Truth In The Afternoon with Dr. Ken Harris

• 12/12/25 4PM: It's Time You Answered

  Dr. Ken opens the show reminding Truth Nation that leadership isn’t a vibe—it’s a discipline. Our lives speak through our choices, our influences shape our instincts, and we don’t rise to our goals—we fall to the level of our character. He challenges listeners to stop “performing” leadership and start becoming leaders from the inside out. As Milwaukee braces for dangerous cold, Dr. Ken urges the city to take care of one another before diving into the ongoing debate over police pursuits. A text from KaWanda sparks a mini–Pop Off Friday as Dr. Ken tackles communication failures, accountability avoidance, and chaos creators with trademark clarity. A powerful first hour with truth that hits home.

• 12/12/25 5PM: Accountability, Exploitation & The Real Motives Behind Power

  In the second hour, Dr. Ken breaks down the Top 5 @ 5, from campaign violations to Milwaukee’s $180K jail settlement. Then he asks the question shaking social media: Did 50 Cent exploit Diddy, or just play by the same rules Diddy used on others? Truth Nation weighs in, and Dr. Ken connects the dots to Trump’s push to loosen marijuana restrictions—wondering who really benefits when laws suddenly shift. With YouTube poll results showing a divided audience, Dr. Ken closes the show urging listeners to stay warm, stay aware, and stay honest about what power really looks like. A sharp, insightful hour that blends culture, politics, and truth with Dr. Ken’s signature edge.

• 12/11/15 3PM: Can You Really Stop Someone?

  Dr. Ken opens an extended edition of Truth in the Afternoon by replaying the call between Brandon from Milwaukee and Kyle — and asks Truth Nation to weigh in: Can you stop a person who’s already decided what they’re going to do? As the YouTube poll lights up, Dr. Ken reflects on his upbringing and reinforces a message he lives by — life is what you make it — but influence only works if someone is willing to hear it. The conversation shifts to politics as Dr. Ken questions Joel Brennan’s run for governor and whether Milwaukee has anything to gain from his campaign. The first hour ends with a powerful truth: some decisions shape themselves long before anyone tries to intervene, and the real question is whether we recognize the difference.

• 12/11/15 4PM: Age, Wisdom & The Cost of Accountability

  Dr. Ken begins hour two with his Truth: Age, Wisdom, and Experience Is a Thing, reminding listeners that 2026 must be the year we value those who’ve survived battles younger generations only watch on TikTok. The conversation turns heavy as Dr. Ken plays a heartbreaking video of a Milwaukee mother whose son died following a police chase, challenging Truth Nation with a critical question: Where does accountability truly start? Callers weigh in on reckless driving, police pursuits, and the systems pushing kids into the criminal justice pipeline. More callers join the debate on whether Milwaukee schools are becoming more dangerous than the streets. The hour closes with Dr. Ken’s message to walk into the new year with intention, gratitude, and clarity — not fear.

  The third hour kicks off with the Top 5 @ 5, covering street designations honoring local leaders, a Lyft hit-and-run, and a shocking case of a woman shoplifting during a Shop With a Cop event. Dr. Ken breaks down the controversy surrounding Judge Hannah Dugan’s trial, then questions who’s really running HR at MPS as lawsuits continue to mount. After the headlines, Dr. Ken tackles rising healthcare costs as the Senate rejects an extension of federal subsidies, warning listeners that millions may feel the impact in the coming weeks. The YouTube poll results roll in — most listeners say stopping someone “depends on who tries.” Steve and Sandra call in, adding heat and humor before Dr. Ken wraps the day and teases Pop Off Friday.
