This episode of So Good It Hurts goes straight for the throat. Andre Xcellence! takes aim at Terrence Howard’s recent homophobic comments on Club Random — and doesn’t hold back.

We’re talking masculinity, respect, Hollywood hypocrisy, and what it really means to be professional as an actor. Also? We’re side-eyeing Bill Maher for cosigning this foolishness.

No one asked for Marvin Gaye to be disrespected. No one asked Terrence to kiss a man. But if you’re a thespian, act like one.

Topics include:

• Homophobia masked as “method acting”
• Internalized shame in Black masculinity
• Club Random & performative allyship
• Why the G’s are always watching — and why disrespect has consequences

Plus: What it means when straight men can’t even play a role — and why “protest too much” might say more than they think.

 Real talk. No chaser.

So Good It Hurts: Jason Whitlock Gets the Toilet Bowl Award!

In this fiery debut of So Good It Hurts, Xcellence! takes aim at one of the most polarizing sports commentators in America — Jason Whitlock. From his failed runs at ESPN and Fox Sports, to public beefs with Stephen A. Smith, Jemele Hill, and others, Whitlock has built a career out of controversy. But when he recently went after Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl moment, accusing commercial hip-hop of being “demonic,” it was the last straw.

Xcellence! calls him out with humor, facts, and a list of “greatest hits” that show a track record of messy exits, reckless takes, and disrespect to entire communities. Along the way, we pull receipts on his firings, demotions, and the legendary rants that even colleagues say make him “the worst human being they’ve ever worked with.”

Funny, raw, and unfiltered, this episode exposes why Whitlock continues to flame out, and why the culture is done with his tired antics. Welcome to the Court of Public Opinion — and today’s Toilet Bowl Award goes to Jason Whitlock.
