  • 11/18/25 4PM: Freedom of Speech
    Nov 19 2025
    Dr. Ken Harris opens Truth in the Afternoon asking, When did disagreement become a reason for violence? He reminds Truth Nation that real freedom of speech means allowing others to say things we don’t like — that’s the cost of liberty. As the conversation turns, Dr. Ken reflects on a week filled with violence and tragedy, then lightens the mood with a Thanksgiving question: Do families still eat together — and what secrets have come out at the table? Callers like Demitri weigh in on cancel culture, free speech, and the rise of AI censorship. Dr. Ken also revisits a question from the Truth Summit about why his panel was all men — and gives one honest, simple reason that says it all.

    Nov 17 2025
    Dr. Ken Harris kicks off Truth in the Afternoon by celebrating a powerful Truth Summit, shouting out his panelists, attendees, and the community that showed up to talk solutions.

But the tone turns serious as Dr. Ken addresses the surge in violence across Milwaukee and where accountability truly lies. The hour closes with a hard truth — an 18-year-old sentenced to life in prison for a double homicide. Dr. Ken asks: does punishment stop violence, or does it just mark another lost life in a city already hurting?

  • 11/14/25 4PM: Dead is Dead

    Dr. Ken Harris opens Truth in the Afternoon with breaking news — an 18-year-old student shot and killed after leaving school early. The suspect is in custody, but the tragedy reignites a larger question: how do we stop the violence? Dr. Ken urges Truth Nation to show up at tomorrow’s Truth Summit, where local superintendents will tackle these hard conversations about accountability and prevention. Listeners call in with emotion and urgency — from questions about the old TABS system that picked up truant kids to concerns over a new lockdown in West Allis. The hour ends with a sobering reminder: when you pull the trigger, there’s no reset button — dead is dead.

  • 11/14/25 5PM: Dads, Disney, and the Death of Accountability
    Nov 15 2025
    The 5 o’clock hour starts with the Top 5 @ 5 — from Disney’s $30 million-a-week standoff with Hulu to a Milwaukee County Parks suicide prevention effort and another shooting near a local high school. Dr. Ken pivots into a passionate segment on fatherhood, calling out the need for more dads to step up — because some have, but too many haven’t. A tangent about the Epstein files and even his stolen Bucks ball turns into a deeper question: do Americans still care about truth and justice anymore? He wraps up with a story about a Milwaukee woman demanding a refund from an unlicensed party venue — another small reflection of a world that’s lost its sense of responsibility. Real, raw, and relevant — that’s the Truth in the Afternoon.

    Nov 13 2025
    Dr. Ken Harris kicks off Truth in the Afternoon asking tough questions: Are we preparing our kids for the future? Do we have enough real leaders? It’s a preview of what’s to come at this weekend’s Truth Summit — informative, entertaining, and unapologetically real. The conversation turns political as Dr. Ken asks what Democrats and Republicans have truly done for Black people — and if either party deserves the loyalty they get. He reminds Truth Nation that he judges every president by their actions, not their party, and challenges the idea that Black communities never win after elections. As news breaks about Rev. Jesse Jackson’s health, Dr. Ken shares a personal memory and a message about legacy, leadership, and truth.
