The fellas are back for another week of conversation and controlled foolishness. This episode, J and Dame dig into the ongoing protests in Michigan against Governor Gretchen Whitmer, taking a balanced look at both sides and the noticeably different reactions depending on who’s protesting.

They slide into some Hip-Hop talk too—Drake’s new release, a debate over his best verse, what Jay-Z’s best verse might be, and the ultimate question of BIG’s best verse. There’s definitely a whole podcast worth of material in that discussion alone.

The episode closes with the annual debate: Should a man buy a Mother’s Day gift for his child’s mother if he’s in a new relationship? Opinions were shared, feelings were felt.

EP204 - Pick Your Poison by @shoptalkpodcast

Welcome back to Shoptalkpodcast Episode 196.

This week, J and Dame catch up on their week and dive into a few trending topics—including Harriet Tubman appearing on a Visa card, the man punching the back of a passenger’s seat on a plane, and all things Valentine’s Day.

They’re also joined in the studio by Darwin Filey, Regional Manager of the Social Justice Ministry. Darwin and his team break down the upcoming 2020 U.S. Census and why it matters for Black communities in particular. The conversation touches on the fears some people have around filling out the census, how census data affects resources and representation, and the timeline and process for completing it. It’s an informative and necessary discussion.

This week, the fellas link up remotely for the first time—J recording from the home studio and Dame calling in—but even in the apocalypse, we couldn’t leave you without an episode.
