The show opens with a viral social experiment: an influencer calling churches to find the most benevolent one, only to learn that compassion is in short supply. According to her tally, 33 churches refused to help a “struggling mother,” while only 9 offered support—and most of those were Black or Buddhist congregations.

The D.L. Hughley Show Podcast opens with a jaw-dropping story as the team discusses a TikToker who hit and killed a man while live-streaming and driving, even with her child in the backseat. DL calls it “the sickness of clout culture,” especially after she began asking the public for donations and promoting her new album immediately after the tragedy. The conversation then shifts to the Question of the Day, unpacking a viral story of a mother who drained her daughter’s college fund and then asked to live with her after the daughter worked her way through school alone. The daughter said no to her mom living with her. Callers sound off passionately, with most saying the daughter was right to say no, especially after learning the mom spent the fund on her son’s wedding instead of her education. DL and Jasmine highlight how modern parent-child boundaries look very different today, and not always for the better. 

Later, the show is joined by author and comedian John Fugelsang, who breaks down themes from his book Separation of Church and Hate, arguing that many Christian nationalists “use Jesus’ name for power, not Jesus’ teachings.” DL praises the book for showing that through scripture, how anti-immigrant, anti-poor, and anti-LGBTQ rhetoric contradicts what Jesus actually taught.

The D.L. Hughley Show Podcast opens with political heat and cultural reflection. DL and the crew dig into growing frustration among Democrats after the Supreme Court struck down key portions of the Affordable Care Act, calling out party leaders for being “too soft” while Republicans pushed through their long-promised repeal. DL blasts what he calls the “self-sabotage of saving people from themselves,” reminding listeners that many who opposed Obamacare are now the same ones suffering from rising premiums and shuttered hospitals. 

The tone shifts to the Question of the Day, as the team tackles a viral influencer debate claiming “Black men don’t marry Black women once they get rich.” DL and Jasmine Sanders counter with Pew and CDC data showing nearly 85–95% of Black men marry Black women, even among high earners. Listeners from around the country call in, many blaming that false narrative on social media, slavery-era division, and pop-culture stereotypes. The conversation ends on a lighter, heartwarming note as former President Barack Obama surprises veterans and their families at a D.C. airport, earning the “Human Being of the Week” award for his humility and service.
