Podcasts about Deon

This week, I'm sitting down with gospel recording artist and model Deon Robertson straight out of Oklahoma City, and family, this conversation is powerful.Deon opens up about his connection to gospel music legends, his unique sound he calls “Soul Gospel Music,” and the moment his faith was truly challenged. He shares the hard lessons life required him to learn, and the very real pain that inspired his heartfelt single, “Working Out For Your Good.”This episode is honest, reflective, and full of encouragement for anyone trusting God through the process—even when it hurts. If you've ever questioned, waited, or wondered if God was still working behind the scenes… this one is for you.

Ms. Pat told Chris and Deon to watch the Diddy documentary, but they didn't. She didn't either. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The boys, back in town, discuss what they have been listening to. Their list includes four rock and roll hall of famers, three recently departed legends, two underground rap heavyweights, and a partridge in a pear tree. Jay's wing gets clipped as Deon's sampling gets a little out of hand.

Na coluna desta quinta-feira (04), o professor Deonísio da Silva fala sobre as palavras "Imposto" e "Impostômetro".

This week on The Underground Lounge, Lou and Spank sit down with the legendary Deon Cole for a conversation that's equal parts hilarious, insightful, and absolutely unpredictable. From the moment he steps into the Lounge, Deon brings that unmistakable Chicago energy and a lifetime of stories from the road, including his early days grinding in the Chicago comedy scene, rocking Timbs on stages that demanded suits, and literally changing the culture just by showing up as himself.Deon opens up about discovering stand-up almost by accident, the moment he realized comedy was his purpose, and the unforgettable Def Jam tour experience that pushed him to level up his writing and craft. He breaks down how embracing silence became his comedic superpower, the origins of his iconic notebook on stage, and why he sometimes enjoys bombing on purpose just to keep audiences honest.Lou and Spank dig into Deon's wild journey from the clubs to becoming one of the most respected writers in the game, from helping craft Ricky Smiley's classic prank call CDs, to joining Comic View, to eventually making history as the first Black writer on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Deon shares behind-the-scenes stories from the writers' room, how one unexpected bit turned into Emmy nominations, and the moment he almost quit the show before everything changed overnight.The conversation goes even deeper as Deon talks about landing Angie Tribeca, becoming “Charlie” on Black-ish (a role originally written for Charlie Murphy), and navigating Hollywood in a way that's stayed authentic to who he is. Along the way, the guys swap stories about clubs, cities, strip lounges, and why Chicago produces some of the funniest comedians in the world.This episode is packed with gems for comedy fans, creators, and anyone who appreciates a raw, unfiltered look at the grind behind the glow-up. Deon's honesty, humor, and perspective shine from start to finish, making this one of the most entertaining and inspiring sit-downs ever in the Underground Lounge.Tune in now and enjoy the ride.

What if we really believed that God could never fail? This message takes us into Luke 17:11–19, where ten outcasts lifted their voices for mercy—and Jesus answered with an instruction, not an instant miracle. "Go, show yourselves to the priests." The miracle didn't meet them in the moment… it met them on the way. Faith prayed. Faith obeyed. Faith gave thanks. And one returned—not just healed, but completely restored. Sometimes God's breakthrough comes wrapped in a step of obedience. Sometimes the miracle is found in the walk, not the waiting. The question isn't if God can move—it's whether we'll take the step before we see the result.

Na coluna desta quinta-feira (27), o professor Deonísio da Silva fala sobre a origem da palavra "Farmácia".

Newly elected regional councillors are in for a big change, with sweeping Government reforms. RMA Reform Minister Chris Bishop recently unveiled plans to replace the country's 11 regional councils with boards consisting of local mayors. He suggests this will streamline decision-making, planning and infrastructure across regions. LGNZ Regional Sector Chair Deon Swiggs says the mandate for mayors is different, so they wouldn't have expected to be on a regional board. "There might be some mayors that go - great, yep, we want to get our hands on that regional council. There will be others who go - this is not my jam, I don't want to do that, what are you thinking?"

On August 21st, 2025, I hosted a #HamilTEN event where I was asked to moderate a conversation with five actors who have played Aaron Burr over the years: Nik Walker, Donald Webber Jr., Jared Dixon, Marc delaCruz, and Deon'te Goodman. It was extra fun because they are all my friends and have all appeared on the podcast! This is the full audio of our chat, including the first announcement about the ending of The Hamilcast. It won't be any surprise for you to learn that this conversation was *excellent.* All of these guys have so much insight and incredible things to say; we absolutely could have kept talking for a lot longer but with subways to catch and half hour calls to make, we were on a very strict deadline. We had deep dives on deep dives into Burr the person, Burr the character, and everything that comes with the massive responsibility of playing this role. We talked about if Burr is truly a villain or really just misunderstood (and kinda valid in his thought process?!), and learned about clues into the real Aaron Burr's psyche the night before the fateful duel against Alexander Hamilton (hint: handwriting!). Plus, fun details about performing the role onstage, how other characters can inform the way this one is played, and you can't have a conversation about A.Burr without going in on the dreaded table jump. Thank you again to everyone who came to the event, to Hamilton for asking me to do this, and to the wonderful guys sharing the mics with me.
