  Full EP | Actor Da’Vinchi Calls Black Americans Lazy and to Forget Slavery; Should Grown Children Pay Rent at Parent’s Home; Should Grown Children Pay Rent at Parent’s Home; John Legend Starts Initiative to Pay College Students Rent; Weird Things Women Do According to Men; and More 07.10.2026 45min

  From a viral diaspora debate to a family standoff over rent, this episode brings the heat, the heart, and the everyday habits that keep relationships interesting. D.L. Hughley and the crew respond to actor Da’Vinchi’s appearance on Cam Newton’s Funky Friday, where he criticized Americans as overly dependent and “incompetent” while discussing work ethic, parenting, and why overseas actors land U.S. roles; Newton pushed back that convenience and efficiency are not the same as laziness, and Da’Vinchi later acknowledged that his sweeping statement should have been more specific. The show rejects the broader framing—especially any suggestion that Black Americans should simply move past slavery—arguing that the institution’s legacy and the systems built from it still shape American life.  The Question of the Day shifts the conversation to whether a 29-year-old son and his partner should contribute $600 a month after moving into his parents’ home to escape a $3,700 rent bill, with the hosts and callers largely agreeing that grown adults should help cover food and utilities—and ideally use the reduced cost to save toward independence; the question lands at a time when about 20% of Americans ages 25 to 34 live with their parents, with high housing costs a major driver. The crew also salutes John Legend for partnering with Bilt and Scholarship America to provide 50 eligible off-campus students at Morehouse College, Central State University, Wilberforce University, and his alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania, with one-time, need-based $850 housing awards—an effort inspired by his own experience working multiple jobs to pay rent in college. Jasmine Sanders closes with a playful list of habits men find puzzling, from buying painful shoes and rejecting every restaurant suggestion to guarding decorative soap and claiming not to want fries before eating someone else’s.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Full EP | 1200 Sexual Assaults at Cornell from 2018-2024; Jamal Kingsley on One Voyage Jeopardy; Actor and Comedian Niecy Nash Joins DLHS Crew; Woman Cancels Date Because of Man’s Attire; and More   06.10.2026 42min

  From a campus accountability crisis to a first-date fashion emergency, D.L. Hughley and the crew bring sharp commentary, candid conversation, and plenty of laughs. D.L. responds to reporting that Cornell’s Title IX office received more than 1,200 reports involving sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking from 2018 through 2024; disciplinary charges were filed in 162 cases, at least one person was found responsible in 51, 14 resulted in suspension, and only seven ended in expulsion or dismissal. The troubling numbers fuel his wider critique of wealth, influence, and institutions that fail to hold powerful people accountable.  The mood lightens when Jamal Kingsley hosts One Voyage Jeopardy, challenging contestants to identify lyrics by cruise performers including E.U., Da Brat, and Dave Hollister; the 25th-anniversary One Voyage sailing is billed as six nights of music, culture, and community in support of HBCU scholarships and resources. Actor and comedian Niecy Nash then joins the show to discuss refusing stereotypical “sassy Black” roles, proving her dramatic range on HBO’s Getting On, and paying her success forward by helping others find work. The episode wraps with a viral dating debate after TikToker Wunderr says a woman canceled their first date just 15 minutes before pickup when she saw his glittering rhinestone shirt, pants, and shoes—an outfit that had the crew and the internet choosing sides over personal style, compatibility, and first impressions.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Full EP | Department of Education Resends Biden-Era Title IX; Two Execution Attempts and Tennessee Still Alive; Cornell University Conducting Investigation for 2024 Sexual Assault Case; One Voyage Jeopardy with Jamal Kingsley; and More 02.10.2026 43min

  One show, four conversations, and absolutely no shortage of controversy—D.L. Hughley and the crew bring the heat with politics, justice, campus accountability, and plenty of laughs. The team examines the Education Department’s formal repeal of the Biden-era Title IX rule and restoration of the 2020 regulations, a move the administration frames as protecting women’s athletics while critics warn it could weaken safeguards for transgender students and survivors of sexual violence. The debate intensifies around Christa Pike, who remained alive after Tennessee administered two doses of pentobarbital during a failed execution; callers weigh her brutal crime and traumatic childhood against questions of cruel punishment, second chances, and whether the state should try again.  The conversation turns to accountability at Cornell University, which agreed to an outside review of its handling of allegations that a former student was drugged and sexually assaulted by multiple fraternity members in 2024; the criminal investigation has also been reopened, with prosecutors reviewing whether evidence should go before a grand jury, and the allegations remain unproven in court. D.L. uses the case to challenge the selective way society talks about crime and the protection too often afforded to accused men on college campuses. Then Jamal Kingsley lightens the mood with One Voyage Jeopardy, testing contestants on lyrics from E.U., Da Brat, and Dave Hollister while building excitement for the upcoming six-day One Voyage cruise aboard Resilient Lady, featuring a packed lineup of music, comedy, food, and live experiences.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
