Episode 76 starts with football as we break down the NFL and college football weekend, Travis Hunter playing both ways, Alabama, the SEC and some early quarterback debates. Then we get into whether 2026 has been a weak year for hip-hop, what happened to rap's middle class, DDG balancing streaming and music, and the golden era of video vixens.
The conversation gets deeper toward the end as we talk about aging, attraction, validation, whether your partner can make you feel beautiful if you don't feel it yourself, whether a spouse should ever meet an ex for closure, and what it actually means to be healed.
Everything that's culture is us. Phone Home.
