In this episode, I discuss a quote that got me thinking about boundaries, the passing of Jesse Jackson, why Elon Musk ain’t no Jesse Jackson, redoing my website, a message from TikTok creator @Iamsoulqueenwu, and the events that led me to finally get a physical after turning 40.

In this episode, I discuss the new ShutupPodcast site, how little I actually knew about credit cards and personal finance, something that bothers me after discovering a new podcast, the kind of book reviews I don’t like, what I’d do if I were on the U.S. hockey team, and my personal history with the N-word.

In today’s episode, I talk about the conflict of being a Black Canadian during the Canada–U.S. Olympic hockey finals, the wack-ass open mic show I sat through yesterday, and my reflections from Virtuous Con weekend.

In today’s episode, I talk about the latest improvements to my setup, this week’s soundclip courtesy of Zurich High School, reflections on the last episode, AI slop, Black History Month, and how finishing Light Bringer left me speechless.

Final Say

In today’s episode, I talk about Donald Trump disrespecting a female reporter, my journey into subscribing to the Grits & Eggs Podcast, hearing my email read on my favorite shows, and a journal entry I wrote about my biggest hater.

In today’s episode, I reflect on Day 1 of Black History Month 2026, what it meant to see my heroes on stamps, the mention of Jay-Z and Pusha T in the Epstein files, Jill Scott’s upcoming album, and my week of catsitting.

In today’s episode, I reflect on a viral video from a Miami nightclub that stuck with me more than I expected and sent me down a personal rabbit hole about club culture, status, and masculinity. It brought back memories of how I used to feel in those spaces and made me realize that The Roots and Little Brother were saying something I wasn’t ready to hear back then. I also share a separate reminder to check in on your mental health.

In today’s episode I talk about my recent birthday trip to Playa Del Carmen Mexico.

In this episode, I close out the year with my usual randomness: the episode I meant to record last Sunday but didn’t, family gatherings, reflections sparked by my upcoming trip and one thing I’m proud of from 2025, and what to expect in 2026 for this podcast.

In today’s episode, I discuss what I like about this time of year, why I enjoy watching YouTube documentaries about D-Day, the Battle of Stalingrad, and the Battle of the Bulge, The Running Man (2025), and Neil deGrasse Tyson’s thoughts about getting older.
