    The Hot Seat Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 12

    This week, Justin B. Smith, AP, and Dupree are in the hot seat, and nothing is off limits. Presented by Jack’d, the crew kicks off Pride season with a conversation about dating apps, Pride weekends, friendship, relationships, self-sabotage, attraction, masculinity, and the lessons they’ve learned while navigating life as Black queer men. From building the perfect Black Pride starter pack to discussing what catches their attention on dating apps, the conversation quickly turns into something deeper. The hosts open up about friendship evaluations, showing up for the people you love, the realities of dating, and the ways ego, fear, and past experiences can get in the way of meaningful connections. They also tackle bigger conversations around the Black gay community, respectability politics, anti-femininity, dating preferences, activism, and the responsibility we have to show up for one another. Funny, vulnerable, messy, and surprisingly heartfelt, this episode reminds us that sometimes the hottest conversations happen when you’re willing to be honest. Special thanks to our sponsor, Jack’d.

    The Pride & Joy Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 11

    This week, Micah B, AP, and Dupree celebrate Pride Month with a conversation about joy, community, chosen family, and what Pride really means beyond the stereotypes. After a listener asks whether Pride has become too focused on sex, the crew gets into respectability politics, queer liberation, and why Pride has always been about much more than parties and hookups. They discuss the freedom that comes with living authentically, the importance of finding community, and the moments that make Pride feel meaningful beyond the nightlife. The conversation also explores chosen family, coming out, navigating relationships with parents and siblings, Black queer representation, and the responsibility we all have to protect our joy while uplifting one another. Funny, heartfelt, and affirming, this is a reminder that Pride is about more than celebration. It’s about community, resistance, visibility, and joy. ⸻ Executive Producer Micah Butler ⸻ Shop TRXDE Apparel https://trxdeapparel.com Use promo code BLACKGAYAGENDA for 10% off your order. ⸻ Watch our latest Another Conversation interview with Keiynan Lonsdale https://youtu.be/JicS6Au_-0M?si=71VNpNuPAS20d3TQ ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

    The Wildcard Agenda Pt. 3 | SZN 4 Episode 10

    This week, Micah B, AP, and Dupree close out the midseason with another Wildcard episode, where every topic is on the table and the conversation can go literally anywhere. The episode opens with conversations around internet outrage, fan loyalty, and whether audiences actually allow artists to grow. From Chris Brown and Tyler Perry to Teyana Taylor and award season discourse, the crew gets into why certain celebrities receive endless criticism while others are protected no matter what. From there, the conversation gets even messier. The crew debates petty behavior versus justified reactions, dating age gaps, sugar daddy stories, financial struggles as creatives, and the emotional reality of trying to grow while still carrying other people with you. They also get into the pressure Black creatives face online, why Black audiences sometimes struggle to give grace to Black artists, and the difference between accountability and performative hate. Funny, shady, reflective, chaotic, and unexpectedly deep, this is The Black Gay Agenda exactly the way the Pushers love it. ⸻ Executive Producer Micah Butler Producer Justin B.

    The Talk Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 9

    This week, Micah B, AP, and Dupree get into the conversations many Black queer people wish they had growing up. The episode opens with a Twitter Talk centered around the viral Vinny Watson and V12 Lounge controversy, and the internet debate around leadership, humiliation, respectability, and why Black queer people often receive harsher criticism online. From there, the conversation turns deeper. The crew unpacks the talks they never had around sex, religion, masculinity, fear, coming out, financial struggles, and what it looks like trying to figure yourself out while also undoing everything you were taught. They also get real about rejection, chasing dreams, emotional survival, and creating the kinds of safe spaces they wish existed when they were younger. Funny, vulnerable, messy, and honest, this is one of the realest conversations of the season. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

    The Be Honest Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 8

    This week, it’s Micah B, AP, and Dupree getting real… like actually real. We kick things off with The Quickie and set the tone early, because this episode is all about honesty, even when it’s uncomfortable. From there, the conversation opens up with a series of “be honest” questions that push everything to the surface. From dating habits to communication issues, the crew gets into the ways we show up in relationships… and the ways we avoid saying what really needs to be said. We get into: • Staying in situations out of comfort vs actually liking someone • Avoiding honesty to protect people’s feelings • Treating people like options while acting like they’re more • Knowing when you’re being inconsistent or emotionally unavailable • And recognizing when you are the problem The conversation also shifts into friendships, accountability, and the things we peep but don’t always say out loud. From riding the fence to calling out patterns, the question becomes… are you really being honest with the people in your life? Then things turn a little messier. We get into sex, attraction, and the double standards we all participate in… from overlooking red flags because someone looks good to doubling back when the sex is just that good. In the final stretch, the crew reflects on themselves. From communication habits to family relationships, finances, and personal growth, this episode forces one question… what are you avoiding being honest about in your own life? This one is funny, messy, and a little too real. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

