FULL SHOW | Threats Force Many HBCUs to Lockdown; Rickey Smiley and the Morning Crew Talk Sex and Intimacy; President Trump Says Charlie Kirk Suspect in Custody; and MORE

On today’s episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast, the crew tackled breaking news, Hollywood rumors, real-talk about intimacy, and major updates in the Charlie Kirk shooting case. The RSMS crew digs into a string of terroristic threats that forced lockdowns and class cancellations at multiple historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) across the U.S. Institutions such as Alabama State, Hampton, Virginia State, Southern, Bethune-Cookman, Spelman, Clark Atlanta, and Morehouse were affected. Although no credible threat has been confirmed, the timing—shortly after Charlie Kirk’s shooting—has many students and administrators on edge, with heightened security in place. Rickey and the crew sat down with a sex and intimacy therapist, who broke down how open communication, honesty, and vulnerability can deepen relationships and help couples keep the spark alive. And during the last hour, the crew revealed that a suspect in the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk is now in custody. The suspect has been identified as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson of Utah, arrested after a tip from someone close to him, according to Utah law enforcement. Authorities say Robinson acted alone, and there are indications in messages and bullet engravings that the shooting was politically motivated.
