Full Show | Ta-Nehisi Coates Forced To Defend Himself, The Walking Dad, and MORE

Amanda Seales and the crew start by recognizing National Smarties Day, National Pumpkin Seed Day, and National Custodial Workers Recognition Day. Author Ta-Nehisi Coates defended himself on CBS Mornings after a white co-host labeled him an ‘extremist,’ sparking a heated on-air discussion. We’ll also discuss why UCLA and the VA are being pressured to return land to veterans. Plus, DJ Supreme has some splainin to do as we tackle a range of fascinating stories.

In today’s “Big Up Let Down,” David Jones gets the Big Up for walking nearly 30 miles through hurricane debris to make it to his daughter’s wedding, earning him the title “The Walking Dad.” On the flip side, Nick Cannon’s decision to insure his testes for $10 million lands him the Let Down. In “Am I Trippin’,” we offer advice to a listener who’s feeling pressured to share more about his relationship on social media, despite the drama it causes. And, of course, don’t miss the Black Pop Quiz! Tune in for a jam-packed episode full of lively conversation and real talk.
