon Rondol was getting 20, 20 and eight. I love passing when Westbrook was getting 20, 20, 20. I love passing when James Harden was getting 45 and 13. Now, the scoring side on Harden was kind of OD, but still the passing.
7/11 (21:28.205)
ability. I love it. mean, Rod Strickland is one of my favorite players. I love players who can dominate the ball by sharing the ball, dominate the game, excuse me, by sharing the ball. And I put Caitlin Clark in that same category. I feel like she's transcended. I feel like she's the modern version of, what was her name? Pinchero, the one who to the Sacramento Manor. That's what I feel like.
She's got swag, So if me complimenting a white basketball player offends you, I think you need to see a therapist. Or I think you need to talk about why that bothers you. And you can stick to your guns, but you need to really have a conversation with yourself and understand it's not that serious. A lot of us just want to enjoy the game.
7/11 (22:29.787)
And you know the crazy thing, and I said this before, I wanted to doubt her. she's over right. When you black, in my opinion, it's natural to think that the white players overhyped. And I want everybody in America to notice white, black people, whatever. Most black people are going to underestimate a white kid. You got to prove it. Okay, cool. But she's proved it. So let's move on. Let's enjoy.
Cause the numbers, I'm telling you, the numbers only gonna get better. The fandom's only gonna get better. She's been, the popularity, the amount of money that the WNBA is about to get due to her, the change in lifestyle, private planes. I celebrate that, man. Somebody kick the door down, run in there. Grab you something. Why you like me? I had the combination. She ain't had to kick it. Hey, the door kicked down, bro. I'm in here, let me get this 85 inch. You know what I'm saying? That's how I look at things.
And maybe I'm blessed to be in a position to do that. I used to be a little angrier, but not that angry.
7/11 (23:41.253)
You know, I want to pray for Indianapolis, man. I want God to cover Indianapolis. I want God to cover Gary. want God to everybody in my radius, but specifically just speaking where I live, Indianapolis. I pray, and I say this a lot, but I pray that we can somehow come together and stop the violence. It's a lot of active men in the community that are helping.
It's a lot of community centers, it's a lot of programs. Everybody's out here trying, man. No one community activist is greater than the other, we're all trying. But we just gotta try harder. We gotta recruit more, we gotta save more kids, we gotta save more people. I work in a middle school, and it's a nice drive for me.
So, and I don't make crazy money, but I'm blessed to touch children in a community that need it, that look like me, to impact lives for the rest of their lives.
I got, I'm straight, you know what mean? I'm comfortable. So that's my mission. But we all got to do our part, man, because...
Gangster life is polarized in the media. Violence is polarized in the media. We're just synthesized of violence.
7/11 (25:12.811)
I've seen a couple of people die in front of me and that stain it never leaves your brain. But even then, I still had the luxury of having to see it. Now in today's society, can be scrolling on Instagram and see four people get killed. You can see a mass shooting on Instagram reels.
I mean, so violence is really desynthesized. It wasn't a Grand Theft Auto when I grew up. It wasn't a...
call of duty when I grew up. So you had to first learn how to not be terrified of a gun, pick up a gun, decide to shoot a gun and still have the mental capacity to say, this gun comes with a lot of responsibility and power. And this is for the hardcore gangsters born in the 70s and 80s. We weren't to synthesize the violence, we had to grow to become violent.
Now it's different. Are they 12? They getting access to Draco's and switches. They making switches. You know, they buying bullets. They scamming. 13, 14. So we gotta get active in the community. We gotta pray. And then some of us older people, we gotta start realizing like,
Ain't no do -overs. I can understand if you're 17, you think you get a do -over, you get popped. Growing up in the ghetto would do that to you. I was him.
7/11 (27:02.65)
I know a lot of dudes is him.
7/11 (27:07.494)
When you're 34, 35, 26, 27, couple of shorties, you gotta realize there ain't no do -overs, Ain't nobody coming back. And if you are gonna be out here wildin', bro, handle your business, bro. Get you a lawyer. Every time you make some money, give your lawyer $300 a week.
7/11 (27:34.277)
I wanna repeat that, if you hustlin' bro, you in a drug gang, you scamming, you doing anything illegitimate.
find you a lawyer. Say, look, I'm gonna give you $1
7/11 (27:49.892)
We gonna let it sit.
7/11 (27:55.12)
for five years.
For five years, this $1 ,500 is a deposit if anything happens. Or I give you $100 a month for two years. Anything I get, 250, give him 250. But anything I get that I give you when I need you, you gotta be right there.
I didn't put up three grand. Hey, that morning when I go to court, you should be there.
You like you're be out here in the streets, man. Get you some life insurance. Like.
Ain't no way you should be out here riding big boy and then something happen to you and people got to fry fish and start a GoFundMe. You know, handle your business. You know, like have a plan.
7/11 (28:52.994)
even when you in the trenches.
have a way out, several ways out. Don't just commit to the trenches.
commit to getting out of trenches.
7/11 (29:10.579)
And some people never gonna leave.
7/11 (29:14.926)
And God bless them too, but for the ones that really come from that shit, see it's a difference from people who...
immersed and love the gangster and love the street lifestyle than people who live the street lifestyle and really seen some powerful shit in your own home. Like people who really seen some traumatic shit when their doors was closed in their own house. Them people want to get far away from the bullshit as possible.
7/11 (29:48.134)
Come on, man, like.
My toughness, I don't have to question my toughness. So I can live next door to a pilot.
I can go to Whole Foods.
I love that shit, man. That's like two different lives to me. You know, I can't, I got lawyers, bail bondsmen, realtors, architects, CPAs, know, dispensary owners. I got friends that do so many things because it's a testament of the power I had in me, starting from humble beginnings. And you want to talk about poor.
talking Ronald Reagan cheese line freezing cold pour lights off pour gas off pour no hot water pour no water you know but I never let that define who I wanted to be so I'm asking us stop the violence take a minute to be the mature person in the room
7/11 (30:59.782)
And then you know what? Some of you niggas just gotta learn how to feel a vibe, Like, I ain't never been no scary ass nigga, bro. Nigga fuck with me, we going to war. But if I feel the scene of the crowd is getting bad, I'm outta there, bro. I'm outta there. I'm not hanging around where niggas trying to be tough. And I'm tough. Fuck I look like proven I'm tough for 10 years ago, 20 years ago.
When niggas get ignorant, you gotta have the common sense to leave. And a lot of people don't have that, unfortunately. They, man, it's lit out here. Boy, it can be lit, but you also got a radar in your head like, okay, if you really, this group of niggas don't like this group of niggas. It's 12 of them, it's 18 of them, and they've been staring at each other for five minutes. I'm out, I see y 'all. Deuces.
that nigga got loud. That nigga got loud. That dude just left. I'm leaving.
Man, I done been in spots bro, and that's why I always don't really drink until I get somewhere. I done been in spots where dudes who
I know right
7/11 (32:21.041)
They feel in a certain way and they on that liquid courage. And there's no doubt in my mind. I could really go out here and could smash this dude like a twig and three of his homies. And I'm riding with some shit that's gonna make a motherfucker bring a lunch. But why? Why? My gangsta solidified. I ain't gotta prove my gangster to you. You don't have to prove your toughness to nobody. Go home.
to your woman. Go home to your children.
7/11 (33:00.272)
Go home to live the fight another day and just let all that shit go, Let that anger go. I beg of you.

