In this episode of Brilliant Idiots, Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz are unpacking everything from the emotional toll of hostage situations to the fine line between free speech and offending the crowd in comedy.

They get into what it really means to stay authentic as a comedian, how politics shapes public perception, and why money can sometimes mess with creative choices. Expect honest takes on performing in controversial venues, the chaos of the world today, and the art of storytelling in memoirs.

From Arsenio Hall’s lasting influence to Kylie Jenner’s surprising musical debut, nothing’s off-limits. They also dive into Trump’s latest hot takes, moral debates inspired by the Ten Commandments, and what it takes to keep growing—personally and professionally—when the spotlight’s on you.
