Let’s hear it. So, we’re gonna break down some of the points in his speech. WAS IT WRONG FOR JAY-Z TO USE THIS TIME TO CRITICIZE THE GRAMMYs WHILE ACCEPTING A GRAMMY? DOES HE GET CREDIT FOR ADVOCATING FOR BEYONCE (ESPECIALLY IN FRONT OF BLUE IVY)? DOES BEYONCE MAKE GOOD ALBUMS  OR GOOD SINGLES? BECAUSE RICH, OUT-OF-TOUCH WHITE PEOPLE ARE ON THE BOARD VOTING SHOULD BLACK FOLKS BOYCOTT THE GRAMMYS? (8:26) - VOTING AND VENTINGIT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW, I’M AMANDA SEALES… IT’S TIME FOR – VOTING AND VENTING! THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY (AND MINE) TO VENT ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO VOTING– CONTEMPLATING WHO SHOULD GET YOUR VOTE? VEXED ABOUT CERTAIN LAWS BEING VOTED ON IN YOUR CITY? WE WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT! IT’S TIME TO VENT. LET’S GO TO THE PHONE LINES. 1 855 AMANDA 8. · WHAT DO YOU WANT TO VENT ABOUT TODAY? CALLER #1 (11:35) - 60 SEC HEADLINES STORY 1Toni Braxton and Cedric The Entertainer will soon be hitting The Strip together, as the pair are set to co-headline a new residency in Las Vegas. It will run this April thru July. STORY 2:  U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin made his first public appearance since he was hospitalized over complications of a procedure to treat prostate cancer.  He apologized for his lack of disclosure, and is now urging Americans particularly Black men to take care of their healthSTORY 3: Michael “Killer Mike” Render was released on his own recognizance on Sunday night after being arrested following his win of three Grammy Awards during the pre-televised portion of the event. STORY 4: The African American Film Critics Association, has  announced a groundbreaking partnership with Delta Air Lines to curate a unique collection of films celebrating Black History Month. (14:51) - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!TINASHE THE LATE BOB MARLEY THE LATE NATALIE COLE THE LATE RONALD REAGANCOMING UP THIS HOUR IN BLACKURATE NEWS: THE UNITED STATES HAS UPDATED THE TRAVEL ADVISORY FOR JAMAICA DUE TO WHAT THEY SAY IS AN UPTICK IN UNSAFE CONDITIONS. IN CELEBRATION OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH WE’VE ALSO GOT A MOMENT IN BLACK HOOD HISTORY. PLUS, THE BIG UP/LET DOWN… WHICH TODAY INVOLVES A CRITIC, A TIP AND AN APOLOGY. (17:27) - BLACKURATE NEWSIT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW! I’M AMANDA SEALES… AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR SOME BLACKURATE NEWS. STORY 1: The U.S. State Department issued a Level 3 travel advisory for Jamaica, urging Americans to exercise “increased caution” due to an increase in violent crimes.  According to the text, incidents such as home invasions, armed robberies, sexual assaults, and homicide are common in the country and sexual assaults are frequent, including at all-inclusive resorts. News Nation travel editor Peter Greenberg said “The good news is, in most cases, these crimes are not crimes committed or targeted at travelers or tourists. They’re gang versus gang crimes, much like we’ve seen in Mexico over the last 15 years. And the same applies to Jamaica.” Gotta be careful with ANY messaging coming from the U.S. What should be the travel advisories for people coming to America ? Be careful existing while Black.. Or gay… or non-Christian. DC and the Bay Don’t leave anything on your seats in Atlanta. Actually, if you can take the seat out of your car, do it.  American tourism has really ravaged our caribbean countries Jamaica’s can’t even use the beach. Hawaiians don't want us there Just ‘cause we’re in the diaspora doesn't mean you won’t get jacked. Travel SMART. (21:48) - A MOMENT IN BLACK HOOD HISTORYIt is Black History Month, but in this segment, we’re taking a different approach than repeating the same BHM talking points. This is your “MOMENTS IN BLACK HOOD HISTORY,” a tribute to little known historical facts that originated in the HOOD. Kool Aid was invented by a white man in 1927, but it was the Black community that transformed Kool Aid FLAVORS into COLORS.  It was a summer day in the South. The Black mother standing inside the kitchen with a squeaky screen door, said to her Black child, “Go make me some Kool aid, to which the child replied, what kind?”  Black mother said– RED Koolaid, and the rest is history. The child instantly knew his mother’s desires. The words “cherry or strawberry” Kool Aid haven't been uttered since. Thanks to Black people for the popularization of Kool Aid flavors! (23:49) - BIG UP, LET DOWNIT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW! I’M AMANDA SEALES… AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR!... THE BIG UP, LET DOWN. BIG UP -to food reviewer Keith Lee for defying the “black people don’t tip” stereotype. ·         Keith visited the Sweetly Seasoned food truck in Dallas.  He told the owner to charge his card for $4,000.  He decided to bless the owner, her son, and two individuals doing hair outside the truck He expressed that $1K should go to a barber, another $1K to a woman doing braids, and the rest to Kim Viverette (owner) and her son to help their business. BIG UP TO KEITH for leading by example and tipping, ‘cause some of us HATE TIPPING and will find any reason not to. Will order up the whole menu, Hennessey Mimosas, seafood towers, but get “cheap” when it’s time to tip.  Update: the owner has apologized as she did not honor Lee’s request and instead kept the entire $4K  LET DOWN - JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE FOR IMMATURELY AND EMBARRASSINGLY LIVING UP TO HIS OWN SONG TITLE  “SELFISH”  Justin Timberlake told a New York City audience he’d “like to take this opportunity to apologize — to absolutely f---ing nobody,” just days after Britney Spears said she was sorry about comments in her book  It was a profane non-apology to an Irving Plaza crowd right before he sang the 2013 hit "Holy Grail," a Jay-Z track he is featured on.  THIS WAS A SELFISH, SELF-CENTERED MOVE, BECAUSE YOU AIN’T JAY-Z, JUSTIN!  I CAN THINK OF A FEW PEOPLE YOU NEED TO APOLOGIZE TO!  Britney Spears Janet Jackson Michael Jackson (28:14) - CALLERIT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW!