    The Female Hip-Hop Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 7

    Let’s be real… every time y’all talk about the greatest female rapper, the conversation gets real selective. This week, Micah B is out, but Alex, AP, Dupree, and returning former cohost Justin B. Smith step in and hold it down. We kick things off with The Quickie asking one question… who is the greatest female rapper of all time? And from the start, the answers get real. From debates around Nicki Minaj vs. Missy Elliott to conversations about impact, versatility, and who really transcends the genre, the tone is set early. From there, the episode turns into a full breakdown of female hip hop, past, present, and what’s next. We get into: • The Mount Rushmore of female rap and who actually deserves a spot • The influence of legends like Lil’ Kim, MC Lyte, and Da Brat • How artists like Sexyy Red and GloRilla are shaping the current sound • The difference between personality, hits, and real artistry • Whether a short run is enough to be considered one of the greats The conversation also explores how the sound of female rap has evolved, who has truly challenged the genre, and what it takes to have longevity in an industry that has not always made space for women, especially Black women. In the Agenda Moving Forward, the focus shifts to the future. From rising artists like Monaleo to the growing visibility of new voices across cities, the question becomes clear… who is really next to take the torch? This episode is fun, opinionated, and a real conversation about the culture, the impact, and the evolution of the rap girls. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb Alex https://instagram.com/xandert82 AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist Justin B.

    The Silent Struggles Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 6

    This week, Micah B, Alex, AP, and Dupree get into a conversation that goes deeper than expected. We kick things off with a Quickie segment, Queerchella, where the hosts build their own dream queer music festival, choosing headliners and debating who really deserves top billing. What starts as a fun moment quickly turns into a bigger conversation about taste, impact, and who actually moves the culture. From there, the energy shifts into something heavier, the reality of silent struggles. From burnout and isolation to masking pain, self medicating, and navigating mental health in a world that does not always make space for it, the crew gets real about what it looks like to be okay on the outside but not on the inside. They unpack the difference between protecting your peace and isolating yourself, the pressure to stay strong for everyone else, and why so many people struggle to ask for help, especially in Black and queer communities. The conversation also touches on Mental health and masking Friendship, family, and safe spaces The impact of capitalism on emotional well being Grief, addiction, and personal healing Why vulnerability still feels unsafe for so many of us The hosts also share personal stories they have never fully opened up about, from depression and financial struggles to loss and rebuilding. This is not just a conversation, it is a reminder you are not the only one going through it. ⸻ Follow The Black Gay Agenda https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda Follow the Hosts Micah https://instagram.com/itsmicahb Alex https://instagram.com/xandert82 AP https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist

    The Situationship Agenda | SZN 4 Episode 5

    This week, it’s Micah B, Alex, and Dupree getting into it. We kick things off with The Quickie asking a real question… why do people hate the word “situationship” but stay in them anyway? And it quickly turns into a conversation about comfort, convenience, and knowing exactly what something is… but staying anyway. From there, we get into a conversation straight from the group chat about hookup culture, expectations, and whether things like effort, time, and even money should be considered when it comes to sex and dating. The perspectives? Very different. Then we get into the main topic: situationships. We break down: • What actually defines a situationship • The difference between dating, exclusivity, and a relationship • Why so many people end up in them without realizing it • And why people stay… even when they know it’s not going anywhere The conversation gets real as we talk about long-term situationships, emotional attachment vs. comfort, and the role fear plays in avoiding real commitment. We also get into: • Long distance relationships and why they often turn into situationships • The importance of communication, clarity, and defining what you’re doing • And how avoiding hard conversations keeps people stuck We close with The Agenda Moving Forward, focusing on check-ins, honesty, and being clear about what you want before you waste time in something that was never meant to grow. ⸻ 🎧 Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WtbOXlVNLwU ⸻ 💸 Support The Black Gay Agenda: CashApp: $BlackGayAgenda PayPal: paypal.me/blackgayagenda ⸻ 📩 Send your letters: contact@blackgayagenda.com ⸻ 📲 Follow us: Micah — https://instagram.com/itsmicahb Alex — https://instagram.com/xandert82 AP — https://www.instagram.com/whereisalexpin Dupree — https://www.instagram.com/dupreetheartist The Show — https://instagram.com/theblackgayagenda
