    Swipe Right for 2026

    In this hilariously sharp episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, hosts Riker, Sham, The Rider, and the Black Libertarian dive into a no-holds-barred discussion on height privilege, dating app disparities, and modern masculinity. Riker questions why people give advice they wouldn’t take, while the Black Libertarian defends the everyday perks of being short—until the group calls out his Tinder advantage. From Korean sex tourism to petty relationship tests and viral pop culture moments, the hosts explore the absurdity of modern dating and the internet's favorite distractions. Sham throws hypotheticals into the fire, including whether you'd sue your wife over an ugly but biologically yours baby, while Riker and The Rider hold nothing back on betrayal, bar shifts on holidays, and Pornhub stats. The episode wraps with reflections on Black generational planning, 2026 advice, and a perfectly chaotic prediction for 2026.

  3. Black Literacy: Blame Slavery, The Bible, or Robert Greene (Choose One)

    12/29/2025

    Black Literacy: Blame Slavery, The Bible, or Robert Greene (Choose One)

    This is final installment of the intellectually charged and hilariously honest conversation with special guest Antonio Michael Downing and the Everyday Black Men podcast consisting of Riker, Reed, Sham, The Rider, White Collar Suge, and the Black Libertarian. Together they take a deep dive into Black literacy, cultural legacy, and uncomfortable truths. The crew tackles why many Black Americans struggle with reading, linking it to slavery, survival, parenting, and a lack of cultural infrastructure — all while debating if white authors dominate the bookshelf too heavily. Antonio Michael shares how the King James Bible and his grandma's poor eyesight jumpstarted his love for literature, leading to a lifelong relationship with reading and soft hands. The conversation detours through spicy commentary on Kamala Harris, Jamaican cultural contradictions, and literary hot takes on Lovecraft, Robert Greene, and Gogol. With humor, heat, and unexpected depth, the episode challenges listeners to consider how stories are passed down — or left behind in Black communities.

    You’re Not the Main Character in Black America

    In this passionate and humorous episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, the crew and their special guest Antonio Michael Downing pick up where they left off and continue diving into a multi-layered discussion on African origins, diaspora divisions, and the controversial idea that not all Black people in the Americas arrived via slavery. Antonio Michael and Reed trade jabs over historical ledgers, cultural disconnects, and why some Africans arrive in America uninformed and overly critical. Sham pushes back with some theories on pre-slavery African presence in the Americas, citing the Mali Empire, crop migration, and suppressed Indigenous Black histories. The group navigates the politics of Kamala Harris, cultural colorism, and Boondocks references while also jokingly accusing Whyte Collar Suge of being a “heathen” with no lead role in Black America. With a mix of facts, theories, and comedy, this episode questions who gets to claim Blackness and how far we should trust the so-called “official” narrative.create a visual for this episode based on the below main topics You’re Not the Main Character in Black America In this passionate and humorous episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, the crew and their special guest Antonio Michael Downing pick up where they left off and continue diving into a multi-layered discussion on African origins, diaspora divisions, and the controversial idea that not all Black people in the Americas arrived via slavery.

The conversation spirals into comedic but sincere takes on Drake as a universal Canadian Black man and how intuitive beliefs shape identity more than evidence. Antonio Michael shares his inspirations—from visions to family stories—and dives deep into the tensions between Black and Indigenous histories, the controversial rise of alternative origin theories, and the pain of erasure in American institutions. Reed and Antonio Michael trade perspectives on slavery narratives, reparations, and whether associating with Africa strengthens or divides Black people today. With sharp humor and layered honesty, this episode blends cultural commentary, personal reflection, and a side of bone spur jokes into one unforgettable conversation.

The conversation expands to include deeper commentary on artistic expectations, the weight of legacy, and parallels drawn to the MeToo movement’s early backlash.
