(BALTIMORE – July 9, 2025) – I’ll be honest — I’ve been doing this since elementary school. From delivering the morning announcements to running my own Afro paper route, to going live on WEAA 88.9 FM with Charlie Dugger at just 15 years old — media called me early, and I’ve been answering ever since.
This message is especially for our young people still discovering who they are and, prayerfully, their purpose. Find what you love — then do it like your life depends on it.
If you’re a painter, paint everything in sight. If you’re a speechwriter, study the best and apprentice under greatness. If the violin is your gift, play until the strings break — then get new ones and keep going.
Bruce Lee once said he’d rather master one kick than learn a thousand different ones. In other words, find your specialty. Hone your craft. Be the best at what you do — and surround yourself with people who are even better. Iron sharpens iron.
My point is simple: What Jamal does most, Jamal does best. Do what you do best — and do it with excellence.
For me, I love interviewing people. That’s why this past Monday, we brought the Doni Glover Show to Joseph H. Brown Funeral Home at Reisterstown Road and Fulton Avenue. I sat down with Joey Brown — a fifth-generation funeral director whose family legacy spans decades in Baltimore.
Joey is a pioneer. He’s already left his mark by building a crematory in Baltimore City — and now, he’s leading again. He just introduced water cremation — a cleaner, greener, more compassionate approach to a sacred process. It’s revolutionary.
Tune in to the Doni Glover Show every Sunday at 5:30 a.m. on WMAR-TV2.
Rondy Griffin of G. Grant Griffin Media Group and Calvin Watkins of Chosen Media made this possible. Also, special thanks to Saidah Spinner and Charlyn Nater of the Bossladies of Baltimore segment.
