Don’t call it a comeback!  "The boys are back in town" and ready to kick off Season 2. There have been a few life altering changes 👀 with the crew and we address them all.  We also chat it up about current events and the ending of the worst movie ever, 2020... The good, the bad, and the insurrection. 🤬Connect with us on Instagram and Twitter @BlackLITEpod.

As we get ready to head into Season 02, we bring you the second installment in our SpotLITE series.  Each episode we’ll take a closer look at one of the hosts on the show.

On this episode, we get fresh and finessed with the podcasts’ very own, Julian Smith

Not sure if you know this or not, but there is apparently a tiny little election coming up! On this special episode, Sheldon and Jason speak with Miles Thompson, the founder of Civic Citizens and its efforts to educate the public on voting and civic engagement.  We also have an informative and spicy discussion about voter apathy and speak to a first time voter.

The BlackLITE Podcast wraps up its sensational last episode of the season, and all questions will be answered! Why did Jason forget about Spawn? Does Sheldon’s sexy voice do anything for Candace Owens?? Did Julian get arrested for not saying, “pardon me” to a White woman, and will Warren’s “Beige Rage” consume the show??!?  

On this episode we focus on taking control of the stories told about us as Black people. From American history, to media and film, to sports -- we examine why it’s so important to write the past, present, and future as Pro-Black. What does “Black Power” actually mean??

From timeouts, spankings, and ass-whoppin's: on this episode we chat it up about parenting.  Should some of the more violent, “traditional” disciplinary tactics of black, brown, and all those in-between be left in the past?  We also discuss “the talk” every black parent ends up having and we are not talking about the 🐥 or 🐝.  And speaking of THAT talk, sadly we find out Jason is still waiting for his talk, 18 years later 😬Connect with us on Instagram and Twitter @BlackLITEpod.

On this episode we recap the Jacob Blake shooting in Wisconsin, followed by the self-proclaimed “Protector of Walmart” shooting and killing protestors in Kenosha. Jason and Sheldon share their experience at the historic March on Washington, and we reflect as a group on the passing of THE Black Panther, Chadwick Boseman. Is 2020 Cancelled yet?!?

On this episode we discuss Black Firsts. From the newly nominated candidate for VP, Kamala Harris, to the first Black Stunt Man. We explore why seeing Black faces in high places is so important.

We’ve all heard of White Privilege, but is there such a thing as Light-skinned privilege? We examine stereotypes from within the Black community, and explore the the light-skin vs. dark-skin dichotomy that exists in this space. After all these years, Sheldon reveals his solution to being vertically challenged. Connect with us on Instagram and Twitter @BlackLITEpod.
