Savannah in First Class, Diddy’s Luxe Life in Prison, & Rick Ross in Police Custody
24:43|Apparently, flying business class is a human rights violation, Diddy has discovered concierge service in federal prison, and Rick Ross is discussing rigatoni while facing criminal charges. We have officially lost the plot, and that's before we get to Cornell.
Aging Gracefully, Hillman's Legacy & That Cornell Lawsuit
29:31|Demi returns to Hillman to discuss messy marriages, legacy kids and more. Plus, what exactly does “aging gracefully” mean when women get dragged no matter what they do, Kimora Lee revisits three messy marriages, Jay-Z gets reflective (again), and a disturbing Cornell lawsuit has Demi unable to distinguish who the "good" guys are.
Misguided Righteousness, A Balanced Breakfast & Not Enough Dara
41:14|Demi heads back to Hillman, The Drop might be the best show on TV, and Nikole Hannah-Jones’ essay sparks a complicated conversation about Black flight, the Black elite, educational sacrifice—and whether righteous intentions can still lead to misguided choices.
Jay-Z Goes to Therapy, Converse Teases a Lynching & Russell Simmons Does Boy Math
40:07|Demi recaps her weekend at CBC before getting into Jay-Z’s intimate new documentary and Colin Kaepernick’s version of their complicated history. Plus, Converse has some explaining to do, Russell Simmons disputes Kimora Lee Simmons’ version of when they met, and Macklemore stands on business.
MBJ Half Nekkid for Vogue, Meghan Markle Betrayed by UK Moms & In Defense of Chris Brown
38:23|Michael B. Jordan in his drawers for Vogue, Meghan Markle’s UK drama has already begun, and what the hell is happening at the Kennedy Center? Also, Chris Brown is not wrong (about this one particular thing), and I resent everyone for making me say that
Jasmine Lost the Plot, Boosie Lost His Money & Papoose Lost His Mind
35:31|Jasmine Crockett lost the plot, Boosie got reverse scammed, and Papoose is still doing everything except signing divorce papers. Plus, RIP to fashion god Bob Mackie—and Mitch McConnell is actually alive. Sort of.
Jill Scott’s Bra, The Constitution Under Attack & LA’s Crack Era Is Back
28:54|We’re talking government censorship, Jill Scott’s gravity-defying bosom, and whether 1990s LA was really as wild as The Drop makes it look. Plus, P-Valley is finally back after four long years and Kennedy Ryan is collecting checks in every direction.
5 Blocks, 5 Babies & $1,000 for Beyoncé’s Box
37:09|25 years after 9/11, Demetria remembers living five blocks from the World Trade Center. Plus: Ciara’s fifth baby, Beyoncé’s $1,000 box, a long-awaited visit to the Obama Center, and a deathly penis injection.
Feminism, Fraud & Football
18:36|Demi survived Ghana, a US road trip and jet lag just in time to discuss the important things: Aaron Pierre and the very Black Lanterns, Ryan Clark's post-ESPN glow-up, the passing of feminist icon Gloria Steinem, and a man who allegedly convinced women he was an NFL player despite one tiny problem—HE WASN'T ON THE ROSTER.