Let's talk about that.
You ever been like the good guy, you know, the homie, big bro, the one that come through all the time. You good? Because I'm good to people. And then when it goes down and they do you wrong, and then you see them and they mad at you, why you mad at me for?
7/11 (34:43.878)
You played your hand, you laid down at them triple threes and you lost when all you had to do was keep it real with me. And I'm not a guy to wish bad on nobody. Even if you cross me, because this is my philosophy, when you cross me, I appreciate the times we had when it was love. No man owes me nothing, right?
So if you wake up tomorrow and you like, ain't fucking with John no more. I'm gonna be like, damn, cuz. But whatever your brain told you, I respect it.
But if you do that...
And you know I'm that sauce.
7/11 (35:36.612)
that good sauce you could put on anything. Why you mad?
7/11 (35:44.88)
You know what I'm saying? Like, listen, I've left situations on my own doing and the situation be popping. I'm like, damn, that could have been me. But when I see the person with the situation, I give them a hug. And I'm proud of you. I knew this was in you.
still winning. That's how you gotta be.
Stop, like.
7/11 (36:13.383)
Stop being so hyper aggressive about the choices you made. Stop being so hyper aggressive and disrespectful to the people that you crossed. See, I ain't no nigga could cross. Once you do something good to me, for me, you my brother, you always my brother. Sometimes you may go astray, we may not talk the same, but I'm never gonna hate you, because I'm appreciate if you show me love from...
January 2016 to December of 2019 and then we don't talk no more. It's love. I might not have got through them three years without the love you gave me. So why am I bitter? But all I ask on the flip side, my G.
7/11 (37:06.5)
All I ask on the flip side, my G, is that you don't be mad at me when my star keep rising. And that's really the big issue. The big issue is when a lot of people do you dirty, they think your star gonna dim. And when your star don't dim, they hate you for it. Don't hate me, hate the choice you made. Hate the fact that...
I gave you all of me and kept it real and you didn't keep it real back. And I'm still out here keeping it real, looking good, popping. I got it shining.
That's life sometimes. I'm not bitter, why are you? You the viola -dee. The viola -tor. I'm the viola -dee.
be mad just...
7/11 (38:05.799)
Bring that shit out, my boy.
7/11 (38:09.85)
homie, classmate, friend, whatever. Whatever the times was, man, don't be bitter. Cause a lot of times like, I be honest, I miss people. Yeah, I would be disingenuous. This wouldn't be the the concrete genius podcast if I didn't tell you I didn't miss people. I miss people that's done me dirty. I miss them. Conversations was good. Shit was good, but.
I keep on driving up the hill though, cause I'm the one on the wheel. You know, but if I see him and his love, I'll just love back. If I see you and his fuck me, then fuck you too. Either way, I'm going to the crib. I got some mushroom stuff, macaroni, ravioli upstairs, know, I'm vegetarian. So I'm not tripping on none of that. Stop the violence, stop the hate.
Focus on yourself, get you some goals. And I gotta get better. You know what I'm saying? Hey, but look, concretegeniusmedia .com, by the way. Get a copy of my book, The Game Changer. love you.

