🎙️ Episode 45: White On White Crime
The AstonishinglyODD Podcast
This week on The AstonishinglyODD Podcast, Javy, Hi $peed, and Matt Sass tap into culture, hoops, hip-hop, and hard truths — blending personal reflection with sharp social commentary in true AOP fashion.
Hi $peed kicks things off reviewing Soul Power, a documentary about the American Basketball Association (ABA). He breaks down how the ABA revolutionized modern basketball — introducing the dunk contest, the three-point line, and a more free-flowing, entertaining style that eventually forced the NBA to adapt.
Javy opens up about therapy and personal growth, revealing how a past car accident still impacts his present-day relationships. A major breakthrough? Realizing he hadn’t fully formed his identity outside of a previous long-term relationship. It’s a real conversation about healing, accountability, and self-discovery.
Matt Sass shares stories from driving Uber on Valentine’s Day and doubles down on his belief that the holiday feels overly commercialized. Meanwhile, Astonish keeps the love alive — literally — by calling to wish everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day.
The crew shifts to the NBA All-Star Game. Hi $peed skipped it entirely to finish the ABA documentary, while Javy breaks down the new Team USA vs. The World format and the noticeable absence of international stars like Nikola Jokic. They also debate Anthony Edwards’ comments toward older players and the state of the dunk contest.
In hip-hop, the crew salutes J. Cole’s latest album for its maturity and lyrical growth, and they show love to RZA’s project paying homage to the Juice Crew — honoring the roots of the culture.
The episode closes on heavier social commentary — discussing political accountability, wealth inequality, voting rights, and the Epstein files. The hosts challenge listeners to think critically and stay engaged. Hi $peed wraps it with a book recommendation: “Brainwashed: Challenging the Myth of Black Inferiority” by Tom Burrell.
Layered. Unfiltered. Thought-provoking.
