This week on Thee Bathroom Chronicles 🎙️🚽

We’re talking power shifts, public fear, music industry mess, and mental health in a way only this podcast can.

From gerrymandering and how today’s political climate is reshaping representation, to the paranoia surrounding hantavirus and recent cruise line health scares, we unpack how fear and control move through society.

Then we get into Drake’s latest music era, the alleged shots toward Kendrick Lamar, DJ Khaled, and LeBron James, and whether the music still feels authentic or just repetitive.

In Stall Conversations, we ask:
“When Black men are hurting… do we speak, or disappear?”
A real conversation about silence, survival, vulnerability, and emotional isolation.

And in Mirror Talk, we reflect on Donny Hathaway’s brilliance, legacy, and mental health struggles while opening up about seasonal depression, imposter syndrome, career frustration, and learning how to survive without losing yourself in the process.

Raw humor. Real talk. No pretending.

This is Thee Bathroom Chronicles:
where truth echoes loud in small spaces.

From the message of Good Times to the realities of millennial life, this episode blends culture, truth, and reflection. We dive into Brandy’s Phases, unpack major music headlines involving Pooh Shiesty and Gucci Mane, and close with a personal tribute honoring grief, love, and legacy.

In this episode, we reflect on the late Jesse Jackson, unpack the Crockett vs. Talarico showdown, and examine the Iran crisis — all through the lens of being misunderstood and the challenge of honest self-reflection. A conversation about power, perception, and accountability.

In this episode of Thee Bathroom Chronicles, I get real about what it means to navigate the world as a Black man with a doctorate in education—being the only one in the room, advocating for yourself, and managing the subtle and not-so-subtle biases that come with it.

We also break down Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance and why singing in Spanish sparked so much conversation, reflect on a birthday trip to Lafayette with my wife—old friends, students, and the comfort of home-cooked memories—and explore the power of showing up unapologetically in every space.

Funny, honest, and reflective—this is a space where thoughts don’t get dressed u

After being away from the podcast for three years, this episode is a long-overdue check-in. Check-In Overload is about what happened during the hiatus, why I stepped back, and what that time away made clear.

I talk through workplace overextension—being stretched too thin, constant check-ins, and how unnecessary drama can take up more space than the actual work. It’s an honest look at burnout, blurred boundaries, and the pressure to always be available, even when it’s doing more harm than good.

Toward the end, things ease up with a shift into music: what I’ve been listening to lately, how my taste has changed, and why music has been a steady companion through the chaos and the quiet.

This episode isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about checking in, naming what’s off, and starting the conversation again.
