On Today's episode of The Morning Aux, we dig into the topics everyone’s talking about. From the nationwide marriage fraud crackdown shaking up immigration policy to the FDA’s approval of lab-grown salmon and what it means for the future of seafood, we’re covering stories that mix breaking news with cultural conversation. We break down the expanding SNAP junk food ban, weigh in on the viral (and dangerous) Stiletto Challenge, and unpack the latest on BET’s decision to suspend both the Hip Hop Awards and Soul Train Awards. We also spotlight cultural touchstones like The Proud Family, Teyana Taylor, Raven-Symoné, the inspiring story of a Nigerian doctor, and the rise of basketball star Angel Reese.

In music, we’re talking major drops: J.I.D with God Does Like Ugly, Gunna with The Last Wun, Bryson Tiller with The Vices, Young Nudy with Paradise, and Machine Gun Kelly with Lost America. And in a special feature, we premiere Bytes of Brandon with Brandon the Intern—bringing fresh energy, sharp takes, and behind-the-scenes moments you won’t see anywhere else. It’s culture, controversy, and conversation all in one place.
