This podcast is just my opinions of what's going on in the United States with a nuanced point of view. Some people call me problematic but I'm not THAT problematic

    NTP Episode 58 (Feat. LuxxNRG)

    This week on NTP, me and my brother talked about a few moments where decent policing somehow spun into outrage—like the Chuck E. Cheese arrest in Florida (why was the mouse in cuffs?) and the viral traffic stop in Jacksonville. We also played a lil round of This or That and things got a little heated, but we kept it cute the whole time. Tap in for laughs, real convo, and sibling chaos.

    NTP Episode 57 (Feat. Brent Burton Sr.)

    This week on NTP, I’m joined by a very special guest—my dad 🥰—for a thoughtful and timely conversation about the new “Big Beautiful Bill” legislation. We break down what’s actually in the bill, why it matters, and how it could impact everyday Americans. With his perspective and lived experience, my dad shares why this moment feels significant, what gives him hope, and the importance of staying informed no matter where you stand politically. We wrap it up with wisdom, laughs, and a little love between two generations. You don’t want to miss this one.

    NTP Episode 56 (feat. SFC Baker)

    This week on NTP, I sit down with my friend and fellow soldier, a Sergeant First Class in the U.S. Army, for a real conversation between two comrades. We talk about what’s been going on with the recent U.S. airstrikes on Iran, how it feels from inside the ranks, and what civilians often miss when tensions rise. We also reflect on how Army life has changed since I got out in 2018, the realities of leadership, and the mental toll of service. Of course, we keep it light too—with a fun round of This or That: Army Edition and some solid takeaways on purpose, discipline, and staying grounded through it all.

    NTP Episode 55 (Stephon & MK Smith)

    This week on NTP, I’m joined by writer/director Stephon Wright and brilliant Actress MK Smith for a panel-style conversation about the film Sinners—and we couldn’t stop raving about it. From the storytelling to the performances, we agreed it’s a beautifully executed film that deserves more love. We talked about what made it so impactful, shared our favorite moments, played a quick surprise game, and wrapped things up with some thoughtful movie recommendations from our guest. If you’re into film, creativity, and good vibes, this one’s for you. 🎬✨ Socials: https://www.instagram.com/ntppodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/mksmith360/ https://www.instagram.com/stephonwright_/ Short Film Donation: https://seedandspark.com/fund/la-mala-film#story?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaedBP9GjjOkAfKR8bTYeAd3viTivNlg6DyfmW1-g8g_1q1UKPOsTlHl53i6Ew_aem_ohPKa5GkoAoxQ6-SRDWx1A https://www.instagram.com/lamalafilm/ Suggested Movies: The Tenant— Amazon Prime Video Along Came A Spider— Amazon Prime Video The Sppok Who Sat By the Door— YouTube Madagascar 2 Escape From Africa— Max Over The hedge— Prime Video Sponsored by: Black Gator Productions: https://www.blackgatorproduction.com https://www.instagram.com/blackgatorproduction/ Theme Song: Performed by: https://www.instagram.com/whocamille/ Arranged by: https://www.instagram.com/escaneli/

    NTP Episode 54 (Feat. Lorenzo)

    This week, I’m joined by my fave returning guest and friend for a kiki all about Season 17 of RuPaul’s Drag Race! We get into the queens who are slaying, the ones who might be skating by, and the moments that had us screaming at the TV. We also play a quick round of “This or That: Drag Race Edition” and give our unfiltered takes on everything from lip sync battles to runway looks. If you're watching this season, you already know—we had opinions. Tap in for laughs, shade, and some good ol’ drag delusion. 💅🏽✨ Socials: https://www.instagram.com/ntppodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/iamoriginalcontent/ https://www.instagram.com/officialmmmanagement/ Sponsored by: Black Gator Productions: https://www.blackgatorproduction.com https://www.instagram.com/blackgatorproduction/ Theme Song: Performed by: https://www.instagram.com/whocamille/ Arranged by: https://www.instagram.com/escaneli/

    NTP Episode 53 (Roy Carey-Ware)

    This week, I’m joined by fashion designer and cofounder of the luxury brand Jeofroi (pronounced Jef-Wah), the one and only Roy! We talked about trusting the process, staying grounded as a creative, and letting your journey shape your craft. The episode went a little longer than usual, but it’s packed with insight, laughs, and real talk. We kept a little bit of our “Style It or Skip It” game in for fun, and Roy closed us out with some powerful words to live by. You’re gonna want to sit with this one—it’s a good one.

    NTP Episode 52 (Feat. Destiny)

    This week, I’m joined by my best friend for a hilarious and unfiltered deep dive into the latest pop culture drama straight from The Shade Room! We’re talking about the tension at The Breakfast Club, the ongoing conversation around celebrity skin bleaching, Beyoncé’s upcoming Cowboy Carter tour, and all the drama surrounding Juju’s injury, Jayden Daniels, and his mama. Grab your snacks—this episode is full of hot takes, side-eyes, and a whole lotta “girl, what?!” moments.

    This week, we’re sitting down with an incredible guest—a poet, actress, activist, and art educator—for a fun and insightful conversation on the power of Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and art education, especially in today’s classrooms. We also take a nostalgic dive into Black sitcom theme songs and put her to the test with a Black Pop Culture Pop Quiz covering everything from 90s classics to today’s icons.
