Join us for a transformative discussion with Grammy-winning gospel artist Kirk Franklin, whose musical genius and unwavering faith have reshaped contemporary Christian culture. In one of the most raw and revealing Pivot Podcasts to date, Kirk sits down with Ryan, Channing and Fred to open up about the deeply personal battles he's faced behind the spotlight. Known for his musical influence, Kirk shows a different side here—one marked by pain, healing, and redemption. With honesty, humor, and deep vulnerability, he talks about what it really takes to heal—when the cameras are off and the crowd is gone. The guys are able to get him to let his guard down, turn heavy moments light and provide a safe space as the conversation transcends into identity, family, and finding purpose not just through success, but through surrender. In this moving episode, Kirk opens up about: The art of writing hope: Exploring how music becomes a vessel for healing—both for himself and the world. Faith through the fire: Navigating personal struggles, spiritual seasons, and finding renewal in the midst of chaos. The scars of a turbulent upbringing – and how trauma shaped his views on love, trust, and self-worth. Faith when it's messy – how he wrestled with God during his darkest moments and found peace on the other side. Reuniting with the father he never knew – and the emotional toll of reconciling decades of abandonment. Fatherhood and forgiveness – breaking the cycle for his own children and choosing healing over bitterness. Leading with authenticity: What it means to shepherd a movement when you're also the one being led. With profound vulnerability and trademark energy, Kirk Franklin shares stories of redemption, breakthrough, and creative inspiration. This episode offers a blueprint for staying rooted in purpose, pursuing excellence, and never feeling to flawed to forgive and move forward. Comment and let us know your thoughts on this episode!

In this episode of The Underground Lounge, Lou, Spank, and Vic bring back their fan-favorite segment Tweets from the Streets, where Spank breaks down some of his wildest and most controversial tweets.The conversation kicks off with a fiery debate about Glorilla winning a BET Gospel Award for a feature with Kirk Franklin. Spank questions whether it's fair for non-gospel artists to be recognized in gospel categories, sparking a broader discussion about genre lines, culture, and inclusion.They shift into modern dating expectations after Spank questions the viral phrase “Don't approach me if you can't afford me,” calling out the transactional nature of some relationships. The group jokes through serious topics like victim-blaming, with Spank admitting he sometimes blames himself in tough situations just to feel a sense of control.They also dig into the infamous “I am the table” dating trope, clowning podcast culture and the empty flexes people use to dodge real conversation. From there, the crew lightens up, cracking jokes about cougar culture, club life, and how people now stage entire Instagram-worthy scenes inside the club to fake a lifestyle.The episode closes with a real talk about marriage, finances, and why social media has warped expectations around relationships. Spank reflects on his past marriage and why, for many men, love can feel like a bad business deal if the balance isn't right.Packed with laughs, sharp takes, and real honesty, this Tweets from the Streets episode is raw, hilarious, and relatable — the Underground Lounge at its best.

In this episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast, guests explore four compelling headlines. Gospel staple, Kirk Franklin recently revealed he attends therapy alongside his strong Christian faith, sharing that being adopted and growing up without a stable support system led him to seek professional help. The Grammys’ introduction of Best Traditional Country Album in 2026 drew criticism as a veiled response to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Grammy win, with fans say it signals segregation within the industry. Finally, Tyler Perry’s Netflix thriller Straw debuted at number one globally during its first week, amassing over 25 million views and proving Perry’s continued dominance in streaming with gripping storytelling filmed in just four days.

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.

In a tragic event, a peaceful pro-Israel rally in Boulder, Colorado, was violently disrupted when Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national, attacked participants with a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails, injuring 12 individuals, including a Holocaust survivor. Soliman, who had planned the attack for over a year, expressed anti-Zionist motives and is facing multiple charges, including attempted murder and federal hate crimes. The FBI is treating the incident as a targeted act of terrorism fueled by antisemitism. In lighter news, NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal has publicly distanced himself from the "celebrity" label, stating that he prefers to be seen as a regular person rather than being associated with the negative connotations he believes come with celebrity status. Additionally, the 2025 BET Awards will honor four entertainment legends—Mariah Carey, Jamie Foxx, Snoop Dogg, and Kirk Franklin—with the prestigious Ultimate Icon Award, recognizing their decades of contributions to music, entertainment, and community impact.

The 90s weren't just a decade—they were a whole movement. Black culture in the 90s shaped music, TV, fashion, business, and even the church in ways that still hit today. From Martin and Living Single to Tupac, TLC, and Kirk Franklin, the 90s gave us legends, game-changers, and cultural blueprints that remain undefeated. In this episode of The Jigsaw, we're taking a deep dive into the Black 90s experience—celebrating the shows that represented us, the music that moved us, and the icons who built legacies. We're talking style, ownership, and the influence of the Black church. And of course, we're debating the biggest questions: What was the best 90s show? Which song still slaps like it just dropped? Who had the most iconic style? If you grew up in the 90s—or just appreciate its greatness—this one's for you. Tap in and let's talk about the decade that made us.

