    Full EP | Women are furious with Stephen A. Smith; Is Twelve too young for makeup; Gov. Tim Walz signed Free School Meals into law; Five ways to raise money for Chris Brown Tickets; and More

    The show kicks off with a fiery breakdown of why women are dragging Stephen A. Smith online after his viral comments saying his partner should both work and have a hot meal waiting for him. The crew doesn’t just crack jokes—they unpack why many listeners see his remarks as outdated, especially at a moment when conversations around gender roles, labor, and respect are front and center across social media and sports media commentary. The debate then shifts to parenting and culture with the Question of the Day: is twelve years old too young for makeup? Drawing from real caller reactions and broader research, the discussion highlights how social media, beauty influencers, and online pressure are pushing kids to grow up faster, while parents struggle to balance self-expression with safety and self-esteem.   On a more uplifting note, the Human Being of the Week honors Gov. Tim Walz, who signed universal free breakfast and lunch for K–12 students into law in Minnesota—a move praised nationwide for tackling childhood hunger without income barriers and putting kids first. The episode wraps with laughs and side-eyes during Jasmine Sanders’ “Top 5” featuring creative (and borderline ridiculous) ways fans are raising money for Chris Brown tickets, a reflection of just how intense demand is for his massive stadium tour with prices soaring in many cities.    Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Supreme Court restores mail order access to abortion pill; Should a husband pay his wife back for bills; Talking All That Jazz with Joy Taylor; New Yorkers call for boycott of Met Gala due to Jeff Bezos; and More  

    From the Supreme Court to the kitchen table, today’s D.L. Hughley Show covered how power, money, and marriage are stirring up some major conversations. The show dug into the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to temporarily restore mail‑order access to the abortion pill mifepristone, a drug used in more than half of abortions nationwide. By blocking a lower‑court ruling out of Louisiana, the Court once again allows doctors in states that protect abortion access to prescribe the medication via telehealth and mail, a move reproductive‑rights advocates say is critical as medication abortions have become the most common method since Roe was overturned. The conversation changed to the Question of the Day: should a husband repay his wife after she covered household bills while he was unemployed? Callers overwhelmingly said no. Arguing marriage is a partnership—not a loan agreement—sparking a passionate discussion about money, gender roles, and what “for better or worse” really means.  In lighter but still heated debate, Jasmine Sanders is Talking All that Jazz as she welcomed Joy Taylor to the Urban One family. Taylor talked about her daily sports micro-pod, The Daily Play, which delivers fast, facts‑first breakdowns of major sports and culture stories. The show also mixed culture, controversy, and relationships—starting with New York’s backlash against the Met Gala over billionaire involvement. Protesters across the city called for a boycott after Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos were named honorary chairs, with activists accusing Amazon of labor abuses and excessive influence over cultural institutions, including demonstrations and viral protest visuals near the event.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Teens engaging in Scientology speed running; My teenage son cannot date a girl with a baby; Supreme Court struck down Louisiana congressional map; Five signs you have too much stress; and More  

    Social media stunts, Supreme Court rulings, and real‑life parenting dilemmas collide in a jam‑packed episode that proves the world stays messy whether it’s online or offline. The crew weighs in on a viral trend where teens have been “speed‑running” through Church of Scientology buildings in Los Angeles for TikTok clout—a stunt that’s drawn police attention and prompted the church to remove door handles and accuse participants of trespassing and potential hate crimes. From there, the show turns to serious news, breaking down how the Supreme Court struck down Louisiana’s congressional map, a 6–3 ruling that weakens key protections of the Voting Rights Act and could significantly reduce Black voter representation not just in Louisiana, but across the country.   On the personal side, the Question of the Day sparks heated debate after a mother says her 14‑year‑old son is not allowed to date a girl who already has a baby, with callers split between seeing it as responsible parenting or unfair judgment. The episode also taps into health and lifestyle realities, highlighting five warning signs your body may be under too much stress—ranging from teeth grinding and digestive issues to constant hunger and randomly falling asleep—symptoms medical experts consistently link to chronic stress.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    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 | DOJ reinstating lethal injections and adding firing squad; Should ex-wife get more money from the new wife; Actor and director Bill Duke joins DLHS crew; Shooting at White House Correspondent’s Dinner alarms DLHS crew; and More

