Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast EP245!

As you heard on the intro, Dame is dealing with some health concerns and couldn’t make the episode in person. Our good brother @MK1982 stepped in to hold things down.

The fellas discuss their week, the relationship men and women have with sex, and the moment when a man should finally give up the “bear dreams.” They also dive into the GameStop stock fiasco, the TI & Tiny situation, and Dame even calls in to tap into the conversation. Solid episode with plenty to unpack.

Welcome back to EP243 of #Shoptalkpodcast!

The fellas are back for another week of foolishness, joined in the studio by AJ, co-host of @TCEPOD. Dame shares his excitement about his son receiving another college offer, and J talks about his experience visiting Inception, the first mental health gym (27:54).

From there, the crew dives into a meaningful conversation about mental health, trauma, the wild times they experienced growing up, and what it takes to reconcile with your past. Really strong dialogue throughout.

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast EP243!

The fellas are back for another week of foolishness, joined this time by longtime friend of Dame’s—and friend of the show—Chris. They catch up on their weeks, with Dame giving an update on his home dialysis journey, J sharing a story about almost getting got by scammers, and Chris bringing a wild tale about a friend who got caught cheating.

The crew also plays a round of Would You Rather, and then they dig into a range of topics including Charles Barkley’s latest takes, whether people who contribute more should get more, ISA vs. traditional student loans, and a lot more. Really good, really layered conversation throughout.

Who’s Mans Is This: Dame… LMAO.

Welcome back to SHOPTALKPODCAST EP242 — American Terrorist?

This week, the fellas get straight to it. They break down the wild events that unfolded at the Capitol and ask the real questions: Was this a coup attempt? Were people actually trying to overthrow the government? Are we being used and abused as usual? And in moments like this… who’s really on your side?

All of that—plus a little Dragon Ball Z energy:

Find out the answers to these questions and more on the next episode of… LOL.

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast EP241!

This week, J and Dame settle in for some good ole-fashioned shoptalk. They recap their New Year’s Eve, share their goals and intentions for 2021, dig into a few deal breakers, and touch on plenty more along the way. A laid-back, conversational episode to kick off the year.

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast EP240 — Stay Out of Men’s Business!

Did you come here to peek inside men’s business? LOL. We’ll give you a pass this time, but cut that sh*t out! Lmao.

J and Dame are back for another week of pure foolishness. They kick things off talking about Christmas—whether it even feels like Christmas this year—and if J is really sticking to his guns about his holiday stance.

The fellas also break down a few #AskTheShop posts from the Instagram page, including the spicy debate about whether a man should be expected to buy his date’s child food before the first date even starts.

From there, they get into their bag and make a public service announcement: women, please stay out of men’s business. They ask the question—tongue-in-cheek but still valid:

Do you want equality… or supremacy?

A fun, wild conversation as always.

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast Episode 238!

J and Dame are joined in the studio by @D_Rick, and the conversation takes off from there. The fellas discuss Lil Wayne’s reported $100M deal for his master recordings, dive into the debate of ownership vs. cashing out, and spend time breaking down D. Rick’s debut album “Here and Now.” Plenty more is covered along the way—good conversation per usual.

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast EP236!

The fellas are back and this week they dig into the holiday known as “Black Family Day”—also known as Thanksgiving. The conversation moves into reflections on past relationships, the things you pick up or learn from them, and how those lessons shape who you become.

They also discuss the recent string of rappers who have been shot or killed, what’s contributing to it, what can realistically be done, and the bigger question at the center of it all: Is Hip Hop a destructive artform? It’s a layered, honest conversation with plenty to unpack.

Music Pick: Courtney Bell — ICE
