    From Hollywood controversies to heartfelt family dilemmas and a celebration of Black leadership, this episode of The D.L. Hughley Show delivers plenty to talk about. D.L. and the crew weigh in on actress Sarah Paulson's claim that sexism and ageism kept major movie roles from coming her way after her Emmy-winning performance as Marcia Clark in The People v. O.J. Simpson, igniting a conversation about opportunity, representation, and who gets rewarded in Hollywood. They also tackle a heated Question of the Day involving a father who refuses to let his transgender brother-in-law babysit his children after a decade-long absence from the family, prompting listeners to debate parental rights, trust, and whether the issue is really about gender identity or simply leaving children with someone they barely know.   The show also shines a spotlight on the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's milestone 50th anniversary. Founded in 1976, the organization is celebrating five decades of developing Black leaders, shaping public policy, and creating pathways to public service through scholarships, fellowships, internships, and its influential Annual Legislative Conference. The laughs continue as the crew counts down reasons women tend to outlive men, highlighting everything from getting more sleep and regular doctor visits to processing stress differently and maintaining stronger emotional support systems. As always, D.L. blends serious social commentary, listener opinions, and plenty of humor into a conversation that is equal parts thought-provoking and entertaining.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Female Athletes Upset with Sydney Sweeney; So Many Women Supporting Lindsay Clancy Odd to D.L. Hughley; D.L. Catches Up with Comedian Earthquake; The Militant Man Jamal Kingsley; and More

    Big debates, hard truths, and nonstop laughs collide as D.L. Hughley and the crew take on the stories everyone is talking about. They unpack the backlash to Sydney Sweeney’s provocative “Just Sports” campaign for Novig, where she is also a strategic partner and equity holder, as female athletes argue that the ad’s imagery reinforces the very stereotypes they have fought to overcome; the conversation also weighs Sweeney’s creative agency. Hughley then questions why so much public sympathy has centered on Lindsay Clancy instead of her three children after jurors deadlocked and a judge declared a mistrial in her murder case, while acknowledging the larger debate over accountability, maternal mental-health care, and the defense’s claim that she experienced postpartum psychosis.  Comedian Earthquake catches up with D.L. and jokes about discovering on Father’s Day that a child he had supported was not biologically his, while Jamal Kingsley—the Militant Man—satirizes hidden racial bias in familiar phrases before hosting a One Voyage Cruise lyric challenge. The episode also features the GED word game, Ian Edwards’ stand-up, Boosie’s claim that he paid $600,000 pursuing a presidential pardon that never came, and the crew’s signature mix of sharp commentary and unapologetic humor.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Fat Joe Defends Using the N-Word; Women with Money Do Not Need a Man; Jackson, MS Police Investigate Tasia Fortune Death as a Homicide; Five Best Things About Start of Football Season; and More

    From a heated hip-hop culture clash to the kickoff excitement every football fan feels, this episode of The D.L. Hughley Show brings sharp opinions, serious headlines, and plenty of laughs. D.L. and the crew debate Fat Joe’s defense of using the N-word, which he ties to his Puerto Rican and Cuban roots, his South Bronx upbringing, and his lifelong immersion in hip-hop; the renewed controversy has raised broader questions about Blackness, cultural proximity, and who has permission to reclaim the slur. The Question of the Day brings up a conversation about money and modern relationships as listeners consider whether successful women are encouraged to see financial independence as freedom while men are still expected to provide—an increasingly relevant debate as more marriages become financially egalitarian or include women as primary breadwinners.  Sybil Wilkes follows the troubling death of 29-year-old Tasia Fortune, whose body was found hanging from a tree behind a vacant home in Jackson, Mississippi. Police say the case is being investigated as a homicide while authorities await the medical examiner’s autopsy findings, as Fortune’s family and local leaders continue demanding answers. To close on a lighter note, Jasmine counts down the best parts of football’s return: fresh rookies and storylines, the opening-kickoff energy, tailgating and weekend atmosphere, fantasy football, and the endless optimism that lets every fan believe this could finally be their team’s year. That fantasy-football excitement is already in full swing, with late drafts, breakout picks, and rookie sleepers fueling the new season.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    HOUR 1 | Justice for Nolan Wells, Trump's War on the Press & The Window Seat Showdown

    D.L. kicks things off with a gut-wrenching look at the Nolan Wells case in Mississippi — a state with a dark history of racial injustice that somehow keeps getting worse. The Trump administration is making a bold power grab to control which reporters get White House access, and D.L. has plenty to say about the authoritarian playbook unfolding in real time. Meanwhile, Obamacare enrollment is being slashed for hundreds of thousands of people, and doctors in Texas are sounding the alarm about a mysterious health crisis hitting agricultural workers — right after the state eliminated mandatory water breaks. Plus, a viral plane etiquette debate divides the crew when a man refuses to give up his paid window seat for a passenger with a broken arm, and D.L. recounts the time he sat next to Halle Berry fresh off an argument with Eric Benét. And is Jon Ossoff the next Obama? Social media seems to think so. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Judge Says US Constitution Does Not Guarantee Clean Drinking Water; Can a Man Make Less Than His Woman; Talking All That Jazz with Singer MAJOR; Five Lies Told at Republican Midterm Convention; and More

    D.L. and the crew react to a divided Fifth Circuit ruling that upheld the dismissal of Jackson, Mississippi residents’ lawsuit over alleged lead contamination, finding that access to clean water and accurate public-health information are not deeply rooted constitutional rights—even as the court acknowledged the alleged harm as grievous and noted that residents may pursue other legal remedies. The conversation then turns to money and relationships after LisaRaye McCoy argues that a partner should be able to comfortably match her established lifestyle. This conversation prompted D.L. to ask if a relationship could work if a man made less money than his woman. Callers push back and share examples of couples thriving with unequal incomes through mutual respect, complementary strengths, and proportional bill-splitting.  Singer MAJOR. brings the romance and rhythm as he celebrates the 10th anniversary of his platinum-certified wedding staple “Why I Love You” and introduces “May This Moment Never End,” a warm new love anthem featuring the easygoing “La La Step.” Released through nowthatsMAJOR Music Group and UnitedMasters, the song was written with producer David “DLo” Outing. The episode closes with My Top 5 with Jasmine giving five lies that are being told at the first-ever Republican midterm convention in Dallas, challenging party messaging on the economy, unity, immigration, opponent-bashing, and the Iran war; outside reporting confirms the unusual two-day event was designed to energize voters amid low presidential approval and anxiety over consumer costs and the conflict overseas. From civil rights and relationship standards to new music and campaign spectacle, the crew delivers humor, debate, and plenty to think about.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
