After a week off, Izzy Baker returns with a solo Mental Man Monday that, while shorter than usual, delivers big on perspective, pettiness, and prophetic warning shots you don’t want to miss. The episode opens with a reflection on Season 9, Track 6 of As a Man, Volume 2, featuring financial expert Stoy Hall. Recorded back in January, the final track of the series tackled financial literacy, credit repair, and the hard truth that many Black men were never taught what money really means.
Izzy shares how learning the difference between being rich and being financially free is a revelation that’s hitting many men—late, but right on time. Then, he dives into culture commentary with a breakdown of Travis Hunter’s new marriage and the prenup drama that’s made its way into sports and social media conversations. While Izzy doesn’t support prenups in most cases, he breaks down why Travis’s situation might be the exception—and why you can’t marry potential, only patterns.
Finally, Izzy turns the spotlight on a disturbing and underreported moment involving French President Emmanuel Macron and his much older wife, Brigitte. A questionable public interaction caught on video raises questions about abuse, power, and double standards. If the genders were reversed, would the world stay this quiet? From money to manhood to media narratives, this episode calls it like it is.