(32:59) - POP CULTUREThis clip on the internet caught my attention and dissension. Listen to what NBA player, MICHAEL PORTER JR. had to say about light-skinned brothers TO some darker-skinned brothers on the PIVOT podcast. Yep. Here’s what Van Lathan had to say in response. AND HERE’S WHAT I HAVE TO SAY. ACTUALLY, I HAVE A THEORY ABOUT THIS. Amanda: Yup I been talking bout this. All these shows and commercials it's always a biracial couple. Yt men who perpetuate yt supremacy have never truly cared about their women other than for power purposes so it would come as no surprise that they would consciously present images of yt women with black men as a method of dismantling the black family, black identity, and obtaining opps to further their yt supremacist agenda.

Burned Jackie Robinson Statue, Tyrese’s Latest Comments, A Man Gets Mad At His Lady For Using A Filter On Social Media, and More From The Amanda Seales Show

Amanda dives into a variety of topics that are both thought-provoking and entertaining. The Blackurate News segment kicks things off, covering the debate in Wisconsin about affirmative action and whether state colleges should consider race or gender for student aid eligibility. Amanda provides insights into the discussion, offering a balanced perspective. The Pop Culture segment takes an interesting turn with Tyrese's controversial comments on social media. Amanda dissects his remarks, offering a humorous yet insightful critique. The 60-Second Headlines bring you up to speed with quick updates on topics ranging from legal matters involving Donald Trump to Killer Mike's eventful Grammys night. Amanda celebrates birthdays and shares updates on the Ahmaud Arbery case with Attorney Gerald Griggs. The Big Up, Let Down segment covers a canceled wedding and a problematic article on cultural appropriation during Black History Month. Blackurate News takes a serious turn with the unfortunate incident involving the stolen and burned Jackie Robinson statue in Wichita, Kansas. The Group Chat dives into a perpetual conversation about beauty standards, sparked by a TikTok video challenging the use of filters. Tune in to The Amanda Seales Show for a blend of humor, critical analysis, and engaging conversations that make for an enjoyable and enlightening podcast experience! Listen, Laugh, and Learn on The Amanda Seales Show! FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   (2:49) - BLACKURATE NEWS Lawmakers in Madison, Wisconsin, recently debated whether state colleges and universities should be barred from considering race or gender when determining if a student is eligible for aid (affirmative action). Under the Republican bill, admission into programs, and tuition assistance that's aimed at disadvantaged students, could only consider the wealth of the student and their family. Sen. Eric Wimberger, Republican of Green Bay, Wisconsin, one of the bill's co-authors, said he acknowledged the lingering effects of racism, but he maintained race-based programs and assistance in higher education would enable bad actors more than it'd help underserved people.   (7:47) - POP CULTURE This story is the essence of “they should’ve never gave y’all social media.” Tyrese, who we all respect for his voice and talents… stay Tyresing. He posted a video of a Latino family doing family-oriented things, and in his caption demeaned and berated the entire BLACK race.   (12:43) - 60 SECOND HEADLINES Tanya Chutkan, the federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020 election interference case, is postponing the trial until his appeals play out on the question of whether presidential immunity protects him from being prosecuted. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has acknowledged her personal relationship with Nathan Wade… the lead prosecutor on the Trump case, but says it doesn’t disqualify her. Welcome Home Franklin! A new ‘Peanuts’ special will finally let Franklin, the first Black Peanut character, sit by White friends (Charlie Brown, Peppermint Patty, Linus, Pig Pen and the gang). Killer Mike's Grammys night came to an early end last night... because he was led out of the event in handcuffs -- after an alleged physical altercation with a security guard.   (15:09) – We’ll go to the phonelines.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IF YOU’RE CELEBRATING YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY: ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOO: BOBBY BROWN, TIM MEADOWS, KEVIN GATES, THE LATE HANK AARON COMING UP: ATTORNEY GERALD GRIGGS WILL JOIN US WITH AN UPDATE ON THE AHMAUD ARBURY CASE… THE MEN THAT WERE CHARGED FOR HIS DEATH HAVE BEEN GRANTED AN APPEALS COURT DATE… PLUS, THE BIG UP, LET DOWN… WHICH TODAY INVOLVES A BREAK UP… A RECEPTION… AND A FADE.   (19:34) - ATTORNEY GERALD GRIGGS IT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW… I’M AMANDA SEALES… AND IT’S TIME FOR BLACKURATE NEWS. Welcome Attorney Gerald Griggs back to the show. He’s an Advocate, Activist, and Justice Fighter. He’s here with us today with an update on the Ahmaud Arbury case… and the 3 white men that were convicted of killing him. Before we jump in, give us a brief overview of this case for those who may not remember.   (24:05) - ATTORNEY GERALD GRIGGS – Part 2   (28:39) - BIG UP, LET DOWN BIG UP - to an almost bride-to-be in California for her generosity and foresight!! An anonymous woman in California learned “something” (hmmm) about her fiancé’ and decided to call their wedding off. BUT she’d already paid a $15k non-refundable fee for the wedding reception. Double BIG up: she donated the reception party to a non-profit called Parents Helping Parents which provides community support to parents with children who have special needs. AND she and her almost-husband didn’t waste anybody’s time or money by getting married into a chaotic situation. Some people would’ve been like, “Oh we finna have this reception, so we don’t waste money!”   LET DOWN - to piss poor journalism and cultural appropriation during Black History Month. Superbowl-bound Chiefs player Travis Kelce has made the news recently for popularizing the FADE haircut, y’all! Yes, the hairstyle Black men have been rocking since the Black ICE ages. New York Times’ Alyson Krueger titled an article, “They’ll Take the Travis Kelce — Hairdo, That Is.” Apparently a lot of men are taking to their local barbershops and asking for a haircut similar to Kelce’s. The article cites a TikTok video from barber Jeff Dugas saying that his brother came in with photos of Kelce for reference. It also cites a different TikTok video from barber Nigel Miller, who said his client was going for “that Travis Kelce look.” WHAT ARE WE DOING?! This is just bad journalism and poor research! White folks gone find a way to take the credit for Black swag one way or another. On the football field, behind a typewriter, in the newsroom…   (32:50) - WEEKEND RECAP IT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW… I’M AMANDA SEALES…   (35:17) - WE UP, WE UP, WE UP!! IT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW… I’M AMANDA SEALES… COMING UP THIS. BLACKURATE NEWS: WE’LL TALK ABOUT THE JACKIE ROBINSON STATUE THAT WAS STOLEN IN WICHITA, KANSAS… WHAT TILL YOU HEAR WHAT HAPPENED. SMALL DOSES SEGMENT - (SIDE EFFECTS OF PRISON FEMINISM) WITH MY GUEST RICHIE RESEDA.   (37:23) - BLACKURATE NEWS America is not a racist country they say! Well why was the statue of the first Major League baseball player, Jackie Robinson, cut off at the ankles and burned in Wichita, Kansas? You heard me! Someone(s) cut the statue off at the ankles, stole it and it was later found burned in a public trash container. Thanks to a GoFundMe campaign, at least $175,000 has been received to fund the replacement. Other facts The Jackie Robinson statue, which officials valued at $75,000, was designed by the late artist John Parsons. Lutz previously said the new statue will be created from an existing mold of Parsons’ original work. Money that is raised beyond the cost of the statue’s replacement will go toward supporting the league and improvements at the pavilion where the statue is displayed, including additional security, according to League 42.   (40:25) - KICK OFF - GROUP CHAT TOPIC OF THE WEEK Well, this seems like the conversation that never ends, it just goes on and on, my friends!

