  • The Magic Beans
    Welcome back to Powell to the People: Rebel Base One! This week, Tony, Keith, and Derek are back with an unfiltered, no-holds-barred breakdown of the realities of aging, the truth behind historical propaganda, and the geopolitical madness affecting your wallet.
     
    First, Derek gets real about entering the "Fourth Quarter" of life. He shares a hilarious and humbling story from a recent cardiologist appointment at age 63 (yes, they do start asking that question!), the truth about "magic beans," and why cholesterol numbers seem to magically drop every time a new statin hits the market.
     
    Next, Tony breaks down why Indigenous Peoples’ Day is the only accurate way to mark the date, addressing the historical propaganda around Columbus and praising NYC political figure Zohran Mamdani for keeping it a buck. The crew also tackles the shocking, indiscriminate ICE shooting in the Bronx, questioning the protocol of firing into a vehicle with a five-year-old child inside.
     
    Then, we shift to Midterm Election Alert! With voting just weeks away, we expose the voter suppression tricks you need to watch out for—from mail-in ballot postage traps (yes, one stamp might not be enough) to aggressive voter roll purges in key states. Don’t just vote; make sure your vote actually counts.
     
    Finally, we break down the insane paradox of U.S. foreign policy: How is the U.S. buying oil from Russia, a nation backing Iran, while simultaneously funding a proxy conflict against Iran? Plus, we explore how the BRICS alliance is quietly dismantling the petrodollar’s dominance and what that means for the global economy.

  • It's A Different World
    Episode 395: Political Propaganda, Jasmine Guy’s Backlash, & The "Cornell 7" Justice Double Standard
     
    Welcome back to Powell to the People, Rebel Base One! This week, Tony, Keith, and DP are pulling back the curtain on the political propaganda machine, the unfair realities of aging in Hollywood, and the shocking double standards of the American justice system.
     
    First, the crew breaks down the upcoming November elections and why the political establishment is struggling to connect with working-class and rural voters. By focusing on cultural distractions instead of "kitchen-table" issues like looming SNAP and healthcare cuts, politicians are ignoring the fact that economic devastation hurts everyone, regardless of race.
     
    Then, the guys tackle the internet’s disrespectful backlash against Jasmine Guy ahead of the A Different World revival. The crew defends the iconic actress, breaking down the sexism and ageism in Hollywood, and discussing how wealth, resources, and stress play a massive role in how we age. (Plus, a massive shoutout to the legendary Malaco Music Group and artist Kamikaze for their brilliant, truth-telling track "No More Trouble"!)
     
    Finally, the podcast dives into the disturbing "Cornell 7" case, where seven Ivy League students allegedly gang-raped an incapacitated young woman and were initially met with slap-on-the-wrist punishments. With New York Attorney General Letitia James stepping in, the guys discuss why the "good old boys" club is finally out of chances and how the judicial system treats wealthy white criminals versus Black and Brown defendants.

  • Black Doesn't Mean Guilty
    Episode Description:
     
    What happens when the "default villain" stereotype puts your life in danger? In this week’s episode of Power to the People Rebel Base One, Anthony Powell shares a terrifying, real-life encounter with severe racial profiling on a New York City bus, exposing the dangerous reality Black men face when they are automatically presumed guilty.
     
    But the conversation quickly shifts from personal encounters to systemic nightmares. The crew breaks down the heartbreaking and infuriating case of Nolan Wells, the Black teenager in Mississippi whose death was ruled an "accidental drowning" despite damning GPS evidence released by attorney Ben Crump. Anthony, Keith (BigFellow), and Derek (DP) expose the deep-rooted corruption in local justice systems, the protection of privileged suspects, and the gutting of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division.
     
    Plus, the guys tackle the political landscape, praising NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani for calling out war criminals at the UN, while questioning the "bought and paid for" politicians in Washington. Finally, they dive into a chilling Jon Stewart segment on "surveillance pricing"—how smart grocery carts, data tracking, and tap-to-pay transit systems are quietly manipulating prices and draining your wallet right under your nose.
     
    Grab your headphones, because "Negrodomus" is predicting the future once again. You don't want to miss this!

    Then, we pivot to the heavy hitters. Mayor Zohran Mamdani is dropping the 9/11 files and checking Rudy Giuliani’s legacy, gas prices are absolutely breaking the bank, and the geopolitical map is shifting with new Middle East choke points. Plus, we’re calling out the wild political tactics of offering $5,000 for your vote—and why you shouldn't hold your breath for that check. 💸
     
    We’re also exposing the absolute scam of for-profit US healthcare (Canada,we're packing our bags! 🇨🇦) and calling out iconic R&B legends who desperately need to retire before they embarrass themselves on stage. 
    Finally, we’re cheering on Ben Shelton making history at the US Open in Queens and praying for a Yankees World Series run to complete the ultimate NYC sports trifecta!

  • "Pheromone Maxing," Fake 49ers & A Tribute to Dolly Parton 🎙️
    Welcome back to Rebel Base One! This week on Powell to the People, Tony, Keith, and DP are unpacking some of the wildest trends in modern dating, internet culture, and politics.
     
