JessKidding Podcast

A judge in California finally puts a stop to the Kars4Kids ads, and it is not the reason you think. The internet is not happy with the Kevin Hart Netflix Roast. We cover the NBA Conference Finals — who’s dominating, who’s on the verge of collapsing, and what the Finals matchup could actually look like. Our music tour continues, with the Baby Keem Casino concert. To close it out, we’ve got your May watch list lined up with the live-action Netflix One Piece and Man on Fire Netflix series — two very different vibes, but both worth the watch. Catch up with us. 

This week, the government signs off on a casual $70 billion ICE budget like it’s light work, relationships are dropping, and Apple is switching CEOs in September—because even trillion-dollar companies need a refresh. NBA Playoffs are already doing the most in Round 1, Kehlani drops a self-titled album. We still squeezed in a show pick: The Pitt — Season 1… because we’re a little late to Season 2. A little bit of everything, per usual.

Artemis II is pushing things out of this world while everything down here feels like it’s spiraling. The UK Wireless Festival gets scrapped, Oracle Corporation sends out 6am layoff emails like it’s routine, and Rory McIlroy goes back-to-back at The Masters Tournament like it’s nothing. Karol G shuts down Coachella making history, being the first Latina to close out the festival. This week we're recommending The Expanse - pressure, power, and space. Space missions, real-world chaos, and a little escape — tap in.  

This episode dives into the major headlines shaking things up — starting with Joe Kent stepping down and what his resignation says about growing tension around the Iran conflict. We also tap into global sports as Venezuela celebrates a huge win in the World Baseball Classic beating the US. On the music side, we cover Flea’s new solo album. To wrap it up, we’ve got a show recommendation with Paradise — a series worth adding to your watchlist. News, culture, and a little bit of everything — just how we like it.

Kristi Noem’s DHS exit, Ryan Gosling hosting SNL, and Apple’s new MacBook Neo in Nerd Nook. We also cover Paralympics highlights and Bruno Mars’ new album The Romantic. Our show pick this week: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms from the Game of Thrones universe.

This week, we get into the fuel crisis in Cuba and what happens when oil shipments get blocked. We take a moment to talk about the life and legacy of Rev. Jesse Jackson. We switch gears to the Olympics and our favorite moments from the Games, plus our thoughts on Baby Keem’s new album: Casino. We wrap it all up with a show recommendation you’ll definitely want to check out, “Mercy for None.”

We’re in Black History Month Energy, talking winter storms causing chaos, early buzz around Apple’s iPhone 17E, the 2026 Winter Olympics heating up, and J. Cole’s new album. We end the episode with our show pick: Wonder Man.

Flu season is in full force, politics continue to be… politics, and somehow retro is back and cooler than ever. The 49ers are still here (we’re thankful), Doechii dropped a new song, and our show of the week is Pluribus.