Chaynler Joie is born for this, literally. This week, we sat down with the singer, songwriter, and all-around talent to talk about her journey from Springhill, Louisiana, to Dallas, the different hats she's worn in her career, and the moments that shaped her as an artist.

SEND US A MESSAGE! We'd Love to Chat With you and Hear your thoughts! We'll read them on the next episode. How many podcasts have you listened to on race? How many books? How many christian-based seminars have you sat in to be reminded that america has a race problem? How many times have you heard the christian retort, "no! America has a sin problem!"I agree with the latter sentiment. However, even with all of this, it seems we've acquiesced to a toxic narrative that subverts the king-given mission of the church. The fruit is rearing its ugly head and it must be addressed ad nauseum! Our biggest threat isn't racism. Our biggest threat is how we have discussed it and are currently discussing it.

For this episode of LaunchLeft Podcast, Rain is joined by renowned producer and musician John Congleton, who shares his journey in the music industry and his collaboration with emerging artist Sarah Kinsley. They explore the creative process, the significance of authenticity in art, and the unique dynamics of producing music. John Congleton shares his early musical influences and the pivotal moments that led him to become a producer, reflecting on his upbringing in a musically rich environment and the profound impact of punk rock on his creative journey. John launches Sarah Kinsley who reflects on working with John on her latest album, “Escaper”, highlighting the collaborative nature of music production and the challenges of translating studio work to live performances. ----------------- LAUNCHLEFT OFFICIAL WEBSITEhttps://www.launchleft.com LAUNCHLEFT PATREON https://www.patreon.com/LaunchLeft TWITTER https://twitter.com/LaunchLeft INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/launchleft/ FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/LaunchLeft --------------------- In This Episode: [5:30] John Congleton's Early Music Journey [10:48] The Role of Artists and Creativity [16:43] Mentorship and Influence of Steve Albini [21:33] John launches Sarah Kinsley [27:06] Creating Music with Physical Instruments [33:07] The Impact of Technology on Music Creation [38:25] Social Media and Artistic Perception Key Takeaways: Everyone is inherently creative, akin to breathing. It's about recognizing and nurturing that creativity in everyday life. Congleton believes that creativity is as natural as breathing. Everyone possesses it, but often, people forget their innate artistic potential. Recognizing and nurturing this creativity can lead to personal fulfillment and innovation. Artists serve as conduits for expressing the human experience. They capture the essence of what it feels like to be alive at a particular moment in time, offering insights that go beyond mere information through all forms of art and expression. The digital age presents new challenges, such as the instant playback of music and the pervasive influence of social media. Artists must balance these tools with their creative instincts to maintain authenticity. Performing live offers a unique opportunity to connect with audiences in a shared, ephemeral experience. It allows artists to reinterpret their work and engage with listeners on a deeper level.

From his astounding drum sounds to the aggressive guitar sounds he conjures, Congleton defines modern record production. Starting as a teenager in Dallas, Congleton studied and learned the craft of engineering from the ground up. While recording bands on the local scene he developed into an engineer of note. Soon he was being called to record projects as diverse as Kirk Franklin, Erykah Badu and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, all the while continuing to work with the local indie rock scene. Upon returning to Dallas, Congleton quickly established himself as the best producer in town. It was while working with the Polyphonic Spree he met Annie Clark, now better known as St. Vincent. Their partnership over six albums has won Grammy awards and been universally praised by critics as some of the most important music of our times. Now based in Los Angeles, Congleton continues to grow and flourish. In addition to the repeat business from long-time clients, he’s now established among the best of the best. Recent productions include Death Cab for Cutie, The Murder Capital, Tegan and Sara, Regina Spektor, Wallows, Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten and many more.
Former NBAer and “Fearless” contributor Royce White won the Republican senatorial primary in Minnesota. Many in the press are calling White's win a surprise, but Jason makes the case that the victory will threaten Donald Trump's campaign and make Royce a poster child for what's wrong with the MAGA movement. Jason, Shemeka Michelle, and T.J. Moe discuss White's primary triumph, his chances of unseating Amy Klobuchar, and whether his primary win will make him a player in the conservative political sphere moving forward. ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit says he's done holding his tongue on tough social and political issues. Whitlock and T.J. discuss Herbie's newfound bravery and who may have paved the way for him to speak his mind. In Tennessee Harmony, Anthony Walker, Virgil Walker, and Kevin Donahue debate gospel singer Kirk Franklin's controversial words on marriage. We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!
