    FULL EP | Donor born children may be able to get parent information before eighteen; Would you marry someone who is unemployed; Actor Malik Yoba joins DL Hughley and crew; Elon Musk tweets about white solidarity; and MORE  

    From the UK, new proposals could allow donor-conceived children to access identifying information about their biological parents before turning eighteen, giving them earlier access to medical history or genetic heritage—though birth parents must agree to release it. Current UK law already requires post-2005 donors to register in an ID-release system once children reach adulthood but growing pressure from donor-sibling networks and families who use direct-to-consumer DNA tests are pushing for earlier transparency.   When it comes to relationships, DL and the crew tackled this Question of the Day: “Would you marry someone who is unemployed?” Citing a poll that 75% of women wouldn’t, the discussion explored nuances—some said they might if unemployment was temporary (like laid-off or a student pursuing further education) and emphasized the importance of shared expenses and personal goals.  Actor Malik Yoba joined to share his quadruple bypass journey and introduced his “Open Hearts Club,” a Brooklyn-based walking group that supports Black men in healing—not only physically but emotionally. Despite living a healthy lifestyle, Malik only discovered significant arterial blockages through detailed tests, underscoring the danger of hidden heart disease. Now he advocates for deeper screenings in the Black community, especially when standard cholesterol checks appear normal.   In a controversial moment, Elon Musk endorsed a post on X warning that “if White men become a minority, we will be slaughtered,” adding a “100” emoji to signal support for “white solidarity.” His post provoked widespread backlash, reigniting debates about race, political division, and Musk’s influence on public discourse.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DL will play some of the best callers from last week’s Questions of the Day. There has been more footage of the shooting death of Renee Nicole Good. Good was shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, MN.

    FULL EP | Corporation of Public Broadcasting officially shutting down; Are you tipping at self-service establishments; US Senate votes to block further military action in Venezuela; and MORE

    Big changes and big questions dominated this episode of The D.L. Hughley Show. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the backbone of NPR, PBS, and countless local stations, has officially shut down after Congress slashed over $1 billion in funding. This move leaves public media scrambling for survival through donations and corporate support, marking the end of an era for educational programming and trusted news sources. Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate passed a bipartisan resolution to block further military action in Venezuela without congressional approval, signaling a push to rein in executive power after recent controversial operations.  On a lighter note, for the Question of the Day, the team tackled the hot-button question of tipping at self-service establishments. With automation replacing traditional service, listeners debated whether tipping is still necessary when you’re doing most of the work yourself. Jasmine Sanders rounded out the show with five surprising facts, from the 40,000 toilet-related injuries reported annually to the shocking seven percent of Americans who believe chocolate milk comes from brown cows. It was a mix of serious headlines and fun trivia—classic D.L. Hughley style.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    FULL EP | Minneapolis Hilton hotel denying ICE agents now dropped by Hilton; Did Nicki Minaj hurt her career for supporting Trump; Award winning singer KEM joins DLHS crew; and MORE

    Feeling energized and ready for the new year? Here’s some on the biggest conversations from the D.L. Hughley Show. The Minneapolis Hampton Inn by Hilton sparked controversy when an independently owned location refused bookings made by ICE and DHS agents—citing a deliberate policy to deny their stay. Hilton swiftly distanced itself, launched an investigation, and removed the property from its system as protests and federal backlash mounted. The franchise owner, Everpeak Hospitality, also apologized and promised to accommodate affected guests.   Nicki Minaj caused a stir after publicly backing Trump at a Turning Point USA event alongside Erika Kirk, prompting social media outrage and a Change.org petition urging her deportation (over 53K signatures to date). Many are questioning whether this political pivot will cost her core Barb fanbase, with comparisons drawn to other celebrities like Kanye whose careers were derailed by similar moves. Meanwhile, Grammy-nominated R&B powerhouse KEM—recently celebrating over two decades in the game—joined DLHS to share his journey of independence from Motown, founding Kemistry Records, and his continued mission to keep soulful R&B alive and thriving. Ending on a wellness note, experts are urging listeners to ditch old unhealthy habits for 2026: prioritize sleep, curb overspending, avoid skipping breakfast, boost physical activity, and unplug from your phone—small adjustments that yield big health payoffs.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    FULL EP | Donnie McClurkin accused of sexual assault and misconduct; Should men know how to change a tire; F- You DL Hughley; Five New Years resolutions you will never keep; and MORE