Will Taylor Swift Endorse President Biden, Supreme Splanin, Drone Attack Claims The Lives Of 3 Black Soldiers, and More from The Amanda Seales Show

In this episode, Amanda discusses National Backwards Day and delves into pressing issues, such as the unfortunate drone attack that claimed the lives of three Black U.S. soldiers in Jordan. The show introduces a new segment, "Supreme Splanin'," featuring DJ Supreme. Amanda also provides advice in "Am I Trippin'" and explores a BloP Quiz to test your knowledge of Black pop culture. Listen, Laugh, and Learn on The Amanda Seales Show! FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   Certainly! Here are the reformatted timestamps for the provided copy: (3:01) - blackurate news It’s the Amanda Seales show, i’m Amanda Seales.. And it’s time for blackurate news… We extend our deepest condolences to the loved ones of the three black american soldiers killed in a drone attack in jordan last weekend. They were killed in their housing units at an american military outpost in a country that is strategically located in a region beset by military conflict, including iran, which is believed to be the source of the fatal drone attack. The dominance of black americans in military service makes them most likely to be put in harm’s way on behalf of the nation. Soldiers are often offered large signing bonuses (especially for potentially hazardous military jobs), but don’t know what they’re signing up for. They’re deployed and either become casualties, or return and suffer from ptsd and suicidal thoughts. Recruiters go to the hood to manipulate and exploit the impoverished or less fortunate.   (7:45) - pop culture It’s the amanda seales show… i’m amanda seales with a lighthearted story! Story 2: “easy,” singer lionel richie recently gave a hard no on being called grandpa. The singer’s youngest daughter sofia is expecting her first child with husband elliot grainge, and lionel revealed the name his daughter’s baby girl will call him. “i’m pop-pop. We don’t get the ‘grandpa,’ yeah, that’s a little deep. Pop-pop is where we’re going.”   (11:13) - 60 second headlines Now it’s time for 60 second headlines. Story 1: president biden is reportedly eager to secure an endorsement from taylor swift for his 2024 re-election campaign… his camp seemingly believes her massive impact will positively influence votes. Story 2: ludacris has teamed up with bet to create a 30 minute dramedy series that is based on his life, highlighting the competitive music scene in atlanta as radio. Story 3: the three white men convicted of a federal hate crime for killing ahmaud arbery in 2020 will have their appeals heard by a federal court in march. Story 4: megan thee stallion has officially announced that will be dropping her 3rd studio album this summer, along with her hot girl summer tour 2024.   (14:37) - we’ll go to the phone lines.

Big up -to target!!! For endorsing black joy (before black history month) they dropped a popular clothing collection with the slogan, “black joy is revolutionary.” It looks fly. Word on the street is it feels fly too. Carlton mackey the creator of black men smile®, said, “we believe that black joy is revolutionary because of all that it must resist and the ways it must persist in order to simply exist.” Let down - to the white lady who went to that same target and was so disturbed by black joy that she tweeted about it. · in response to a black little girl smiling on a poster in her black joy outfit, @ deb_ fillman’s tweet said: o target is    insufferable. Had to do a return and can’t wait to leave. Ma’am. How the f is a black girl’s smile insufferable?! That you are free to display your racism on a platform run by a racist (musk) is insufferable what would you rather see? A poster of a black family frowning and struggling? Who knew black joy got karens’ drawls in a bunch? You know what – i’m feeling spicy today. How about we have a double let down.

