Hell, hath no fury than the woke left finding a new celebrity to cancel. Beyoncé’s shirt honoring the Buffalo Soldiers sparked a viral backlash—but most people don’t even know who the Buffalo Soldiers were. In this episode, Dr. Phil explores the history: Black regiments fighting on the Western frontier, their role in U.S. expansion, and the moral complexity of African American soldiers tasked with displacing Native people. Before you cancel, learn the real story. What To Know: Buffalo Soldiers was the nickname given to African American cavalry and infantry regiments formed after the Civil War in 1866. The term is believed to have been coined by Native American tribes who fought them, possibly referencing their hair texture resembling a buffalo’s fur and their fierce fighting spirit. The soldiers served mainly on the Western frontier, building roads, protecting settlers, and engaging in military campaigns against Indigenous peoples. Units included the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments and the 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments. 12th Cavalry: While the 12th Cavalry was not an all-Black regiment (like the 9th and 10th), it was active during overlapping time periods and campaigns in the West, and occasionally fought alongside or against units involving African American troops. Many people conflate these regiments because they operated in similar territories during the Indian Wars.

Facts: Approximately 180,000 Black soldiers served in the Union Army during the Civil War. Buffalo Soldiers represented about 20% of all U.S. cavalry forces on the frontier between 1866 and 1890. They earned 18 Medals of Honor in the late 19th century. Despite their service, they faced segregation, poor supplies, and systemic racism.

Context with Native Americans: The tragic paradox: Black soldiers, themselves oppressed, were tasked with enforcing policies that dispossessed Native people. Many Buffalo Soldiers held complex views about their role, often caught between survival, duty, and conscience. The U.S. military campaigns were part of larger policies of westward expansion and Manifest Destiny.

Artificial Intelligence isn’t coming — it’s already here. And it’s not just changing how we live… It’s starting to redefine what it means to be human. Dr. Phil discusses how AI is already fundamentally changing civilization as we know it and what to expect in the near future. First, Dr. Phil interviews 21-year-old AI CEO’s Roy Lee and Neel Shanmugam who both left Columbia University to create software that allows anyone to cheat on their computer by being fed information from anything from job interviews to everyday conversations. They say they think people should use AI to “cheat” on everything, and if you don’t, you will be left behind. Then, AI Safety Researcher, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy, explains why it’s essential for the survival of humanity that we put safety protocols in place. Later, Dr. Phil is joined by CEO and Founder of AI company First Movers, Dr. Julia McCoy – and her clone - who explain why AI will give us infinite opportunities and is nothing to fear.

Young men wanting to be muscle influencers but using performance enhancement drugs say they are suffering from “bigorexia” or muscle dysmorphia.  Is social media to blame?   

According to a recent study from the Center for Countering Digital Hate, there have been 420 million views of videos on Tik Tok pushing steroids to teens.   Some experts say that trend is creating young men to develop "bigorexia," or muscle dysmorphia. Senior anchor for News on Merit Street investigates on how easy it is for teens to order illegal performance enhancement drugs online. Ryan says he was able to get these drugs online when he started bodybuilding to follow in his father, Shawn’s, footsteps.  He started posting his journey online and developed a huge following.  At just 16 years old, Ryan says his muscle gains plateaued.  So he found another way to get to superhero status until he went blind.  Plus, we meet Colton who says he’s using steroids now and looking to launch himself to internet stardom at whatever cost. But his fiancée Alex says she wants Colton to stop using steroids because it turns him into an angry person full of rage.  And Callum Hood, head researcher at the Center for Countering Digital Hate, tells Dr. Phil about the study he led focusing on how Tik Tok videos promote steroid-like drugs.   And Dr. Thomas O’Connor is a board-certified doctor of internal medicine and professor at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine. He's also known as the “Anabolic Doc” who knows firsthand what it’s like to be addicted to performance enhancement drugs.
