This week on The Morning Show, we welcome Ron Blake, the creator of the Blake Late Show โ a decade-long, cross-country social art project that has touched tens of thousands of lives and inspired two award-winning documentaries.

What began as one manโs mission of personal recovery became a movement of collective healing, creative expression, and human connection.
