Episode 009 | Riot Fatigue & Overdue Conversations

The crew is back and we’re kicking it off with Haitian American rising star Thad Jean fresh off a razor-close battle against Jamaican veteran Jason Jackson, earning a split-decision victory. 

Then we get into the heavy stuff: Should Black folks even care about the 2025 LA Riots? We break down the real vs. performative outrage, and ask if we only show up when the narrative fits us.

From there, it gets personal — have we outgrown the “hood” events we used to love? Is it growth or guilt when you stop showing up to the same spots that raised you? Then we ask, can you ever really go back without feeling like a target?

Later, a viral video of a toxic couple turned tragic sparks a tough convo about knowing when to step in — and whether men or women carry more blame when love becomes lethal.

We wrap it up with a nostalgic 87 or 93 Quickfire: It’s 1995 again. No WiFi, no smartphones. What are you doing first?
