    Full EP | Supreme Court strikes down majority black district in Louisiana; Do you believe White House Correspondent Dinner shooting real or not; Talking All that Jazz with mental health expert Chris Matthews; Five most ridiculous lawsuits; and More  

    D.L. kicks things off with a sharp breakdown of the Supreme Court’s 6–3 decision to strike down Louisiana’s second majority-Black congressional district, a ruling critics say significantly weakens the Voting Rights Act and could reshape congressional maps nationwide ahead of future elections. The Court’s decision has already thrown Louisiana’s elections into limbo and raised alarms among civil rights leaders who warn it may make it harder for minority voters to challenge racially diluted districts. The show also dives headfirst into the Question of the Day, asking listeners whether they believe the reported shooting connected to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner was real or staged. While law enforcement has confirmed a suspect and dismissed claims of a hoax, misinformation and conspiracy theories spread rapidly online, fueled by distrust in institutions and the surreal nature of the incident itself.   The conversation then pivots to something just as serious—but far more healing—as Jasmine Sanders is Talking All That Jazz with licensed therapist Chris Matthews about mental health, relationships, and the growing shift toward therapy in Black communities, emphasizing self-awareness, generational trauma, and finding the right therapeutic fit. To balance the heavy topics, the My Top 5 segment delivers laughs with a countdown of the most ridiculous lawsuits ever filed, including the infamous Red Bull case where consumers walked away with millions over the claim that the drink “gives you wings”—a real lawsuit that resulted in a $13 million settlement and remains a classic example of truth being stranger than fiction.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Critics notice glaring omissions in Michael Jackson biopic; Should man pay for date’s babysitter; Third suspect in murder of Jam Master Jay pleads guilty; Five reasons it COULD be a hoax; and More  

    Critics are calling out major omissions in Michael, the new Michael Jackson biopic, noting the absence of key figures like Diana Ross and The Wiz, as well as any meaningful treatment of the abuse allegations that shaped the final decades of Jackson’s life. Multiple outlets report those exclusions stem from legal constraints tied to past settlements, with the Jackson estate allegedly spending roughly $15 million on reshoots to comply, fueling debate over whether the film is a tribute or a sanitized narrative. Meanwhile, long‑delayed justice moved forward as Jay Bryant, the third suspect in the 2002 murder of Run‑DMC icon Jam Master Jay, pleaded guilty to helping gunmen access the studio where the DJ was killed — a case rooted in a drug deal gone wrong and unresolved for over two decades.   On a lighter but still fiery note, the crew debated during The Question of the Day — whether a man should pay for a date’s babysitter after a viral clip showed a woman demanding $250 up front. On My Top 5, D: and Jasmine gave the five top reasons why the White House Correspondent’s Dinner shooting could be hoax. Not that it is a hoax, but they are just saying.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
