    Soft Power, Loud Message

    Join in the conversation! Welcome back to another episode of the Hella Chisme Podcast. This week, we a celebrating a hundred years of Black history. It deserves more than a nod, it deserves a living practice. We open with a real moment of chaos (yes, a fully recorded episode lost to overzealous file cleaning), then land on a richer theme: the quiet, sustained work of becoming and belonging. From the rain-soaked coziness of a home studio to a culture-shaping Super Bowl performance that centered language, place, and love over hate, we track how pride moves from nostalgia to action.

    It’s Giving Hot Headlines & Heavy Truths

Fifteen days into 2026 and the vibes are loud, the body’s tired, the headlines are messy, and we’re choosing where to spend our fire.

    A Very Hella Chisme Christmas (Virtual Live) Ft. Rian-Louis, Mike and Stef

    Join in the conversation! Welcome to the audio experience of the Virtual Live of the Hella Chisme Podcast. The room felt equal parts cozy and electric the moment we went live holiday lights, clinking glasses, and that end-of-year hum where everything slows down and speeds up at once. We kicked things off with a quick Patreon invite, then dove into the real stuff: how creators navigate burnout, how to rest without losing momentum, and why the quiet wins matter more than the loud ones.

    World-Wide Chisme: The Streets Are Talking!

    Join in the conversation! Welcome back to another episode of the Hella Chisme Podcast.  This week, the GOTDAMN camera froze, the start time slipped, and I almost scrapped the whole plan. Instead, I rebuilt the setup, hit record on my phone, and let the mess be part of the story. From there, we go wide, holidays and family, therapy check-ins, a studio coming to life, and the courage it takes to show up without the filter.

    Artist we Love to Love

    Join in the conversation! Welcome back to another episode of the Hella Chisme Podcast.  In this weeks episode welcome back Logan. We discussed cracked manicures, a humid week, and suddenly we’re knee-deep in the albums that raised us. One memory leads to another and the soundtrack writes itself: Ashanti’s first two records blaring through late-night drives; Keisha Cole’s confessions that made us bold; the lush, lived-in worlds of Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and India Arie where interludes mattered and sequencing told a story. These aren’t just songs—they’re rooms we can still walk into. Enjoyed the ride? Follow, rate, and share the show with a friend who knows every word to Rain On Me. Then tell us the one album you’ll never delete from your library. LINK: https://linktr.ee/hellachismepodcast Support the show

    Is ‘Normal’ Sex Dead? Hookup Culture, Kinks, and Compatibility

    Join in the conversation! Welcome back to another episode of the Hella Chisme Podcast.  This week, we dig into the messy middle of modern intimacy, when hookup culture skips consent, porn scripts set the vibe, and everyone’s chasing a “10 out of 10” without talking about needs. The question this week is... Does “normal” sex even exist, or have we traded connection for spectacle?

    Talk to Me Nice: Communication & Connection with Dr. Marcus Shepard

    Join in the conversation! Welcome back to another episode of the Hella Chisme Podcast.  Long story short, my therapist said I’m Stressed, The VMAs said I’m old, and Dr. Marcus said “Communicate Better” Pop culture sets the stage, but the heart of this episode is connection you can feel. After a quick VMAs rundown, Mariah’s Vanguard moment, Doja’s 80s pop snap, and choreography that actually hits, we pivot into the messy, meaningful work of how people find each other, keep each other, and sometimes lose each other. Dr. Marcus Shepherd, a tenured professor of communication and host of Off the Data Provided, joins us to map the gap between casual contact and real closeness, and how to close it without losing yourself. LINK: https://linktr.ee/hellachismepodcast Connect with Dr. Marcus Shepard: "Meet Dr. Marcus C. Shepard a tenured professor in communication who studies communication, identity and diversity as they are heard within soul music, discussed by multiracial communities, and within interpersonal relationships."