    First, we’re roasting the "Manosphere" and the absurd "pheromone maxing" trend. If you think not showering and drinking your own urine is going to help you attract a woman, we need to have a serious talk about soap and deodorant. 🧼🚫
     
    Then, we break down modern dating red flags: women bringing their friends on your dime, ordering the whole menu, and the reality of Anthony’s son moving out and getting his own place (and the women trying to lock him down!). 🍽️💸
     
    We also dive into the jaw-dropping $1.3 million scam by a fake San Francisco 49ers player who somehow fooled 26 women, the ongoing rumors of racism and food tampering at chain restaurants like Texas Roadhouse, and the political distractions of the administration trying to rename Lake Ontario to "Lake America." 🏈🍔🇺🇸
     
    Plus, we discuss the upcoming midterms, the importance of unions, and why corporate Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries are losing the people's trust.
     
    Finally, we close the show with a beautiful, heartfelt tribute to the legendary Dolly Parton. Anthony shares a personal story of meeting the icon, we react to a hilarious photo moment, and we celebrate her unmatched humility, giving back, and songwriting legacy. 🎸🏔️

    Episode 390: Remembering Michael Wright, Penn State’s Frat Cocaine Ring & "Mystery Meat"
     
    Welcome back to Powell to the People: Rebel Base 1! Keith is away on vacation this week, so Tony Powell is flying solo with DP and TV news director Mark. It’s a packed episode that ranges from heartfelt Hollywood tributes to wild college horror stories, media critiques, and heavy political commentary.
     
    On this week's episode, the crew discusses:
     
    • Remembering Michael Wright: Tony and DP pay tribute to the late, great actor Michael Wright, who recently passed away at 70. They reflect on his undeniable screen presence, his iconic "bad guy" roles, and his legendary performance as Eddie Kane Jr. in The Five Heartbeats and Ray Nathan in Sugar Hill. Out of respect for the late actor, DP announces he is officially retiring the "Eddie Kane Jr." moniker.
    • The Penn State Fraternity Cocaine Ring: The guys break down the massive, pledge-involving cocaine distribution ring at Penn State. They discuss the lack of federal RICO charges, the "old boy" privilege of wealthy families, and how it mirrors the fictional university drug game in Power. Tony and Mark also share their own terrifying, Animal House-meets-horror-movie experiences attending wildly out-of-control white frat parties.
    • Tariffs, Gas Prices, & "Mystery Meat": Trump's temporary plan to allow 300,000 tons of tariff-free imported ground beef to combat high prices has the guys asking: Where is the beef actually coming from? They joke about wild mustangs and "horse burgers" while discussing how $6-a-gallon gas and tariffs are being passed directly to the everyday consumer.
    • The Teleprompter Nightmare: Mark uses his expertise as a TV news director to break down the technical nightmare of running a teleprompter for a president who struggles to read. He explains how staff have to drastically simplify scripts and "dumb down" the alphabet just to avoid on-air disasters.
    • Global Pushback & Political Sellouts: The crew discusses how countries like Canada and Iran are finally standing up to US bullying, realizing "there's more of them than there is of him." Plus, Tony makes a bold prediction: Hakeem Jeffries and Stephen A. Smith are both angling for $30-million-a-year gigs at Fox News after fumbling the bag.

      • Hakeem Jeffries Is An SOB (Sold Out Brother)
        In this episode of Powell to the People Rebel Base One, Tony Powell is joined by Keith, Mark, and Derek Powell for a wide-ranging conversation that seamlessly blends hilarious family banter with urgent socio-political commentary. The crew kicks things off with a hilarious debate over strict travel routines, punctuality, and road trip snack etiquette. The conversation then shifts to hard-hitting cultural critiques, breaking down the NABJ’s failing grade for Stephen A. Smith, calling out political evasions by leaders like Hakeem Jeffries, and exposing the disconnect between politicians and the working class. In a sobering and vital segment, the hosts raise awareness about the suspicious, under-investigated deaths of young Black individuals across the country. Finally, they review the new Michael Jackson biopic, debating whether it’s a genuine tribute or a sanitized cash-grab that conveniently ignores the controversies. Tune in for the signature mix of unapologetic truth, cultural critique, and real talk.

      • Powell Kicks On Route 66

        In this week's episode the Powell's discuss a recent road trip to the hometown of our fathers. #Whitakers #NorthCarolina is a town in northeastern NC that time has left behind. Its a rural hamlet that lost its lifeline when the interstate was built, like many thriving small towns along the highways and byways of America prior to the Interstate highway system being built. #I95 #I10#I301 #I5 #I75 #i90 have connected large swaths of the country but have been a bane to small town America. The guys also say goodbye to #NBA coach #DonNelson , or #Nellie as he was affectionately known. There was a major earthquake in #Colombia . We hope the survivors of the #ColombianEarthquake recover soon. Former NBA star #BenSimmons is talking comeback. Ohhhhkayy. There is some ridiculousness happening with for NBA player #EnesKantor who wants to enter the #WNBADraft . What a loser.

      • Super Fly

        In this week's episode the The Powell men, Tony & Keith take a walk down memory lane and discuss #Blaxploitation Films. The guys have gotten hooked on #PamGrier #SoulFlix on #Roku. The 70s icon hosts a channel that plays iconic #Blackmovies from the 70s. Last week I watched a #Shaft marathon. #RichardRoundtree in the aforementioned Shaft , which started it all and the follow up #ShaftsBigScore and the surprisingly good #ShaftinAfrica. I finally saw #SuperFly from opening to closing credits while connecting the late great #CurtisMayfield soundtrack to the scenes. #BlackHollywood definitely had some misses but there were some real gems that came from the era. #JimBrown #FredWilliamson #IsaacHayes #GlynnTurman #EddieMurphy #jimkelly #RonOneal #NewYorkCity #GordonParks #MosesGunn