(Hannibal’s skin color is not known)   French-language Tunisian news outlet La Presse published an article saying the casting created “a historical error,” and some users accused Netflix of promoting “woke culture”.

She sought the abortion after learning her fetus has a fatal condition and doctors told her she could risk her future fertility if she doesn’t get the procedure. On Monday, the Center for Reproductive Rights announced the 31-year-old mother had left Texas to get health care elsewhere following what the group that represents Cox described as “a week of legal whiplash.”   (25:57) - That’s Not My Ministry w/ Rita Brent #Tattoos   (29:03) - BIG UP - to the Montgomery Brawl folding chair‘s WHITENESS for paying off!

Diddy Steps Down From Revolt, Charles Barkley and Gayle King Collab, and What Happened With T.I. and Tiny’s Son King

Amanda kicks off by checking in on everyone's post-Thanksgiving food comas and highlights that it's National Lemon Cream Pie Day (lactose-intolerant folks beware!). The show delves into crucial topics, starting with a U.S. Court of Appeals decision impacting discrimination in state and local elections laws, potentially affecting voters of color nationwide. The trial of rapper Young Thug takes center stage, Tiffany Haddish's recent arrest, Charles Barkley and Gayle King's collaboration, and Sean 'Diddy' Combs stepping down from REVOLT. Blackurate News brings global perspectives on leaders calling for a ceasefire, and Rita Brent's "That's Not My Ministry" warns against discussing a certain celebrity's daughter.

Tim Scott suspending his presidential campaign to Snoop Dogg launching Death Row Games. The show introduces the new segment "Am I Trippin," offering advice on life's dilemmas. Plus, a Big Up/Let Down involving André 3000's unexpected move into flute-playing. The episode wraps up with phone calls, quizzes, and laughter. Tune in for the latest insights, laughs, and Amanda's unique perspective! FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   (4:19) - Jill Stein announced that she would seek the Green Party nomination for the second time. Stein’s case for her candidacy, as she tells it, is to “offer a choice for the people outside the failed two-party system.” Stein’s abrupt relaunch into presidential politics comes weeks after Cornel West, a leading academic and progressive activist, decided to run as an independent after formerly campaigning with the Green Party.   (8:47) - Judge Ural Granville granted prosecutors the right to present a collective of Young Thug’s rap lyrics in the trial against him and his YSL (Young Slime Life) associates amid their controversial RICO case. While Young Thug’s defense team assured that the singles were only done in an artistically-driven manner, the court settled unfavorably, reportedly citing that their stance was “ridiculous.” Rapper Meek Mill said: “Locking us [up] for rapping got me scared to do [an] interview. Free Jeff. Free Lucci.”   (14:30) – 60 Second Headlines   STORY 1: Sen. Tim Scott has announced that he is suspending his presidential campaign, which failed to meet high expectations that the South Carolina Republican would at least go deep into the primary season.   STORY 2: Snoop Dogg and his son, Cordell Broadus, have launched Death Row Games.