    This episode of The DL Hughley Show Podcast dives headfirst into a flurry of headline‑making moments, starting with the Justice Department’s move to reinstate federal lethal injections and expand execution methods to include firing squads, a shift officials say is aimed at fast‑tracking capital punishment cases involving the most serious crimes, including the killings of law enforcement officers. The conversation then turns personal and heated during the Question of the Day, as the crew debates whether an ex‑wife should receive more child support after her former husband’s new spouse earns significantly more money—raising real‑world legal questions about household income, remarriage, and fairness, especially since courts generally do not count a new spouse’s income unless it directly alters financial obligations.   The mood shifts with a powerful in‑studio appearance by legendary actor and director Bill Duke, who reflects on legacy, Black creativity, trauma, and resilience, offering wisdom drawn from decades in film and culture, fresh off recent honors celebrating his impact. The episode closes on a tense note as the crew reacts to the shocking shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where a gunman breached security and was later charged with attempting to assassinate President Trump—an incident that left a Secret Service officer wounded and reignited serious concerns about security failures at high‑profile political events. From justice and money to culture and chaos, D.L. and the crew break it all down with sharp insight and unfiltered honesty.  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.

    Full EP | “Vogue” tries to rename the Afro to a Cloud Bob; More comfortable with teen in a self-driving car or Uber driver; Peace talks remain at a standstill in Iran; Five ways vodka comes in handy at home; and More

    The DLHS crew tackled the internet backlash after Tracee Ellis Ross’s afro was labeled a “cloud bob” in a Vogue hair feature—sparking accusations of cultural erasure so loud the magazine quietly removed the term after widespread pushback. That debate rolled straight into the Question of the Day: would you rather see your teen ride alone in a self‑driving car or with an Uber driver? With companies like Waymo rolling out teen accounts and safety data suggesting autonomous vehicles may be involved in fewer serious crashes than human drivers, listeners weighed convenience and tech safeguards against very real fears about putting kids in AI-run cars.   The show also zoomed out to the world stage, where peace talks between the U.S. and Iran remain stuck in limbo despite an extended ceasefire, largely due to ongoing naval blockades and leadership divisions inside Tehran that have stalled meaningful negotiations. To lighten things up, Jasmine Sanders closed out with her Top 5, breaking down the surprisingly practical ways vodka can be used around the house—from eliminating lingering odors to keeping flowers fresh longer, thanks to its antibacterial properties and ability to slow plant decay—proof that even your liquor cabinet might be working overtime.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | “The Blind Side” actor wakes out of coma to find wife married; Stepdad not invited to graduation for absent dad; Talking All That Jazz with Dante Bowe; Five signs you are the problem; and More

    This episode of The D.L. Hughley Show Podcast dives into jaw‑dropping headlines and real‑life dilemmas, starting with actor Quinton Aaron of The Blind Side, who revealed he woke up from a coma following a spinal stroke to learn his wife was still legally married to someone else — a discovery that came out when she was blocked from making medical decisions on his behalf. The show also tackles the heated “Question of the Day” involving a stepdad who raised his stepdaughter for nearly two decades but was excluded from her graduation so her absent biological father could attend, prompting him to pull his financial support and igniting a passionate debate about entitlement, loyalty, and consequences.  The conversation shifts gears with Talking All That Jazz featuring Grammy Award‑winning artist Dante Bowe, who opens up about authenticity, faith, artistry, and why he refuses to be boxed into labels as he blends gospel, R&B, and inspirational music. Wrapping things up, the crew breaks down five signs you might be the problem in your relationship, echoing widely cited psychological research that shows behaviors like constant criticism, emotional invalidation, yelling during conflict, and refusing accountability are major red flags for relationship breakdowns. As always, D.L. and the crew balance sharp humor with uncomfortable truths, making this episode equal parts entertaining, thought‑provoking, and very real.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Women’s usage of cannabis has grown in recent years; Is work from home culture a career killer for women; VP JD Vance traveling to Pakistan for peace talks; Five reasons to legalize marijuana; and More

