In this episode of Everyday Black Men, the crew picks up where "Reed's Split Personality" left off, with Reed praising the CFPB chair featured on Breaking Points. White Collar Suge declares his political independence but gets heated when Riker cracks a joke about him being a certain animal, sparking playful tension. The discussion shifts to critiques of Obama and the gig economy, with Riker calling out Uber as a fake job and dubbing Suge the “Blue Collar Supreme” among his peers. Reed jokes that Suge has earned the right to start cheating now that he's "made it," prompting Riker to ask if Reed is projecting. The episode wraps with Suge reflecting on wasted opportunities in the Black community, like squandering refund checks on Jordans, while Reed throws in a jab about $20 baby photo shoots and staying humble—closing the episode with laughter and layered insights.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/everyday-black-men--2988631/support.

This week, Rob Chappell brings you news and voices from the community while the rest of the team is scattered. Highlights include:

It's chaos, it's comedy, and it's classic Virgo Season energy. From tech fails to Friday the 13th vibes, Ryan and Joyhdae kick off this episode with pure ghetto brilliance—and it only gets wilder from there. Is Mercury in micro braids? Possibly. Did the gym lie to Ryan? Definitely. And Joyhdae's mirror might be part of a conspiracy too.We're unpacking everything from Krispy Kreme hacks to summer body delusions and poolside flexes. But then—bam! A wedding day fake-out story involving a stroke, a facelift, and a runaway bride who says “no” to mama's boys takes us on an emotional rollercoaster. You will scream.Also in the mix: Teyana Taylor's hard launch with Aaron Pierre (yes, we're watching closely), R. Kelly's emergency motion from prison (what?!), and the BET Awards bringing Black Excellence back to the forefront (shout out to Jamie Foxx, Mariah's corsets, and Kirk Franklin's 20-person gospel army).Plus, Tyler Perry's “Straw” gets the Virgo Season roast it deserves, ICE raids raise serious red flags, and Eric Adams tries to go influencer mode… and fails. Again. Don't miss this episode—it's messy, it's hilarious, and it's giving all the unfiltered Virgo Season vibes you love.  Drop your thoughts in the comments:    •    Would you ditch your child's wedding for a (fake) brain surgery?    •    Are ICE raids proof this country is spiraling?    •    And does Mariah ever need to move on stage?Connect With Us:• Email: Virgoseasonshow@gmail.com• Website: Virgoseasonshow.com• YouTube, TikTok & Instagram: @VirgoSeasonShow• Ryan: @OhBlackRyan• Joyhdae: @JoyhdaeLike, comment, and subscribe to stay tapped into the realest commentary on the culture.

Send us a textThe MET Gala is an annual fundraising event for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City where celebrities, designers, and cultural icons show up dressed to embody a specific theme that aligns with the Costume Institute's newest exhibit.This year's theme for 2025 is Black Style and dandyism.Originating in the 18th and 19th centuries, dandyism is a cultural and aesthetic movement that champions elegance, refinement, and self-expression — particularly through clothing. But for Black men, especially in the Atlantic diaspora, dandyism wasn't just style — it was resistance. A way to reclaim power, pride, and identity in the face of oppression.This year's theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”, centers around Black excellence, Black creativity, and Black identity. It explores how Black individuals across the U.S. and Europe have used fashion not just to express themselves, but to rewrite the narrative. Support the showhttps://www.youtube.com/@lifeonpodcast/videos

lOn this episode of the Black in Sports Podcast, we're spotlighting one of the rising leaders in Coaching. Changing the culture: coach Brandon Blackmon Defensive Coordinator at Delaware State University is excited for the challenge. The Hornets Football program, now serving under newly appointed Head Coach Deshawn Jackson "Coach Jac", Coach is helping usher in a new era for the #DSUHornets, focused on culture, commitment, and competitive excellence.

In 2018, Amanda Chandler became the first licenced black Certified Professional Midwife in the state of Indiana, and in 2020 the first in Kentucky. Amanda is a trailblazer, nature lover, and birth geek extraordinaire. In this episode we talk about how closing rural hospitals' OB units impacts her work as a community midwife, her path to midwifery, career trajectory, challenging state policies, and so much more. I could think of no better way to celebrate Black Maternal Health Week than celebrating with the brilliant Amanda Chandler CPM. 

“You know Detroit is about the look, the feel, it's a Detroit essence to the culture.” That essence radiates through Jessica Blair, the visionary behind Jessica Blair Beauty, a proudly Black-owned beauty supply store in the heart of Rosedale Park on Grand River. From learning hair care in her grandmother's community-rooted home on Blaine Street to launching her own store after midnight shifts in psych hospitals, Jessica's journey is one of resilience and intention. “It sounded crazy, but I felt like it was God telling me — no, this is what you need to do,” she shares. Her shop bridges tradition and trend, offering everything from natural hair essentials like TGIN to bundles and silk press staples. And she's not just selling beauty — she's restoring a legacy. “It was very community oriented,” Jessica remembers of her upbringing, a value now baked into her brand. Through thefts, floods, and pandemic pivots, she turned setbacks into success. Her grand opening on February 21 marked more than a business launch — it's a celebration of Detroit beauty, Black womanhood, and the power of doing it yourself, for your people.
