On this episode, we pay tribute to Jesse Jackson and the political and cultural groundwork he laid—what it meant then and what it means now. We revisit America’s Next Top Model and unpack its layered legacy: the doors it opened, the standards it reinforced, and the conversations we’re still having because of it.

We also get into real-life side comments about Arkansas—how regional bias shows up in everyday spaces and why the South is always more nuanced than people give it credit for. Then we tap into BroRilla’s momentum, reflect on Lil Wayne’s lyrical history, and give our take on the viral sensation Mr. Tendernism.

It’s culture, context, and commentary—no fluff.

Bolly and Eliott take over AAMOB to discuss The Wire.

Special Guest Eliott joins us to break down the latest in pop culture. We tackle gala season, sexual indiscretions at work, Power 92 Radio Station "Hot Mic', favorite dirty macking songs and issues with rising black maternal mortality rates in the United States. You don't wanna miss this.
