    Episode 112 | "Context" (DJXP feat. EverythingOShauN & Trivelle Simpson)

    Episode 112 opens with DJXP taking accountability for the previous podcast cycle, explaining how personal circumstances prevented him from being the best version of himself on the last episode. The conversation quickly shifts to Kawhi Leonard as the crew breaks down why the Raptors trade remains in limbo and what recent reporting could mean for its future. From there, they react to Drake's Strong Women, Stronger Drinks event, where the ICEMAN reportedly gave away $2 million in cash prizes, cars, luxury bags, and more to entrepreneur-focused women across Toronto. Next, the hosts discuss Tory Lanez's new album outperforming Rick Ross's latest release before debating artist relevance today, with names like Nas and Big Sean entering the conversation. DJXP then introduces one of the week's biggest music stories after a Billboard-charting record by Fenix Flexin was revealed to have been created in an unexpected artificial way, leading to a discussion about where the music industry may be headed next. The conversation continues with Trinidad James, Desiigner, and the careers of artists who exploded overnight, before shifting into one of the episode's biggest discussions. Using the Summer House saga as a jumping-off point, the hosts debate a universal question: What's more important an apology or an explanation? DJXP argues he's grown beyond needing the "why" after betrayal or rejection, while Trivelle and EverythingOShauN believe understanding someone's reasons matters more than the apology itself. The episode wraps up with quick thoughts on The Odyssey and the latest Spider-Man film. You Might Wanna Sit Down 4 This.

    Episode 111| "Did You Get Stung By A Bee?" (Trivelle Simpson, EverythingOShauN & DJXP)

    After weeks of diving deep into Summer House and Drake, the podcast returns with Episode 111, covering a wide range of conversations across music, film, sports, relationships, and pop culture. The crew starts by discussing hidden symbolism in movies before debating whether they would be comfortable having a male stylist, male nanny, or other traditionally female household roles. They then react to JAY-Z's back-to-back concerts, Tory Lanez's new album while revisiting the verdict surrounding his case, Future's latest project, and the ongoing tension between Dame Dash and JAY-Z. The conversation shifts to Hollywood as the cast previews the upcoming The Odyssey film, explores why some audiences already have concerns, and looks at the remarkable number of A-list actors appearing in multiple major films this year. They also ask an unexpected question: How are soap operas still surviving in 2026? Later, Trivelle challenges the crew to choose their favorite era of hip-hop the 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, or 2020s using some of each generation's biggest artists as representatives, leading to one of the episode's biggest music debates. The episode closes with a relationship discussion after Trivelle poses a viral social question: If a man pays for a woman's shopping spree and dinner, is she expected to spend the rest of the night with him, or is she still free to make other plans? Finally, the hosts share their thoughts on the FIFA Women's World Cup just before the championship match, where Spain would ultimately lift the trophy. You Might Wanna Sit Down 4 This.

    Episode 110 | "Lacan's Gaze" (DJXP feat. Trivelle Simpson & EverythingOShauN)

    Episode 110 starts with the cast talking about movie scenes that were elevated by improvisation, including Training Day's iconic King Kong speech and Robin Williams' unforgettable Genie performance in Aladdin, where much of the animation was built around his ad-libbed dialogue. That leads into a fascinating story Tom Hanks recently shared about an entirely different version of Toy Story, where Pixar attempted to recreate the same creative freedom before ultimately scrapping the approach and reworking the film with Tim Allen. From there, the crew dives into a major story out of Toronto involving the legendary radio station Flow 98.7, which recently underwent a significant programming overhaul, including replacing its morning show with TV host Patricia J. The conversation expands into the controversy surrounding Patricia's husband after he referred to a woman from the podcast Relentless Diaries and her co-hosts as "YNs" while defending his wife's position at the station. Once the comment surfaced, accounts were deactivated and the discussion quickly shifted from whether Patricia fit Toronto's music culture to broader conversations surrounding race, culture, and representation. DJXP also provides insight into some of the business and financial realities behind major programming changes in radio. The conversation then shifts to the podcast industry as Trivelle explores whether Netflix-exclusive podcasts have benefited from moving behind the streaming platform's walls. The crew debates discoverability, exclusivity, audience habits, and whether podcast consumption on a television-focused platform can realistically compete with YouTube. Music takes center stage next as the guys discuss Drake songs from ICEMAN that are beginning to go viral alongside other contenders for Song of the Summer. Trivelle also reveals the first time he's ever been fooled by an AI artist after discovering what he believed was phenomenal music, leading to a discussion about the easiest ways to identify AI-generated artists beyond simply how they sound. The hosts then tackle one of the week's biggest music stories after Lizzo's Bitch album reportedly sold around 2,000 copies in its opening week. As artists and music professionals themselves, they explore the possible reasons behind the disappointing numbers despite Lizzo's enormous commercial success over the past decade. Floyd Mayweather's recent financial headlines are examined next after accusations that he wrote bad cheques. Rather than assuming he's simply "broke," the crew discusses more realistic explanations for the public business decisions involving the man long known as "Money" Mayweather. The episode then returns to Summer House as the cast reacts to the final piece of Season 10 content, The Aftermath. They break down Bravo's attempt to provide additional context surrounding Amanda, West, Ciara, Kyle, Meija, and Lindsay while revisiting the season's biggest friendship and relationship storylines. Trivelle calls out XP for having a soft spot for Amanda, which naturally leads into a broader discussion about giving advice to friends who repeatedly choose not to take it. To close out the episode, the crew reacts to a viral conversation from Devale and Khadeen Ellis' Dead Ass Podcast, which sparked widespread debate surrounding monogamy, sexual expectations within marriage, and how relationships evolve after having children. The hosts finish the episode by sharing their own perspectives on intimacy, long-term relationships, and the changing expectations that come with marriage and family life.

