Episode 6  “Cause and Effect”

Episode 6 “Cause and Effect”

Author: Breakbeat Media March 18, 2022 Duration: 36:47
Wow. Things heated up in a big way on the latest episode (#5) of Snowfall, so Dave and Rick have a lot to talk about. They get into the meaning of the episode title, “The Iliad,” and give their thoughts on Cissy’s meeting with her new contact who is supposed to help with her plans to get rid of Teddy. Did she take the pen embedded with a transmitter, and if so, what did she do with it? Of course, things explode in this episode with a rash of drive-by shootings. The hosts talk about the way the cops are depicted and what it was like for Rick dealing with them himself in the 1980s. Rick confirms he once had to jump out of a car with dope and go on foot while being chased, similar to what we see happen with Franklin and Oso. Things are so wild that the hosts want to know if the show’s writers are running out of material or if they will find a clever way to make this all make sense going forward. We find out Rick has an upcoming meeting with FX. We’ll stay tuned for updates. Finally, we can’t help but remind our audiences that Breakbeat is for the culture. See you next week!

There’s the story you watched unfold on television, and then there’s the raw, unfiltered reality that inspired it. After the Snow bridges that gap entirely. This isn’t a standard recap; it’s a weekly conversation directly with the man who lived it: activist, entrepreneur, and former drug kingpin Freeway Rick Ross, whose own life provided the blueprint for the hit series Snowfall. Each episode, Ross sits down with a hip-hop mogul to unpack not just the show, but the true, staggering events behind it. You’ll hear firsthand accounts of ambition and empire-building that defy belief, tangled with CIA conspiracies and the brutal mechanics of a multi-billion dollar international drug trade. The podcast, produced by Breakbeat Media, moves beyond the screen to explore the complex legacy of that era and the person Ross became in its aftermath. It’s a rare, direct line to a chapter of history often shrouded in myth, told with the clarity and perspective that only time can provide. Tune in every Thursday for these essential conversations, where the legend finally gets to tell his own story.
