Number 1: Full EP | Major Watson Violated Several Articles and Fans Rally; Should Rep. Hakeem Jeffries Met Secretly with Jared Kushner; Urban One Founder Ms. Cathy Hughes Joins DLHS Crew; Five Ways You Lie on Your Resume; and More
The crew weighed in on the case of Air Force Maj. Jason Watson, who is facing military charges after publicly calling for President Trump’s impeachment while in uniform. Watson has been charged under Articles 88, 92, and 133 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice for alleged contemptuous remarks, disobeying orders, and conduct unbecoming an officer, a rare and closely watched military case that has sparked debate over free speech and political expression in the armed forces. The conversation also centered on reports that House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries held a private meeting with Jared Kushner, prompting questions from listeners and hosts alike about transparency, political strategy, and whether elected officials should engage in behind-the-scenes discussions with figures who hold no official government role. Along the way, the show highlighted a positive story from Ohio, where a veteran high school principal lost his job after opening his home to a homeless student and his mother, renewing conversations about compassion, ethics, and the consequences of doing what many view as the right thing. The episode also featured an inspiring visit from Urban One founder Cathy Hughes, who reflected on nearly 46 years of building one of the nation’s largest Black-owned media companies and celebrated the company’s continued growth, including its recent acquisition of Dallas station K104. Elsewhere, the team discussed public health concerns ranging from declining vaccination rates and recent measles deaths to growing scrutiny over gel nail polish ingredients that have been restricted in parts of the United Kingdom over safety concerns. The laughs kept coming with the “Shoo Booty of the Week” award, comedy highlights, and a humorous rundown of the biggest red flags on résumés, including inflated salaries, missing employment dates, and exaggerated job titles. The result was a fast-moving mix of politics, culture, health news, career advice, and comedy that reminded listeners why the show continues to spark conversation while keeping audiences entertained.

Number 5: Full EP | Ranchers Upset with Trump for Tons of Imported Ground Beef; Ax to Child’s Game Too Much or Good Parenting; Singer, Producer, Songwriter Raphael Saadiq; Gary, Indiana and Puerto Rico Still in Need of Assistance; and More
D.L. and the crew weighed in on growing backlash from ranchers after President Trump announced plans to allow up to 300,000 metric tons of imported ground beef into the U.S. tariff-free for 90 days in an effort to lower consumer prices. Ranchers and cattle industry leaders argue the move could hurt domestic producers at a time when the U.S. cattle herd is already at its lowest level in decades and beef prices continue to climb. The show also sparked a lively Question of the Day discussion after a viral video showed a frustrated father taking an ax to his son’s television over unfinished chores. Callers shared personal stories about discipline and consequences, leading to the debate: Was the dad being a good parent or going overboard? D.L. explored whether the dramatic punishment was an example of accountability or a sign that emotions had gotten out of control. Music legend Raphael Saadiq joined D.L. and the crew as he reflected on his remarkable career spanning Tony! Toni! Toné!, Lucy Pearl, solo success, and his work as a songwriter and producer for some of the biggest names in music. Saadiq also discussed the creative drive that continues to push him forward, as he remains active with live performances and storytelling shows that celebrate more than three decades in the industry. The show closed with a look at communities still waiting for relief, including Gary, Indiana, where thousands of residents have faced prolonged power outages following severe storms, and Puerto Rico, which continues to face concerns about infrastructure and disaster recovery. Residents and local leaders have been calling for faster assistance and long-term solutions as families struggle to recover from disruptions that have left many without essential services.
