    COFFEE AND CONDOMS 78: I Met My Father at 16 | Kellz Spencer & Scooter Tell Their Story Reuniting

    Send us Fan Mail This episode of Coffee & Condoms became something much more personal than we originally planned. As we celebrate Kellz Spencer’s 33rd birthday, Scooter and his son open up about a family story that stretches back decades. Scooter shares how he and the mother of his child lost contact after he left for Korea on military deployment—and how father and son would ultimately meet 16 years later. For Kellz, that meeting changed more than just his relationship with his father. At 16 going on 17, he discovered that he also had a younger sister he never knew about, while simultaneously making the huge transition from growing up in Chicago to starting a new chapter in the Pacific Northwest. With Ms. Newman joining the conversation, the episode becomes a discussion about what “blood is thicker than water”really means when family relationships are complicated by time, distance, absence, and circumstances children may not fully understand until they're adults. And Kellz closes the episode with perhaps its most important message: Give your family grace. Especially for anyone who grew up with an absentee parent, Kellz talks about reaching a place where forgiveness becomes possible—even when you can't change what happened or recover the years that were lost. On his 33rd birthday, this isn't simply Kellz looking back at how he met his father. It's a father and son sitting beside each other 17 years later, telling the story together. ☕ Real stories. Real family. Real conversation. Happy 33rd Birthday, Kellz. 🎂

    COFFEE AND CONDOMS 71 : Drake Says London Rappers Are Better? Benzino Crashes Out Again & Fake Teeth

    Send us Fan Mail Another week, another round of headlines that have everybody talking. This week, the Coffee & Condoms crew dives into the latest in hip-hop, culture, viral moments, and current events. We break down Rod Wave's latest moves, Drake's bold claim that nobody can out-rap London's MCs, and Benzino's emotional appearance on Drink Champs where he went from calling out Eminem to saying he doesn't really have beef with him. We also react to Dame Dash dropping a diss record aimed at Jay-Z and Cam'ron, featuring a surprise collaboration that had the internet scratching its head.  Then we take a hilarious trip down memory lane and ask one of the funniest questions of the night: Remember when being a good dancer automatically meant people thought you had good game? The internet stays undefeated as we react to another viral confrontation involving a man in a dress challenging another man to "slide outside," and we discuss the Knicks fan who reportedly lost his job after dumping out and stealing a New York Knicks trash can. To close things out, we highlight some positive news with an incredible medical breakthrough as a Louisiana man is reportedly cured of sickle cell disease, opening the door for an important conversation about hope, science, and the future of healthcare. As always, expect plenty of laughs, hot takes, disagreements, and the kind of conversations that happen when friends get together over a good cup of coffee.
