Breakdances With Wolves

Gyasi and Wes are joined by politico Nicole Willis and New Mexico Senate candidate Gavin Clarkson (R), to do something rarer and rarer, these days: have a civilized conversation between people who are at philosophical odds with each other. From why Reagan deserves another look, abortion rights, economic empowerment and more, it's an engaging talk with some very sharp people.

With Minty off being fabulous in other parts of existence, Randy "The Snack" Tippins jumps on the mic with Gyasi and Wes to talk recently passed John Singleton, movies, remakes and the swirling controversy around Facebook, censorship and why Native folks should be worried when white people get banned on the internet.

With Gyasi on the other end of a phone line, Minty and Wes storm the studio and take that ish over to lead a discussion about the death penalty in the wake of the execution of one of the men who brutally murdered James Byrd.

Gyasi and Wes sit down with Dr. Sarah Knife Chief to talk the facts, the myths, the legends and the truths around the vax/anti-vax debate. Whatever you think those might be, tune and you'll probably pick up a few new things. Engaging and educational, we're doing it big.

We're lightening things up after last weeks heavy subject matter, and we've been graced by Elaine Miles here in studio to talk Native Love stories, centering our experiences, and her new film Juanita.

In the wake of more tragic deaths of Native family at the hands of the non-Native police forces, Gyasi and Wes sit down with Adrianne Chalepah and Tim Reynon to have one of the most powerful and painful conversations ever on this show. It's a deep dive into police misconduct when it comes to Natives and the victims of police violence.

With Minty out on a quick break, Gyasi and Wesley are joined by the casually fabulous Rachel Heaton to talk R. Kelly and the weird dynamic there, her third go round with motherhood, the challenges of parenting and of course, Three Things. Dig in, it's a beautiful thing!

With Gyasi on the line from a secret mission out of town, Minty takes control like Janet and rocks the BDWW studios with Wes. They're taking on Cohen, the complicated personal politics of canceling artists, R. Kelly being trash and Black Magic at the Oscars!

The gang is back and the studio is packed! Gyasi, Minty & Wes are sitting down with Ean McCants a Chickasaw Freedman to discuss the diversity around Black & Native identities, Natives and slavery, and other under-discussed issues. Plus we got some Jussie Smollett thoughts!

The gang is back on the mic! This week it's people who need to stay in their own damn lane, a detour into pop culture, Things We're Feeling. Press play and get familiar!
