    Full EP | Critics notice glaring omissions in Michael Jackson biopic; Should man pay for date’s babysitter; Third suspect in murder of Jam Master Jay pleads guilty; Five reasons it COULD be a hoax; and More  

    Critics are calling out major omissions in Michael, the new Michael Jackson biopic, noting the absence of key figures like Diana Ross and The Wiz, as well as any meaningful treatment of the abuse allegations that shaped the final decades of Jackson’s life. Multiple outlets report those exclusions stem from legal constraints tied to past settlements, with the Jackson estate allegedly spending roughly $15 million on reshoots to comply, fueling debate over whether the film is a tribute or a sanitized narrative. Meanwhile, long‑delayed justice moved forward as Jay Bryant, the third suspect in the 2002 murder of Run‑DMC icon Jam Master Jay, pleaded guilty to helping gunmen access the studio where the DJ was killed — a case rooted in a drug deal gone wrong and unresolved for over two decades.   On a lighter but still fiery note, the crew debated during The Question of the Day — whether a man should pay for a date’s babysitter after a viral clip showed a woman demanding $250 up front. On My Top 5, D: and Jasmine gave the five top reasons why the White House Correspondent’s Dinner shooting could be hoax. Not that it is a hoax, but they are just saying.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | DOJ reinstating lethal injections and adding firing squad; Should ex-wife get more money from the new wife; Actor and director Bill Duke joins DLHS crew; Shooting at White House Correspondent’s Dinner alarms DLHS crew; and More

    This episode of The DL Hughley Show Podcast dives headfirst into a flurry of headline‑making moments, starting with the Justice Department’s move to reinstate federal lethal injections and expand execution methods to include firing squads, a shift officials say is aimed at fast‑tracking capital punishment cases involving the most serious crimes, including the killings of law enforcement officers. The conversation then turns personal and heated during the Question of the Day, as the crew debates whether an ex‑wife should receive more child support after her former husband’s new spouse earns significantly more money—raising real‑world legal questions about household income, remarriage, and fairness, especially since courts generally do not count a new spouse’s income unless it directly alters financial obligations.   The mood shifts with a powerful in‑studio appearance by legendary actor and director Bill Duke, who reflects on legacy, Black creativity, trauma, and resilience, offering wisdom drawn from decades in film and culture, fresh off recent honors celebrating his impact. The episode closes on a tense note as the crew reacts to the shocking shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where a gunman breached security and was later charged with attempting to assassinate President Trump—an incident that left a Secret Service officer wounded and reignited serious concerns about security failures at high‑profile political events. From justice and money to culture and chaos, D.L. and the crew break it all down with sharp insight and unfiltered honesty.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