And man, I come from misery, but I refuse to be miserable.
7/11 (40:13.284)
I come from pain, but I refuse to live with it.

I'm still brave.
Man, we gotta talk about Indianapolis, man. I gotta.
We're going to do a little something different, I want to talk about what's going on in Indianapolis. I want to talk about some things going on, especially like a lot of child molestation shit going on. we got the screen up. We got the Fox News screen up, Former Ben Davis, Cascade High School wrestling coach, arrested for child seduction. I hate fucking pedophiles. I despise pedophiles. Why are you working at a school knowing you a fucking pedophile? Death to you all.
guillotine to you all.
7/11 (41:22.278)
The worst thing you can do is ruin the innocence of a baby. Death to pedophiles. A former wrestling coach at Ben Davis High School in Indianapolis and Cascade High School in Hendricks County has been arrested for child seduction. Quinn Harris, 27, was arrested Monday at a home in Plainfield on an active arrest warrant charging him with child seduction.
Fox 59 confirmed Tuesday that Harris was a wrestling coach at Ben Davis High School and Cascade High School intermittently for the last five years. So intermittently means sometime. So he might've been a volunteer, something like that. Harris has since been booked into Harris County, Hendricks County jail and is now being held without bond. The Sheriff's office said that although local deputies made the arrest, the criminal investigation was handled by Avon police. While no specifics on what Harris is accused of have been confirmed,
MSD of Wayne Township said officials are not aware of any allegations involving Ben Davis students. So thank God for that. He knew not to fuck with black kids. But look at his face. That's the face of a pedophile. Central Louisiana, they castrating boys.
Again, here we go again.
We're gonna go home.