The Big Up Let Down involves an André 3000 and a flute.   (24:56) - Am I Trippin? Every day we all have those moments that make us double take, scratch our chins, and ask ourselves, am I trippin? Well, when you do, send us a DM @SealesSaidIt and tell us about your dilemma, and I’ll weigh in on whether you’re tripping like Ella Mai or somebody playing in your face. TODAY’S DILEMMA: My best friend has been dating this guy for about 6-7 months now, and it’s been clear that she isn’t into him like he’s into her. He’s not a bad guy or anything, but from what she says, he’s just not keeping her attention. I think it’s partially because her ex spun the block recently to holla, but that’s a whole other story. Anyways, she decided to just break up with her current boyfriend about 2 weeks ago, and I ran into him at a mutual friend's party. He was clearly still upset and literally was crying on the balcony asking if there was anything I could do to help him save the relationship. I do feel bad for him, but I’m not trying to be in my friend's relationship drama. Am I right for staying out of it, or am I tripping?   (26:30) - It’s The Amanda Seales Show… I’m Amanda Seales… Last break we introduced a new segment called “Am I Trippin?” where I weigh in on the dilemmas that have you conflicted. Today’s question came in anonymously from a friend conflicted on whether they should get involved with their best friend’s relationship after her ex was asking for help getting back together. They don’t want to but feel bad for the guy. Here are my thoughts:   (29:17) - Big Up - shout out to André 3000! Announced a debut solo album titled “New Blue Sun". A couple of titles of tracks on the album: Dreams Once Buried Beneath The Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Into Undying Gardens; That Night In Hawaii When I Turned Into A Panther And Started Making These Low Register Purring Tones That I Couldn't Control ... S*** Was Wild. On this album, he is reintroducing himself as a flutist. Let Down - WAIT WHAT?! HE’S PLAYING FLUTE AND NOT RAPPING?! I CHANGED MY MIND; THIS IS A LET DOWN.   (34:05) - Our phone lines are open, 24/7 at 855-AMANDA-8. That’s 855-262-6328! I always like to hear from you. So call me!   (37:45) - Coming up this hour….

DoorDash’s New Tipping Policies, J. Cole vs Soulja Boy, and Violent Protests Are Breaking Out In Bangladesh

In this episode, Amanda Seales covers a variety of news and topics. She discusses how the handling of the war in Gaza by President Biden might affect young voters' turnout in the upcoming elections. DoorDash is warning customers that they may receive slower service if they don't tip their drivers, a move aimed at encouraging better compensation for delivery personnel. The episode also touches on issues like the Supreme Court's decision regarding domestic abusers' rights to gun ownership and the recent beef between Soulja Boy and J. Cole. Moreover, there's a segment on the theft of oxtails by two Texas men and their humorous yet somewhat impractical approach to it. It also highlights significant legal issues and features an amusing "Issa Black Pop Quiz" to round out the episode.   Listen, Laugh, and Learn with The Amanda Seales Show   FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   (02:35) - The leaders of progressive groups focused on mobilizing young voters are warning President Biden that his handling of the war in Gaza could depress turnout in a demographic that’s already notoriously difficult to energize on Election Day.   (08:19) - If you are thinking of skimping on a DoorDash tip, do so at your own risk. DoorDash is testing a new system and warning their customers that you may get bad or slow service if you don’t tip your driver.

But conditions are dire for many of the sector's four million workers, the vast majority of whom are women whose monthly wages start at 8,300 taka ($75).   (26:33) - Soulja Boy has had a change of heart after going at J. Cole for “dissing” him. Last week, J. Cole went on Lil Yachty’s podcast and had this to say about Soulja Boy’s emergence in hip hop.   (32:20) - BIG UP - To TWO TEXAS men who “allegedly” stole over $1,000 worth of Ox Tails– for being modern-day Robin Hoods and doing the Lord’s work (as we get closer to Thanksgiving). Two Texas men were arrested for allegedly making off with almost 50 packs of expensive cuts of meat from various grocery stores. The oxtails, shrimp, lamb chops, steaks, and brisket reportedly came from four separate stores– Walmart, H-E-B, Food Town, and Kroger. STORES BE RUNNING OUT OF ISH! THIS IS GOOD OLE’ PREPAREDNESS AND FORESIGHT. FURTHERMORE, STORES HAVE BEEN PRICE GOUGING OXTAILS.

Back At It Still Smelling Like A Vacay | EPISODE 145

In this episode of the Amanda Seales Show, Amanda discusses the recent Supreme Court rulings on Affirmative Action, student loans, and LGBTQ rights. She also talks about Threads passing 70 million sign-ups, Keke Palmer and Darius Jackson’s messy breakup, and Essence Fest.

The pool cleaner, Karl Polek, was not hit by any bullets, but he did sustain minor injuries from shrapnel and flying glass.