    Episode 109 | Cartier (DJXP feat. Trivelle Simpson & EverythingOShauN)

    Episode 109 kicks off with DJXP revealing to the other castmates that, after years of trial and error, experimentation, and exploring different content verticals, the podcast's YouTube channel has officially reached monetization by surpassing 4,000 watch hours within the last 365 days. While celebrating the milestone, the conversation turns reflective as they revisit the uncomfortable Episode 100 discussion where Trivelle and XP bumped heads over what it truly takes to build a successful podcast and the balance between passion, love, discipline, and dedication. Some concessions are made as they revisit that debate, while Trivelle introduces what he believes is the third ingredient necessary for success beyond skill and talent. From there, they pivot to Jay-Z responding to shots Drake sent his way on the critically acclaimed and commercially successful ICEMAN album, which has now spent its fourth week at #1. Jay-Z's response is compared to Drake's own reaction to Kendrick Lamar's "Like That" verse, with parallels drawn between the two chart-topping moments as Janice STFU continues its run atop the Billboard Hot 100. After discussing the recent downplaying of Jay-Z's career by stans and uninformed observers, the conversation naturally progresses to Taylor Swift joining Jay-Z as one of music's two richest figures. Taylor's billionaire status is particularly noteworthy because it is largely music-driven, a rarity in an industry where most artists accumulate wealth through a combination of music and outside investments. The group discusses the achievement and what it means for the business of music. Keeping things firmly in the pop culture lane, the guys then dive into their highly anticipated Summer House discussion, reacting to Parts 2 and 3 of the reunion for the house that Bravo built. Holding almost nothing back, they break down major moments involving Amanda, West, Ciara, and Kyle, discussing whether any real progress or accountability emerged from decisions that largely happened behind closed doors. Following the mega-conversation, XP introduces a series of fascinating relationship questions circulating on Reddit that tie directly and indirectly into many of the themes explored throughout the Summer House discussion, particularly around sex, infidelity, trust, and modern relationship expectations. Things take a more serious turn as the episode concludes with a discussion surrounding the recent verdict in the Karmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf case. Welcome to the show.

    Episode 108 | "Dunk" (DJXP feat. Trivelle Simpson & EverythingOShauN)

    Starting off the episode with Trivelle showing some adulation for the progress, the guys get right into revisiting the Drake conversation. As his one album (turned two-album surprise drop) landed him the top 3 spots on the Billboard 200, while a litany of songs populated the Hot 100...and with many arguing he may have officially passed MJ (on paper for sure), the group discusses the love, the hate, the additional artists who received their first charting positions, and their official quick reviews of the first/main album, ICEMAN, including where it sits in Drake’s discography. After wrapping that conversation, they discuss the AMA Awards and some of the winners, along with the glaring snub of an artist like Taylor Swift, who had 8 nominations, one of the biggest fanbases in the world with the “Swifties,” and one of the biggest albums of the year. Some people are definitely raising eyebrows. Staying in the Taylor vein, Canadian R&B/pop legend Shawn Desman accuses Taylor and another artist of biting one of the standout records from his career. After giving their opinions and discussing how situations like that should be handled, the guys move into the Kevin Hart apology tour following his roast, where many racial jokes were made at the expense of Black people. They discuss the larger issue surrounding comedy as a protected form of speech and the fallout that came with Kevin addressing it head-on instead of letting the story die down naturally. The story that has the guys lit in the streets is the Summer House reality series, with Trivelle dragging XP (and OShauN to some extent) deeper into the reunion episode surrounding one of the biggest stories in Bravo history involving the real-life relationship dynamics between Amanda Batula and West Wilson behind the cast’s back, including Amanda’s still-husband (technicality) and the recent fallout between West and Ciara Miller. While they touch on the reunion episode as a whole, the conversation really hinges on the major storyline where all the plot points come together for XP and OShauN, creating what XP calls some of the best TV he’s ever seen. After that, XP brings up an interesting relationship experiment that found a connection between long marriages and the extra adjectives husbands use when introducing their wives based on someone watching over 2,000 hours of couples interacting across 6 years. After that surprising fact-finding conundrum, Trivelle finally watches the Michael movie, opening up an entirely new direction for the discussion after revealing his issues with the film (he is a director, by the way). The pod concludes with the crew discussing their dream biopics and the best ones made so far. Welcome to the show.
