Summary

In this episode of Brilliant Idiots, Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz, dive into everything from holiday vibes and Christmas traditions to the wild world of celebrity culture. They discuss Jason Derulo’s controversial comments about working with women, what happens when stereotypes go unchecked, and how power shows up in relationships and society. From there, we break down the Diddy documentary and the darker side of the entertainment industry, fame, accountability, silence, and the way power can twist things behind the scenes. We also get into how the industry is shifting with the rise of podcasting, how live events are changing, and why it’s so important to recognize complicity when it comes to abuse and influence. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠ Jess Hilarious - Til Death Do We Parent - Pre Order 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God - ⁠Pre Order⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel -⁠Order Link⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley - ⁠Order Link⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks- By Charlamagne Tha God - ⁠Order Link⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz - ⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" - ⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
