    Ep. #394: Iguanas For Dinner?

    Ed Lover kicks off the episode with unfiltered sports takes, from questioning James Harden’s championship potential to breaking down Super Bowl energy (even if not everyone in the house knows who’s playing). The conversation shifts into why award shows like the Grammys no longer move the culture, plus real talk about Black artists and public figures aligning with Trump — and what that says about identity, money, and hip-hop today. Ed and Mrs. Fruit also cover wild winter weather, frozen iguanas falling from trees (seriously), and take a nostalgic trip down memory lane to their first vacation together. Plus, Ed teases a major announcement about the future of the podcast that you won’t want to miss. Ed Lover Mrs. Fruit Krista "Super Producer" Hayes Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Ep. #393: Say It Out Loud!!!

    Ed Lover kicks things off questioning the media frenzy surrounding Max B, calling out how gangster stories are often glamorized while the real harm — and real victims — get glossed over. From crime culture and power to why certain communities wear criminality like a badge of honor, the conversation gets honest fast. Things heat up as Ed doesn’t hold back on his deep disappointment in Nicki Minaj, questioning her recent moves, motives, and whether branding has completely overshadowed artistry in today’s music industry. From “branding culture” gone wild to artists losing the plot, Ed and Mrs. Fruit debate what it really means to be an artist versus a brand. The crew also dives into AI fatigue, podcast culture, oversaturation vs. underpreparedness, and whether nostalgia is propping up hip-hop and R&B right now. Along the way, Ed pays respect to real podcast pioneers and experts who set the standard. Unfiltered, funny, thought-provoking — and classic C’Mon Son! energy.

    Ep. #391: From Christmas Classics to Closing Chapters, We're Embracing The Change

    The crew recaps Christmas the only way they know how — with family, traditions, laughter, and real conversation. From holiday dinners and meaningful gifts to the Black Christmas classics that never get old (The Temptations, Run-DMC, The Jackson 5), this episode is a full-on stroll down memory lane. They reminisce about childhood toys, growing up Black, prom stories, and the moments that shaped them along the way. Mrs. Fruit reflects on time moving fast and learning to appreciate every day, while Ed keeps it real about getting older, gratitude for family, and embracing new chapters — including closing one chapter in radio and stepping boldly into what’s next. It’s nostalgic, honest, funny, and grounded — a reminder that aging is a blessing, Black don’t crack, and there’s room for everybody in podcasting and beyond.