    On the show, the crew dives into a growing trend spotlighted in the Jazzy Report: more women are turning to cannabis, often as an alternative to alcohol, with national data showing women—especially younger women—using marijuana at higher rates than ever before, driven by stress, sleep issues, and access to legal edibles and infused products. That conversation flows right into the Question of the Day, sparked by comments from SKIMS executive Emma Grede, who ignited backlash after saying work‑from‑home culture hurts women’s career advancement. While she argued that proximity and visibility still matter for promotions, critics point to research on productivity and “proximity bias,” noting that remote workers—especially women of color—often perform well but are still overlooked due to outdated corporate norms.   Later, Sybil Wilkes breaks down escalating international tension as Vice President JD Vance heads toward Pakistan amid high‑stakes U.S.–Iran peace talks brokered by Pakistani leaders, with reports suggesting negotiations remain fragile and heavily influenced by regional security concerns and ceasefire deadlines. The episode wraps with Jasmine Sanders’ Top 5, laying out arguments for marijuana legalization—from reducing racial disparities in arrests to lowering enforcement costs and aligning policy with overwhelming public support, as polling shows most Americans now favor legal cannabis in some form.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | FBI director Kash Patel suing “The Atlantic” for alcoholism claims; Do you allow other people to spank your children; Actor and comedian Marlon Wayans joins DLHS crew; Shreveport man un-alives 8 children and 2 women; and More

    From legal drama at the highest levels of law enforcement to tough conversations about family, discipline, and unimaginable tragedy, this episode of The D.L. Hughley Show pulls no punches. The crew opens with a sharp breakdown of Kash Patel, the current FBI Director, suing The Atlantic for $250 million over a report alleging alcohol abuse and erratic behavior—claims Patel strongly denies while the outlet stands by its reporting, setting up a high-stakes legal fight that reignites debate about media accountability and public officials. The show then pivots to the Question of the Day, sparked by a real-life family dispute: should grandparents or other relatives be allowed to spank your children? The conversation reflects a growing generational divide, as recent studies show many parents rejecting corporal punishment while older generations defend it as discipline, not abuse.   The mood shifts as actor and comedian Marlon Wayans joins DL and the crew for a wide-ranging, heartfelt conversation about carving out his own voice in comedy, carrying the Wayans legacy, and his return to the big screen with Scary Movie 6, which reunites him with his brothers and is set for release later this year. The episode closes on a devastating note with coverage of the Shreveport, Louisiana mass shooting, where a father killed eight children—including seven of his own—in what authorities have described as a domestic violence tragedy that has shaken the community and the nation. As always, DL balances humor, honesty, and hard truth while confronting the stories everyone is talking about—but few know how to process.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Full EP | Live Nation found to be a monopoly; Does a racial preference for your child make you racist; The Militant Man Jamal Kingsley; Five medical myths we believe; and More

    The crew breaks down the major antitrust verdict that found Live Nation and Ticketmaster operated as an illegal monopoly, a decision that could reshape the live‑music industry after states proved fans were overcharged and competitors were squeezed out—a ruling that follows years of complaints from artists and consumers alike. The conversation then turns inward with the Question of the Day: Does having a racial preference for who your child dates make you racist? Drawing from listener calls and real‑world examples, the discussion reflects what research shows—that people often default to familiarity when imagining relationships, even as interracial dating continues to rise and challenge long‑held assumptions about race, identity, and bias.   The episode also features The Militant Man Jamal Kingsley, who delivers sharp, satirical commentary exposing how racism hides in everyday symbolism, language, and “normal” traditions, urging listeners to question what they’ve been taught to overlook. Jasmine Sanders wraps things up with a reality check on five medical myths we still believe, debunking ideas like eating at night automatically causing weight gain, cold weather making you sick, turkey being responsible for the “itis,” reading in low light ruining your eyes, and the claim that we only use 10% of our brains—myths modern medical research has repeatedly proven wrong.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
