The Greenwood Beat – WFPG: Rebuilding Black Wall Street, One Beat at a Time.

The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is Oklahoma’s first woman-owned and first-ever radio station on the historic Greenwood Avenue in Tulsa aka the original Black Wall Street. 

Powerful and Emotional Response

Tulsa, OK – May 2, 2025 — The Greenwood Beat – WFPG made history once again with the highly anticipated premiere of “Talkin Wit Trus,” hosted by none other than Treston Irby of the iconic R&B group Hi-Five. Originally scheduled for Thursday, the premiere aired Friday, May 2, at 7 PM CST — and the audience showed up in a big way.

Listeners from all over tuned in by the hundreds, flooding the digital airwaves with support, gratitude, and heartfelt reactions. The energy was electric, but what truly captivated the audience was Irby’s realness. He spoke from the heart, unfiltered and unapologetic, touching on topics many avoid but desperately need to be addressed in the Black community.

From reflections on fame, life after the spotlight, and the untold story of Hi-Five, to deep discussions about men’s mental health, generational trauma, and community healing — the show struck a chord.

“He didn’t hold back.”

“Finally, someone is saying what needs to be said.”

“I didn’t know THAT about Hi-Five. This story matters.”

These are just a few of the comments that poured in during and after the show.

Due to the depth and necessity of these courageous conversations, The Greenwood Beat – WFPG officially moved the show to its permanent time slot:

Fridays at 9:00 PM CST

Treston Irby has stepped into more than just a hosting role — he’s accepted the challenge of using his platform to spark dialogue on subjects often silenced in Black families and communities. As he said during the premiere, “It serves no purpose for us to keep talking at each other. We have to start talking with each other — honestly.”

The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is proud and excited to welcome Treston Irby to the family. His presence represents the mission of the station: to uplift, educate, and empower through authentic conversations that reflect the truth of Black culture, history, and healing.

Tune in every Friday at 9 PM CST at www.thegreenwoodbeat.com to catch “Talkin Wit Trus” — a show you’ll feel in your spirit.