IMPD Sergeant accused in trading child porn tied to covering his tracks using investigating knowledge court docs reveal. Court documents reveal an Indianapolis police sergeant accused of sharing dozens of files of child sex abuse material online attempted to cover his tracks using knowledge gained from his time as an investigator in internal affairs unit.
7/11 (43:26.118)
Javid Richards faces 12 preliminary council child exploitation, all level four felonies. Man, you know how many dudes he probably done put in jail for bullshit, and he got a hard drive full of kiddie porn? Man, send this nigga to Uzbekistan. Once a hero. Sergeant Javin Richards was once held as a hero.
earning the Medal of Valor and the Purple Heart after he was injured in a deadly gun battle on the city's east side November 15, 2015. 2016, Richards was again applauded for heroic actions at this time by the Indiana State Police. If not for Richards, state police said a crash victim would have died had the officer not leaped into action and helped turn and get her arm, which was amputated in an awful crash on I -465. I'm glad you survived.
The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said that Richards was a 12 -year veteran who was most recently assigned to the Internal Affairs Unit. There, Richards was tasked with catching cops who stepped outside the law and broke the very law that was sworn in a poll. Now, Richards is accused of doing the very same thing and using the knowledge to attempt to cover his tracks.

7/11 (44:45.732)
You know, I want to say he was a good dude, but you got some sick shit going on. Let's go to the fall. The fall of Sergeant Richards from hero cop to a lying criminal began August 6th, though no one knew it. August 6th, a detective from IMPD, Internal Crimes Against Children Units, received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
According to the CyberTip, 44 ,000 suspected child abuse material have been uploaded and shared by a Kik account with the username chaseplease.
7/11 (45:24.591)
Investigators reviewed the images of the videos and confirmed it featured young children being sexually exploited. Investigators also found that the user, Chase Pleas, was sharing illicit material with other users in group chats. But Chase Pleas, whom police would eventually identify as Richards, attempted to throw officers off his tracks by obfuscating his online presence. How did you do that? According to court documents, Richards used a Switzerland -based email service
that specializes in privacy and any encryption in order to sign up for his kick account in an attempt to cover up his transgressions. You knew you were breaking the

Richard Zalco connected to out of state servers in Chicago via Toronto company to upload the illegal child porn images to his kick account. He added yet another layer of separation by using a VPN based out of California to connect the server. Now, this is very important for hood niggas that don't like porn, child porn, not the deviants. But it's a very important lesson here.
outside of the porn, forget the fact this nigga was a sociopath. You using your phone, set up drug deals, set up scams, set up hits, set up motherfucking getting your baby mama jump, getting your baby daddy jump. Stop fucking sharing your fucking phone, Them folks can see everything, bro. Being a criminal in 2024 gotta be fucking exhausting.

7/11 (47:26.896)
They got it! They got it! They got it!
7/11 (47:43.056)
Got him. Court records show investigators didn't use Richard's own body cam to trace him back to his apartment on the day of the uploads to Kit.
7/11 (47:56.134)
Police said at 320 a Richard's body cam arrived at his apartment. 18 minutes later is when the first reported login on his KIK account occurred from the Spectrum IP address associated with the same apartment. Nick, you live in an apartment? Nick, you police? Richard then reportedly switched to his out -of -state IP address to upload the child sex abuse material, but investigators said he slipped up at 813 a perhaps accidentally uploaded two files from his Spectrum home, entering that IP address.
before realizing and switching back to a VPN out of state.
Court documents showed that after police gained access to his KIK account, investigators found messages sent by Richard's account with other users where they discussed the trading and participated in trading images of videos of children. What you got, Richard asked one user. Everything they answered. Police ended up applying the search warrants related to all of Richard's digital accounts, including his email. Court records show police found one instance of Richardson logging into the Chicago -based server.
from his personal email, the same server company that was tied to the Kik account uploads.
7/11 (49:31.738)
We have a problem.
7/11 (49:38.458)
Not only do we have a problem with violence, we have a problem with people who abuse children sexually. These people must be held to the fire and held accountable at all times.
It's your duty as a citizen, as a person, as a man, as a woman, as a human, regardless of your race, to protect, protect, excuse me, the innocence of children. ConcreteGeniusMedia .com, man, you here. And we tapped in.

