The Late Bloomer Podcast With Spooks McGhie And Friends

My guest decided to post a random meme and it shook up the internet and subsequently got someone fired(Estee Lauder Executive John Dempsey). Also how did this same meme get DTP St. Louis rapper Chingy #1 trending on twitter. We talk about that and more as well as the three Rs that seem to be an inevitable conversation piece... Rhythm... Race and Religion.

Today we decided to go against the original plan in lieu of recent events.

Trying to keep up with my weekly releases.. this is week two of ridding myself of the "upload when i upload" format. Sundays seems to be the most viable time to record.

We also spoke on Supporting black business, art, and life. I must have been feeling some type of way that day because I wasn't my usual silly self and I brought the mood down talking about my woes.. . I really wish you guys could have heard the episode we did that got destroyed.... It flowed and ebbed and was full of good energy, but this episode was.. dark to say the least... however it was enlightening and you will definitely get something out of it if you are dealing with coping with your demons and being your best self mentally. We tried once again to touch on the idea of magic and manifestation, but I have yet to really flesh out these ideas so I will try and do a bit more research on this and we can do a full episode about this. Anyway, here I am again talking negative. Enjoy the show! Hopefully I'll be back to myself next week!

IM BACK!!! Today we attempted to do a quick run down of everything I missed since the last episode... Little did we know A LOT of shyt happened since then... We also talk about Lil Nas X new video, magic mysticism and symbolism, The Suez Canal and what it's like coming out in the south. So I hope you enjoy.

After a tumultuous year I found myself in master procrastination mode. The holiday doom and gloom hit me like a ton of brick and then BAM capitol breech. Fortunately (Or Unfortunately Depending on how you see it) I DID NOT talk about that on this episode. Instead I revisited the episode I've been sitting on. On the first half We sit down with the Dynamic Duo The Queendom To talk about their upcoming album, merchandise and their beginnings venturing into the group collaboration. On the second half I talk with Iyana Love and Hemi Amere about the movie Juice, it's cultural significance, whether or not Tupac should have gone full thug life, other important hood classics I should visit in the coming year. There were some technical errors but we pushed through and I will get the hang of this as we close out season 2.

Lots of laughs, some serious topics relating to the recent shooting of unarmed Jacob Blake, dating during a pandemic, black business and how the pandemic has pretty much made our already crumbling social structure even more effed up. My Guests today are Gheri (https://www.instagram.com/g.h.e.r.i/ ), Space Liberace (https://www.instagram.com/spaceliberace/ ) and Kali P.

Today we talk about our entanglement with language. Our obsession with "good" and "bad" words, why some words are more socially acceptable than others and then we go off on one of those long political tangents I try to stay away from lol. My guests today are model and Artist Gheri Thomas and Instrumentalist and producer Alex Medrano AKA Space Liberace.

The reason many people have a hard time understanding the humanity of black people in america is because we have been successfully caricatured for so long that's it's hard to see us as anything more than the memes and stereotypes. That's the power of effective marketing. One of the people who understands this is Dent "Wildman" Myers a collector of racist memorabilia (among other things) who likens himself a historian. Thanks for tuning in to this strange and compelling interview I recorded a year ago to this day.

Today we mention my upcoming single about my recently passed grandmother Patricia Rose Brown McGhie Terrelongue (who was born and raised in Jamaica) We discuss my reasoning behind some of the traditional Jamaican aspects of the song and why I think or Don't think that Jamaicans invented Hip-Hop. Today's Guest Is Uncle Lo (Lorenzo Kornegay)... theologian and dad who watched the whole thing unfold from the beginning.

Does God exist? If not then what is the reason for you to do good? Have religious organizations turned people away because of hypocrisy? We talk about all these things and more with my guest Corey Achong who is an atheist. Can a believer and a non believer remain civil in their conversation in spite of their vastly different beliefs? FInd out today on The Late Bloomer Podcast :)