    We’re kicking off 2026 with a packed show! First, gospel legend Donnie McClurkin faces shocking allegations of sexual assault and misconduct in a lawsuit that claims years of abuse dating back to 2003. We break down what’s being alleged and what McClurkin’s team is saying in response.  Then, the Question of the Day sparks debate: Should men know how to change a tire? Is this an outdated expectation or a timeless standard? Listeners weigh in on whether practical skills still define masculinity in an era of electric cars, AAA, and TaskRabbit.  Finally, Jasmine Sanders delivers “My Top 5” New Year’s Resolutions You’ll Never Keep—from quitting social media to exercising more. Why do most of us fail by February? We’ve got the answers (and a few laughs).  Tune in for real talk, trending topics, and the humor you love from the D.L. Hughley Show Podcast!  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    FULL EP | Americans moving to Florida and the Carolinas for cost of living; Should a man pay for their woman’s hair and nails; Professor and author Michael Eric Dyson joins DL Hughley crew; Buddhist Monks walking 2300 miles for peace; and MORE

    From cost-of-living caravans to a 2,300‑mile peace trek—this episode rides the pulse of everyday choices, big ideas, and unexpected unity. Americans continue drifting toward the Southeast—think Myrtle Beach/Wilmington, Raleigh, and Greenville–Spartanburg—drawn by lower costs, warmer weather, and small‑city ease; recent moving data shows the Carolinas surging while Florida’s pandemic‑era boom cools, with some metros now appearing on “move‑out” lists as housing and insurance costs bite. For the Question of the Day, the crew debates whether a man should pick up the tab for his partner’s hair and nails—listeners weigh in that it’s not an obligation but can be a loving gesture, especially if you’re critiquing a look you want improved; typical nail services run about $20–$50 while premium styles and extensions can climb into the hundreds, even more for high‑end hair installs, explaining why the question sparks such heated talk.   Professor Michael Eric Dyson drops by to discuss Long Time Coming, his epistolary reckoning with race that writes to martyrs like Breonna Taylor and George Floyd—underscoring how systemic forces demand more than episodic fixes, a point echoed in the show’s exchange. And outside the studio, compassion is literally on the march: a band of Buddhist monks (and “Aloka the Peace Dog”) are walking roughly 2,300 miles from Fort Worth to Washington, D.C., drawing crowds across Georgia and heading into South Carolina—an old‑school pilgrimage reminding folks that peace begins within, one step at a time.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    FULL EP | Man Shoots Cleaning for Coming to Wrong House; Were the Democrats Lucky or Was This the Plan All Along; The Militant Man Jamal Kingsley; and MORE  

    Chaos, politics, and hard truths drive today’s episode as the DLHS crew dives into America’s escalating dysfunction with a sharp mix of humor and razor-edged commentary. The show opens with the shocking story of a man who shot a cleaning woman who mistakenly arrived at the wrong home. This case is now making national headlines as he faces manslaughter charges. The team uses the tragedy to highlight how “guns + fear + bad judgment” continues to produce senseless violence across the country.   The Question of the Day asks whether Democrats were strategically smart or just lucky in the overwhelming 427–1 House vote and unanimous Senate vote to release the Epstein files; which is a stunning bipartisan shift that even DL admits never happens in American politics. Callers weigh in on whether this was tactical chess or accidental timing driven by leaked emails, victim pressure, and fear of looking like defenders of predators. DL argues Democrats must have done something right to force such rare consensus. The episode also features The Militant Man, Jamal Kingsley, breaking down racism in everyday situations, and Jasmine’s Top 5 “Interesting Facts About Thanksgiving”, adding comedic relief. The show closes with reflections on political hypocrisy, immigration crackdowns, and the irony of voters harmed by the very policies they supported.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