There’s A Right And Wrong Way To Celebrate Juneteenth | EPISODE 133

On June 13, 2023, Illinois became the first state to ban book bans. The new law, which was passed by the state legislature and signed into law by Governor J.B. Pritzker, makes it illegal for school districts to remove books from their libraries simply because they are considered to be controversial or offensive. The law was passed in response to a growing trend of book bans across the country. In recent years, there have been numerous reports of school districts removing books from their libraries, often at the urging of parents who object to the books' content. The new law in Illinois is an attempt to protect the first amendment rights of students and to ensure that they have access to a wide range of viewpoints. On June 14, 2023, Anita Baker announced that she was removing Babyface from her upcoming tour. The two singers were scheduled to co-headline a tour in support of their new albums, but Baker said that she had made the decision to remove Babyface after he made "insensitive" comments about her weight. In an interview with Essence magazine, babyface said that he had made the comments in jest, but that he understood why Baker was upset. He apologized for his comments and said that he hoped that Baker would reconsider her decision to remove him from the tour. On June 15, 2023, Tyler Perry announced that he was buying BET. The deal, which is reportedly worth $2.5 Billion, will make Perry the sole owner of the network. Perry said that he bought BET because he wanted to "give a voice to the voiceless" and to "create a platform for black excellence." he also said that he wanted to make bet more relevant to the current generation of Black viewers. The deal is expected to close in early 2024.

Don't Be Good Be Great! | EPISODE 131

Donald Trump has been indicted on seven counts of felony obstruction of justice and two counts of making false statements to Congress. The charges stem from Trump's attempts to obstruct the Special Counsel's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.DC Young Fly gave a very heartfelt speech at the funeral of his “partner” Jacky Oh. Jacky Oh was a close friend and collaborator of DC Young Fly, and his death was a major loss for the comedy community. DC Young Fly's speech was a moving tribute to his friend, and it showed the deep love and respect that he had for Jacky Oh. Prosecutors are seeking a 13-year prison sentence for rapper Tory Lanez, who was convicted of shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot last year. Lanez was found guilty of one count of assault with a semiautomatic firearm and one count of carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle. Prosecutors argued that Lanez's actions were reckless and dangerous, and that he should be held accountable for the injuries he caused Megan Thee Stallion. The Supreme Court has blocked a new Alabama law that would have made it more difficult for Black voters to cast ballots. The law would have required voters to show photo ID at the polls, and it would have eliminated same-day registration and early voting. The Supreme Court ruled that the law would have disproportionately impacted Black voters, and that it violated the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

DeSantis is a rising star in the Republican party and is seen as a potential challenger to President Biden.  Uber's chief diversity officer, Aarthi Ramachandran, hosted a series of events called “Karen” about the “White Woman’s Experience.” The events were met with criticism from some who accused Ramachandran of being insensitive to the experiences of Black and brown women.  Activists are calling for a boycott of Adidas after the company featured a biological male in a women's swimsuit campaign.

Stay Outta Florida | EPISODE 119

The episode begins with Seales discussing the NAACP's recent travel advisory to avoid Florida. The advisory was issued in response to a number of recent laws passed in the state that have been seen as discriminatory, including a law that bans transgender girls from playing on girls' sports teams. Seales argues that the advisory is a necessary step to protect people from the harmful effects of these laws. Next, Seales discusses Instagram's plans to launch a Twitter-like app this summer. The app, which is code-named "Project Owl," is said to be designed to compete with Twitter by offering a more user-friendly experience. Seales is skeptical of the app's success, arguing that Instagram is already a crowded market and that Twitter is unlikely to be displaced. Later in the episode, Seales discusses a story about a teacher who was banned from school after allowing a student to wear a KKK costume. The teacher, who is black, said that she allowed the student to wear the costume as a way to teach about racism. However, the school district disagreed, saying that the costume was offensive and that it created a hostile learning environment. Seales argues that the teacher was right to allow the student to wear the costume, and that the school district's decision was a form of censorship. The episode ends with Seales discussing a story about women who refused to stand on the winner's podium after a transgender cyclist finished in first place in the women's category. The women, who are all cisgender, said that they felt that it was unfair for a transgender woman to compete in the women's category. Seales argues that the women are wrong, and that transgender women are women. She also argues that the women's refusal to stand on the podium is a form of discrimination. Overall, the episode is a thought-provoking look at a number of current events. Seales is a strong and opinionated host, and she does not shy away from controversial topics. The episode is sure to spark discussion and debate.
