Intellectual But Ignant

In the latest episode of Intellectual but Ignant, Mako and Boogie might've taken the “ignant” part a little too far. Due to some sound issues, we had to pull back from our usual interview format—but trust, we still covered a lot. Mako, in a surprising twist, shifted his long-standing hate from Asians to Indian people (with what he claims are valid reasons). We also touched on the overlap between Men's Mental Health Month and Pride Month, shared our thoughts on the hype around the upcoming Lil Wayne album, and even threw out some NBA Finals predictions.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, we had a real special guest—Coach Darnell "Shep" Shepard coming straight out of 375 Holt Road—. He's the assistant coach for the reigning state champions at Wheeler High School, head of production at Honor Roll Clothing, a certified VertiMax trainer, and also lends a hand with the Decatur Blazers program. Mako and Shep dove deep into basketball talk, from Shep winning 4 out of the last 6 state championships to working under the legendary Coach Larry Thompson. We explored his early beginnings in New York, his move to Georgia, and how he found his calling as a coach. Coach Shep is what you'd call a true players' coach—always front and center for both his current and former players. He spoke about recognizing greatness early on, including his long-standing relationship with Utah Jazz starting point guard Isiah Collier, who he's known since middle school. We also touched on the flawed ranking systems for high school athletes and how that motivates both him and his players. Shep opened up about how raising a child with autism has taught him patience and life lessons that carry over into how he coaches and supports his team. We talked about his journey with Honor Roll Clothing, a brand that's been going strong for nearly 15 years, and how their slogan, “Excellence is a process,” applies to all areas of life. From legendary players he's seen firsthand, to the historic talent coming out of Wheeler, to his sharp ear for music, the conversation was full of gems. It could've been a little more “ignant,” but overall, it was a powerful discussion with someone allot would consider is already a Georgia legend.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, Mako and Boogie sit down with an urban Atlanta hoop legend—Coach Tay Uno. He's the head basketball coach at Snellville Middle, assistant boys' coach at South Gwinnett High, and one of the directors of the nationally ranked AAU program, the Decatur Blazers. Joining him were his son, Kei-Sean Roberts—widely regarded as the No. 1 point guard in the class of 2030—and Treu Taylor, one of the purest shooters in Georgia from the class of 2029.This episode dives into a bit of everything for true basketball heads. Coach Tay shares his story, growing up in Atlanta's 4th Ward Boulevard and hooping alongside his longtime friend, NBA vet Lou Williams. He opens up about the bond he has with his son Kei-Sean, how kids sometimes overlook their parents' legacy, and how that dynamic plays out on and off the court. We also discuss how Coach Tay and his best friend, Coach Just—Treu's father and a co-founder of the Decatur Blazers—built one of the top grassroots programs in the country from the ground up. Tay speaks on the strong village of support behind the Blazers and how overwhelming, yet appreciated, that love truly is. The conversation covers who Kei-Sean and Treu model their games after, their favorite NBA players, and what it's like for Kei-Sean to constantly play up in age groups—and how that pressure sharpens his skills. We talk about the grind today's youth hoopers are on, how taking a break can set you back, and Coach Tay even gives his take on the NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) movement. Most importantly, we shine a light on what Tay and Just are building—a special, game-changing movement that even Jet Academy has partnered with. The buzz is real: people are starting to recognize that the Decatur Blazers may be home to the nation's top talent and could become the No. 1 youth program for the classes of 2029 through 2036 and beyond. This episode is packed with real basketball insight, the inspiring journey of two best friends creating something impactful, the example of fathers pouring into their sons, life gems—and of course, a little bit of that classic intellectual but ignant touch.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, Mako sits down with entrepreneur, publicist, and A&R Tevin Ryles. Their conversation touches on a bit of everything—from Tevin's upbringing to his passion for collecting LEGO sets and sneakers, and the surprising financial value behind those collections. Tevin also opens up about his college journey at Valdosta State, his experience pledging, and how he got introduced to the clothing brand Oberon during that time. They dive into how he got started in public relations and some of the artists he's had the chance to work with. The episode also explores deeper topics like the stigma around the terms “baby daddy” and “baby mother,” and the importance of father figures—especially how you can often tell when a father is missing from someone's life. Tevin shares how becoming a father to his daughter changed his life for the better. They wrap up by discussing the cultural differences between Las Vegas, Atlanta, and Los Angeles—all places Tevin has lived—and reflect on the value of appreciating the journey just as much as the destination.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, Mako sits down with Jay Chulo, CEO and founder of Free Hugs. They cover a little bit of everything—from growing up on Hambrick Road to having most of his family in Chicago, and what it was like being the youngest of five siblings. Jay opens up about the music that shaped him, from Sade to Teena Marie, and how those soulful sounds influenced not only his life but the way he treats women. The conversation also touches on Kobe Bryant's impact on this generation and how embracing the Mamba Mentality helps you push through both adversity and success. They dive into how Mako and Jay first met through a mutual friend—Yung Nellz—who's no longer with us. Long live the legend. They reflect on how losing someone close can either break you or motivate you, depending on your mindset. The two also discuss what it means to be a girl dad and how Jay's daughter inspired the creation of Free Hugs. That love and inspiration continue to drive his work. On a broader scale, they even get into how tariffs with China could affect the clothing industry now and in the near future This episode is packed with real talk, life gems, and an authentic connection between two driven individuals.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, the crew is back with a special back-to-back drop! Now, not to throw anyone under the bus, but apparently our cameraman didn't convert the video properly so that's why the title is what it is—might be a little blurry. But hey, F it... we move. In this episode, Mako, Boogie, and Twin chop it up about all kinds of things—from being on the hunt to finding the plug on food stamps, to why they're done tipping for takeout orders because, let's be real, it's draining. Boogie confesses to running off on Uber Eats orders after not getting tipped properly and Mako explains why he doesn't tip uber eat orders all the time.. and thus, the domino effect continues. We also dig into the NIL deal surrounding the University of Tennessee's quarterback, and we break down the Karmelo Anthony case along with the broader division we're seeing in the country. Of course, it wouldn't be an episode without our conspiracy theory segment—you'll definitely want to tap in for that. We wrap things up with playoff predictions and a semi-breakdown of the games for Twin, who, let's just say, sometimes needs a little help keeping up. Not gonna lie—this one leans heavy on the ignant side, but there are still some real gems in there. So kick back, relax, and don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe.

