About this listen

85% of inmates grew up without fathers. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley sit down with Josiah Graves to unpack how absent dads fuel violence. It’s not just guns – it’s heart issues in young men driving crime, poverty, and hate. They hit faith, family decline, and why open dialogue plus real accountability actually move the needle.
