🎙️ Episode 30 | “What’s Wrong With This Podcast?”

The AstonishinglyODD Podcast returns with another hilarious, unpredictable episode featuring Astonish, Javy, Lance, and Chris iLL.

Things start off chaotic as the crew runs mic checks — and Javy gets accused of “policing” the group, not because he’s stopping jokes, but because he had the cameras rolling early like an off-duty informant. From there, the guys roast Javy’s four-points-per-game average and his bold choice of hoop shoes for outdoor concrete courts.

Lance shares his packed week, from a Jack Daniels event and his father-in-law’s 70th birthday to celebrating a Chicago Bears win. Chris iLL talks about attending his monthly “Gents Dinner” and how the crew dropped the ball by missing the Bare Knuckle Fighting event that took place right in their own backyard — Chicago. Meanwhile, Astonish talks about being buried in classes and trying to balance everything at once.

The conversation heats up when the crew debates whether The Alchemist deserves the title of Producer of the Year. They dive into the tension between mainstream and underground hip-hop, discuss Grammy politics, and question if Pusha T and The Clipse can still be called “mainstream.” They also look at this year’s top-selling albums from Drake, Playboi Carti, and Lil Baby.

In true AstonishinglyODD fashion, the discussion takes a left turn into Mr. Rogers’ sweaters — apparently all hand-knitted by his mom?! — before spiraling into Twitch drama involving the CEO’s “Mount Rushmore of streamers” and his alleged disrespect toward Kai Cenat.

To close it out, the crew breaks down Ayesha Curry’s latest viral comments and wonders if she’s becoming the next Jada Pinkett Smith. They debate whether sharing private details helps or hurts her public image — and how much of her spotlight really comes from Steph Curry’s fame.