In the latest episode of Intellectual But Ignant, Mako sits down for his first solo interview with artist and painter Jon Designz. They touched on a bit of everything—from Jon's favorite movie being Heat, to growing up in a religious household and how that shaped his relationship with his mother into adulthood. He shared how his grandmother played a pivotal role in his upbringing, instilling morals and principles that still guide him today. Jon opened up about getting married young, the lessons that came with that, and the difference between raising his son at a young age versus raising his daughter later in life. We also got into his roots—being born and raised in Decatur, Georgia—and his views on co-parenting, especially how as a man, you often have to take the high road. Jon talked about building his interior design empire, how it's opened doors for him globally, and the mindset that “there's enough work for everyone to eat.” He kept it real about the temptations that come with the job—especially with women—but emphasized the importance of discipline, because temptation doesn't pay the bills. We also dove into a powerful conversation about mental health, especially in the Black community, and how therapy is often overlooked or stigmatized among Black men.

ibi #season2 Season 2— We're back at it with the crew: Mako, Boogie, and Tashima. This episode is called “Knocking Off the Rust” for a reason—because that's exactly what's happening. We ran into a bunch of technical difficulties with the original recording, but that's nothing new. Even though it's the first episode of Season 2, it's actually Episode 32 overall. We talk about a little bit of everything, from catching up with the whole crew and what's been going on in their lives, to Mako explaining his latest departure. Turns out, what seemed like a snowball effect led to something real—true love. We also dive into the vision behind the Pink Panther trailer and how that whole idea came to be. Boogie gets personal too—defending his religious beliefs and sending a direct message to all the Ahks who've been calling and threatening him about his thobe. Plus, he shares a wild out-of-body experience during our new Conspiracy Theory segment. We wrap things up talking about how student loans hit everyone's credit scores this past February.
