University College

You know what time it is! Welcome back to University College Podcast. This week, we get right to it with an in-depth discussion about the current Democratic hopefuls and the Kaepernick situation that has everyone throwing in their opinions.

Episode 87 has quite of bit of everything. We recapped the last Democratic Presidential Nominee Debate, including:

- Does tarnishing Obama's legacy work?

- Why can't Kamala rise in the polls?

- Why is Elizabeth surging?

- Are you now a member of the Yang Gang?

We also discuss the horrific practice of separating families at the border and putting children in cages.

It’s been a few weeks, so welcome back to University College. This week, we welcome Morehouse man Jason Keene on the show to discuss the recent graduation gift bestowed upon the Morehouse graduating class of 2019. Will the gesture by billionaire Robert F. Smith start a new trend among HBCUs or PWIs? How insufferable will Morehouse graduates be now?

Ava DuVernay’s most recent project, When They See Us, was released a few weeks back. While overall reaction has been positive, should this film be a springboard to have conversations with other races about current injustices? If you’re one of our listeners and you are Black, is it your obligation to educated non-Black people about the perils of racism, systemic oppression and more?

We close out with one of the greatest American treasures that we have: Angry Curt. We won’t divulge any other clues, but you’ll want to hear it.

We appreciate your continued support and shoot us any feedback you have!

We’re back for another episode of the University College! In an already-crowded Democratic field, the choices for the primary only keep increasing. We play a quick game of “First Word You Think” about the most noteworthy names in the field: Warren, Kamala, Bernie, Joe, Corey, etc. Also, do any of these candidates have a legitimate shot at the political throne, or is it too early to tell?

There’s no doubt that the Jussie Smollet story has garnered quite a bit of attention? Do we think he’s telling the truth? It is certainly a strange story but listen to our discussion to hear our views on that, and the broader topic of why it can be difficult to express an opinion that is contrary to the “mob”.

Finally, how many Nike executives contacted Duke, Coach K, and Zion when Zion’s shoe exploded in one of the biggest games of the year? Did Nike just lose the next “sure thing” before he even got to the league?

As always, we love to hear your feedback, and thanks for listening.

New year, new you? Not so much for POTUS. This week, we discuss the path from owning the shut down to blaming the Democrats for it--and more importantly the impact on the American people. Recently, it was announced that Michael Cohen, Trump's former fixer, is scheduled to testify in open session on February 7th. Will his testimony lead to any additional information or is this all for show? Lastly, we discuss the R. Kelly documentary and the rightful destruction of his legacy.

You all didn’t really think we’d let 2018 close out without another episode, did you? In this episode, Curtiss, Mike and I discuss the latest Trump news, and the fallout for Kevin Hart and Marc Lamont Hill.

Also, don’t look now—but Mike had to have “the talk” with his daughter. He’ll tell you how that went.

To our faithful listeners, we truly appreciate your support. If you’re a new listener, listen to a few episodes and let us know what you think. We’re always open to feedback.

From our families to yours, we wish you a belated Merry Christmas, and a peaceful and prosperous New Year!