Yeah, I'm not happy about that man. You know, you got to pedophile police. That's bad.
And you know, honestly, cops, the majority of cops ain't pedophile, nigga. Like I got some shit to discuss about cops, but most of them niggas ain't fucking with kids. You know what I'm saying? So this nigga was an outlier, but still, nigga, he got away for so long. But I give him credit for catching him. Let's check out what we got here.
any woman charged with dealing drugs resulting in death after juvenile overdose.
7/11 (51:09.2)
I ain't talking about no niggas. Let me go back. See, one thing about me,
7/11 (51:18.512)
I will tell you, I will kick that fly shit bro. I will make you laugh. I will talk a little hard shit, but few rules about me. I don't report about no nigga business in Indianapolis. If a motherfucker get shot, if somebody die, somebody rob something, somebody take something, you will not hear that shit on Concrete Genius Media. Cause I'm officially
sure that these niggas is retarded. So you don't want to be in retarded Indianapolis Facebook because they'll they'll fuck you up. You got to be nice to them folks. Buy them a drink, leave them alone and stay the fuck out of their business. Niggas show me pages where shit going on motherfuckers talking shit. Don't even show me the page nigga. I don't even want to accidentally like shit. Don't leave no laughing emojis.
Don't leave no crying emojis. You may get away with a prayer emoji and gone about your business. I don't discuss it. See, the thing about being a real nigga is understanding other people as real niggas too. I'm not discussing who got shot last week, this week. I'ma say pray for everybody, but I'm never getting into the specifics of Nan Case, because that is not Nan bit of my business.
And that is how you become a concrete genius. By minding your business. Stay with me now. This is Heavy Game. Because when you talk about people on the internet, it's a fraction of people that want to see you in real life and talk about what you said on the internet. So if you wouldn't say whatever you posting standing next to somebody, don't post it. If somebody say,
Everybody from 138th Street need to die. And you like it, you're now advocating that violence towards that group of people. And it will be one person from that group of people will say, I know him. I'm gonna ask him about that. Don't be that tough. Don't be that guy. Mind your business.
7/11 (53:45.538)
That one thing about me growing up in ghetto nigga, I knew some shit that had nothing to do with me. I was blessed. That's how much trouble I got in nigga. So I feel the same way about when I see the news. Niggas get shot. I pray for niggas. But I ain't posted nothing. I'm sorry. And people hit me all the time. Talk about this case. Sorry. I can't do it. You know what mean? My responsibility is to me and my family.
Now I make you laugh. I'm gonna give you some game. Now you got a motherfucking basketball coach out here fucking up or something? let's get into it. But street shit?
I don't talk about street shit locally. I don't talk about street shit regional. And I don't talk about street shit nationally, because I be places. Handle your own street business. This is the OG podcast that sit, you know, I'm sleeping on thousand count sheets. I don't need no niggas saying, why that nigga talking about me for? No, it's a re -bob. ConcreteGeniusMedia .com
You been waiting to exhale? Exhale. It's the best podcast you refuse to tell your friends about.

See me when you see me, man. And I might get out of control too a couple of times, you know what mean? I lost a couple of times, not many times. I was almost finished. You know what saying? Because you be hearing shit like, I'm so respectful, I get disrespectful. be wanting to see why you want to disrespect me. But then I remember like, you disrespecting me because you hurt about something else. You know what I'm saying? You ain't hurt because you don't like me. You hurt because you don't like your life.
So that makes me not even acknowledge your disrespect. Just keep on shining. Keep on going up them elevators on that ass. You understand what I'm saying? Fast too. Like if elevator was going down full speed, it's going up full speed. So why would I entertain your beef? I decide who beef with me. I ignore you. I ain't gonna never beef with no real nigga because I'm gonna make sure a real nigga gonna be respected. And if a real nigga respect it...
