In this episode of Concrete Genius Pod, Sauce Mackenzie goes all the way in—no fluff, no tap dancing.

We talk about sexual discipline and power, and why Black men in high-visibility positions can’t afford sloppy boundaries. From the Michigan coaching situation to the way scandals get handled differently depending on who you are, we break down the real-world consequences of impulse, ego, and “I’m untouchable” thinking.

Then we shift to the NFL and media narratives—why a white quarterback’s frustration gets framed as “honest” and “human,” while a Black quarterback saying the same thing gets labeled “ungrateful.” We also talk relationships, access, audacity, and why understanding the rules is more important than being emotional about them.

If you’re trying to build wealth, protect your name, and move smarter in a world that doesn’t grade everybody equally—this one’s for you.

Big Sauce breaks down the truth behind the mistreatment of Shedeur Sanders — and why the outrage from fans, parents, and coaches is soaked in hypocrisy that nobody wants to confront.

This isn’t just about the Browns, the NFL, or Kevin Stefanski.
This is about AAU coaches, high school coaches, middle school coaches, youth coaches, ADs, principals, math teachers pretending to coach, and grown men playing politics with other people’s kids.

Sauce explains:

Why Kevin Stefanski’s decision-making is personal, petty, and ego-driven

How Shedeur reflects every kid punished because adults hate their father

Why Black folks pick and choose which injustice they care about

How favoritism, bedroom politics, fraternities, sororities, and cliques ruin kids’ opportunities

How some coaches mirror the SAME behavior they criticize in Stefanski

Why Shedeur’s peace, discipline, and faith are keeping him afloat

How youth sports is FULL of “Kevin Stefanskis” destroying confidence and futures

This episode is about accountability, fairness, and calling out the gatekeepers who cry for Shedeur while sabotaging the kids they coach.

If you’ve ever seen a child get mistreated because of a parent’s reputation, jealousy, or politics — you’ll understand this message.

Concrete Genius Podcast | Hosted by Sauce MacKenzie (@concretegeniuspod)

In this episode, Sauce walks you straight through the blueprint that broke Black America on purpose — from highways cutting through Black neighborhoods to crack, mass incarceration, and the removal of fathers and discipline from the home.

This ain’t a conspiracy rant. It’s history, lived experience, and game from the barbershop to the block:

• How interstate highways were strategically dropped through thriving Black communities
• Projects, FHA loans, redlining, and displacement that stole Black wealth and stability
• The shift from Black teachers, Black schools, Black leadership… to busing and cultural confusion
• How crack, trades disappearing, and Clinton/Biden crime bills fed mass incarceration
• Why taking away parents’ right to discipline destroyed respect, focus, and consequences
• How every new “movement” copies Black struggle but never protects Black people
• The truth about LeBron, Black athletes with Black wives, and why the media really hates them
• What we MUST do now: reading to our kids, rebuilding Black family structure, re-teaching culture, history, and emotional toughness

This episode is for Black people who want to understand how we got here and how we fix it — and for anybody from other races who actually wants to listen instead of project.

In this episode of Concrete Genius Pod, Sauce breaks down the viral Alabama story of the “Teacher of the Year” caught whooping her son on camera — and the internet fallout that followed.

Sauce digs into the REAL conversation:

• Should parents still have the right to discipline their kids?
• Where is the line between discipline and abuse?
• Why the 70s/80s generation handled consequences differently
• Why today’s kids lack respect, emotional toughness, and boundaries
• How removing parental authority changed EVERYTHING
• Why “talking it out” doesn’t work for every child
• Why consequences made earlier generations more grounded, resilient, and ambitious

Sauce also breaks down how:

• Kids who got whooped understood respect and hierarchy
• Consequences created discipline, emotional stability, and drive
• Taking parental power away opened the door to tantrums, entitlement, Ritalin, confusion, and chaos
• Society became softer as consequences disappeared

This is raw, honest, and necessary.
No political angle. No race agenda.
Just a real look at discipline, parenting, and the dangers of a consequence-free generation.

On this episode of Concrete Genius Pod, Sauce sits down with his brother Real G (Terrell) for a raw conversation about God, growth, prison, manhood, and saving young Black boys from throwing their lives away.

They start light, talking about how the weed game fell off down South and how legalization up North flipped the market. But then it gets real:

• Real G breaks down how he went from Gary in the crack era to prison, to now serving in the church, leading men’s meetings and mentoring youth.
• He talks about breaking generational curses, building integrity, and teaching young men about credit, work ethic, morals, and principles.
• Sauce and Real G tell real prison stories and explain how one emotional decision can cost you 20+ years.
• They break down felony murder in plain language so young dudes understand that riding along, holding the door, or being in the wrong car can still get you a murder charge.
• They give young men real game on staying free: learning trades, cutting hair, HVAC, painting, pressure washing, and hustling legally instead of chasing a fake street image.
• They talk about finding the right woman – a solid, God-fearing, feminine woman who believes in you, helps you grow, and doesn’t compromise her morals.
• Sauce shares why real toughness is staying with your family, paying your bills, and being present – not sitting in a cell for pride.

This one is for young kings thinking about the streets, for OGs who been there, and for anybody trying to turn pain into purpose.

On this episode of @ConcreteGeniusPod, Sauce Mackenzie goes deep on what it really means to protect your kids in 2025—especially Black boys with athletic gifts.

Sauce breaks down how schools, coaches, non-profits and “community leaders” will ignore a Black child who needs help reading, but line up like vultures the moment he’s 6’4”, 265 with D1 potential. He talks about parents being told to “step back” once the kid becomes valuable, how predators and scammers flood youth sports, and why the least “talented” kids still deserve the most love and resources.

From fake mentors, non-profit scammers, and horny “coaches” chasing single moms… to his own history of checking predators in jail, Sauce pulls the mask off a lot of so-called “for the kids” movements. He also gives game on how to find high-character mentors, protect your child’s future, and stand on business as a parent without letting people tell you how to raise your son.

Later in the episode, Sauce pivots into:

• Real business game – why your logo, website and brand are your “smile” and first impression
• Content hustle – why consistency beats fancy equipment every time
• Rant on pennies & cashless society – what losing change really means
• NBA betting jewels – three-leg parlays, discipline, and how beginners should really bet
• Kevin Gates & age-gap relationships – calling out the double standards between how men vs. women get judged for the same thing

If you’re a Black parent, coach, mentor, or entrepreneur, this one is part sermon, part warning, and part masterclass in protecting your kids and your brand.
