“Fuck The Streets” isn’t disrespect—it’s growth.

On this episode of A Pod Named Kickback, No Brakes Nu and Jack break down what it really means to evolve when the very mindset that once saved you can destroy the life you’re building now.

We talk about pulling from your future self, not your past survival instincts. About knowing when to put the boat down once it’s gotten you to shore. About why the streets fed us when we were hungry—but can’t raise us when we’re trying to build.

From rappers finally saying what they’ve lived, to navigating corporate America without dragging street responses into grown-man rooms, to why real progress requires letting go—this episode is about elevation, not erasure.

If you’re still clinging to what kept you alive instead of what will help you thrive… this one’s for you.

Fuck the streets. Long live the future. Brick by brick.

On this episode of A Pod Named Kickback, No Brakes Nu’ and Jacqui dive into something we all feel but rarely talk about — real connection. Not DMs, not algorithms, not emojis… we’re talking old-school connection. Eye contact. Energy. Physical interaction. Real conversations that mean something.

We dig into how the world has shifted so far into scrolling and swiping that we barely talk anymore — not deeply, not intentionally, not romantically, not platonically. And that’s the real issue: not what the connection is based on, but the fact that most people ain’t connecting at all.

From there, we take it deeper —

• Family, legacy, and building the right business that gives the right reward

• Why we still chase the creative itch, whether it’s music or content, and how it means something different now than it did when we were younger

• And ultimately, why humans still want to be part of something real… something meaningful… even if it costs us pieces of our old identity

This ain’t just a conversation — it’s a reminder that purpose, connection, and community still matter. That’s why the Kickback exists. That’s why you pull up every week. #Kickbackers
