Dom and D dive deep into the complexities of professional boundaries, cultural identity, and the lighter side of life.

They start by tackling the friction of modern workplace dynamics—and how to handle unprofessional behavior with firm boundaries. Then, they pivot to the cultural significance of the World Cup and why we’re dreaming up "Football for the Hood" to make the sport more relatable and accessible.

Later, the conversation gets spicy as we break down:

-Relationship Truths: Comedian Haha Davis joins the mix to share his candid—and hilarious—experience with swinging and the lessons learned.

The whole crew from is all together in person for an expansive deep dive into the cultural touchstones that shaped a generation. In this episode, we move beyond surface-level takes to dissect the complex legacy of Eddie Murphy’s iconic 1982–1992 film run, specifically examining Arsenio Hall’s crucial role in sustaining Murphy’s momentum during that era.  

We also turn up the heat on our recurring music debates. We face the tough questions: Does Ludacris have a true "classic" album, and how do the legendary discographies of Toni Braxton and Donell Jones stack up against one another? We also pay respects to the 30-year legacy of UGK’s Ridin Dirty, analyzing how Bun B and Pimp C fundamentally shifted the trajectory of Southern hip-hop.

Beyond the music, we tackle the heavy hitters of pop culture—from the mysterious "Oscar Curse" that haunts award-winning actors to the ongoing discourse surrounding the need for a unified Juneteenth anthem. Plus, we discuss the A Different World reboot and the evolving struggle between maintaining celebrity privacy in the age of social media.

What if the most dominant record label of the early 2000s never faced federal charges?  

In this episode of Hip Hop What Ifs, hosts D and 12 Kyle break down the rise, the fall, and the alternate history of Murder Inc. Records. From Irv Gotti’s hit-making formula—pairing gritty lyrics with smooth R&B hooks—to the meteoric rise of Ja Rule and Ashanti, Murder Inc. was once the undisputed king of radio.

But in 2003, the momentum hit a wall when federal agents raided the offices, alleging ties to the "Supreme Team" and Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff. We discuss whether it was truly the federal investigation that killed the label’s momentum, or if the ruthless 50 Cent vs. Ja Rule rivalry was the real nail in the coffin.  

In this episode, we discuss:

-The genius of Irv Gotti and the blueprint for the early 2000s sound.
-The "What If" factor: Could Murder Inc. have survived the shift to the G-Unit era?  
-The impact of the 50 Cent and Ja Rule feud on the label’s credibility. 
-The legacy of Ja Rule and Ashanti as enduring icons.

Dom and D are back with  episode of Everyone Needs an Aquarius, where they break down the latest in pop culture, parenting, and politics with their signature humor and no-nonsense approach. This week, the duo cuts through the noise, starting with an honest debate about the "gentle parenting" trend—is it actually just permissive parenting in disguise?

The conversation shifts to the entertainment world as they dissect the fallout from Tony Hinchcliffe’s recent roast and why Kevin Hart’s defense of the comedy landscape sparked such a massive cultural debate. From there, they tackle the wild headlines of the week, including Ray J’s celebrity MMA fight, the political buzz surrounding Jaxson Dart’s endorsements, and the bizarre saga of Cheyenne Bryant’s alleged "mayoral run." They wrap up with a fascinating historical comparison, contrasting the modern antics of "Chud the Builder" with the radical legacy of abolitionist John Brown.

In this episode of Everyone Needs an Aquarius, Dom and D sit down with health advocate Dre Whitt of Minority Health Partners for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the gap between critical health advocacy and the pulse of pop culture.

We dive into the urgent need for men’s mental and physical health awareness, tackling systemic healthcare inequities that disproportionately impact Black communities. Dre also uncovers the powerful, often forgotten history of St. Louis’s Homer G. Phillips Hospital—a "Black mecca" of medicine that once trained half of the world’s Black doctors—and discusses the work still needed to achieve true equity in healthcare today.

Finally, we turn our attention to the culture. We get into an unfiltered debate about the modern state of hip-hop, including the complex discourse surrounding Drake, the significance of his collaborative history, and the questions of cultural "vibranium," gatekeeping, and identity in today’s rap landscape.

In this episode of I Only Listen to 90s Music, Darryl, Stacey, and Scott celebrate the 40th anniversary of Janet Jackson’s revolutionary "Control" album.

The crew provide a deep-dive review of the highly anticipated Michael Jackson biopic, Michael. The team explores whether this big-budget production successfully captures the King of Pop’s legacy or if it remains in the shadow of the 1992 miniseries The Jacksons: An American Dream. The discussion covers everything from Jafar Jackson’s uncanny performance to the casting choices for Joe Jackson, including a candid critique of the film's prosthetic work.

Beyond the technicalities of the film, they analyze the historical accuracies of the timeline, the notable absence of siblings like Janet and Randy, and the missed opportunities to showcase the creative genius behind Off the Wall and Thriller. The conversation also touches on music history milestones, such as the true story of the first Black artist on MTV and the impact of the Pepsi commercial era. Finally, the episode addresses the heated debate surrounding the 90s R&B bracket as the hosts respond to listener voicemails questioning if New Edition really deserved to win over heavyweights like Jodeci and Boyz II Men.
