In a wild twist on the Amanda Seales Show, the spotlight turns to Sean "Diddy" Combs amidst the newly uncovered report about Kid Cudi’s Porsche being intentionally set ablaze back in 2012. While the Los Angeles City Fire Department confirms the fire was caused by an incendiary device, leaving a $10,000 damage bill, it’s Diddy who steals the show with a cheeky comparison: as much as his antics might paint him as a questionable character, he’d fit right in as an old-school Batman villain. Seales hilariously imagines Diddy’s dramatic flair, suggesting that his blend of chaos and charisma could easily have him plotting schemes in Gotham, proving that sometimes the line between celebrity and supervillain blurs just a bit too much! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(17:27) - BLACKURATE NEWSIT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW! I’M AMANDA SEALES… AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR SOME BLACKURATE NEWS. STORY 1: The U.S. State Department issued a Level 3 travel advisory for Jamaica, urging Americans to exercise “increased caution” due to an increase in violent crimes.  According to the text, incidents such as home invasions, armed robberies, sexual assaults, and homicide are common in the country and sexual assaults are frequent, including at all-inclusive resorts. News Nation travel editor Peter Greenberg said “The good news is, in most cases, these crimes are not crimes committed or targeted at travelers or tourists. They’re gang versus gang crimes, much like we’ve seen in Mexico over the last 15 years. And the same applies to Jamaica.” Gotta be careful with ANY messaging coming from the U.S. What should be the travel advisories for people coming to America ? Be careful existing while Black.. Or gay… or non-Christian. DC and the Bay Don’t leave anything on your seats in Atlanta. Actually, if you can take the seat out of your car, do it.  American tourism has really ravaged our caribbean countries Jamaica’s can’t even use the beach.

This is your “MOMENTS IN BLACK HOOD HISTORY,” a tribute to little known historical facts that originated in the HOOD. Kool Aid was invented by a white man in 1927, but it was the Black community that transformed Kool Aid FLAVORS into COLORS.  It was a summer day in the South. The Black mother standing inside the kitchen with a squeaky screen door, said to her Black child, “Go make me some Kool aid, to which the child replied, what kind?”  Black mother said– RED Koolaid, and the rest is history. The child instantly knew his mother’s desires. The words “cherry or strawberry” Kool Aid haven't been uttered since. Thanks to Black people for the popularization of Kool Aid flavors!

Yt men who perpetuate yt supremacy have never truly cared about their women other than for power purposes so it would come as no surprise that they would consciously present images of yt women with black men as a method of dismantling the black family, black identity, and obtaining opps to further their yt supremacist agenda.

Under the Republican bill, admission into programs, and tuition assistance that's aimed at disadvantaged students, could only consider the wealth of the student and their family. Sen. Eric Wimberger, Republican of Green Bay, Wisconsin, one of the bill's co-authors, said he acknowledged the lingering effects of racism, but he maintained race-based programs and assistance in higher education would enable bad actors more than it'd help underserved people.   (7:47) - POP CULTURE This story is the essence of “they should’ve never gave y’all social media.” Tyrese, who we all respect for his voice and talents… stay Tyresing. He posted a video of a Latino family doing family-oriented things, and in his caption demeaned and berated the entire BLACK race.   (12:43) - 60 SECOND HEADLINES Tanya Chutkan, the federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020 election interference case, is postponing the trial until his appeals play out on the question of whether presidential immunity protects him from being prosecuted. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has acknowledged her personal relationship with Nathan Wade… the lead prosecutor on the Trump case, but says it doesn’t disqualify her. Welcome Home Franklin! A new ‘Peanuts’ special will finally let Franklin, the first Black Peanut character, sit by White friends (Charlie Brown, Peppermint Patty, Linus, Pig Pen and the gang). Killer Mike's Grammys night came to an early end last night... because he was led out of the event in handcuffs -- after an alleged physical altercation with a security guard.   (15:09) – We’ll go to the phonelines.

Before we jump in, give us a brief overview of this case for those who may not remember.   (24:05) - ATTORNEY GERALD GRIGGS – Part 2   (28:39) - BIG UP, LET DOWN BIG UP - to an almost bride-to-be in California for her generosity and foresight!! An anonymous woman in California learned “something” (hmmm) about her fiancé’ and decided to call their wedding off. BUT she’d already paid a $15k non-refundable fee for the wedding reception. Double BIG up: she donated the reception party to a non-profit called Parents Helping Parents which provides community support to parents with children who have special needs. AND she and her almost-husband didn’t waste anybody’s time or money by getting married into a chaotic situation. Some people would’ve been like, “Oh we finna have this reception, so we don’t waste money!”   LET DOWN - to piss poor journalism and cultural appropriation during Black History Month. Superbowl-bound Chiefs player Travis Kelce has made the news recently for popularizing the FADE haircut, y’all! Yes, the hairstyle Black men have been rocking since the Black ICE ages. New York Times’ Alyson Krueger titled an article, “They’ll Take the Travis Kelce — Hairdo, That Is.” Apparently a lot of men are taking to their local barbershops and asking for a haircut similar to Kelce’s. The article cites a TikTok video from barber Jeff Dugas saying that his brother came in with photos of Kelce for reference. It also cites a different TikTok video from barber Nigel Miller, who said his client was going for “that Travis Kelce look.” WHAT ARE WE DOING?! This is just bad journalism and poor research! White folks gone find a way to take the credit for Black swag one way or another. On the football field, behind a typewriter, in the newsroom…   (32:50) - WEEKEND RECAP IT’S THE AMANDA SEALES SHOW… I’M AMANDA SEALES…   (35:17) - WE UP, WE UP, WE UP!!

SMALL DOSES SEGMENT - (SIDE EFFECTS OF PRISON FEMINISM) WITH MY GUEST RICHIE RESEDA.   (37:23) - BLACKURATE NEWS America is not a racist country they say! Well why was the statue of the first Major League baseball player, Jackie Robinson, cut off at the ankles and burned in Wichita, Kansas? You heard me! Someone(s) cut the statue off at the ankles, stole it and it was later found burned in a public trash container. Thanks to a GoFundMe campaign, at least $175,000 has been received to fund the replacement. Other facts The Jackie Robinson statue, which officials valued at $75,000, was designed by the late artist John Parsons. Lutz previously said the new statue will be created from an existing mold of Parsons’ original work. Money that is raised beyond the cost of the statue’s replacement will go toward supporting the league and improvements at the pavilion where the statue is displayed, including additional security, according to League 42.   (40:25) - KICK OFF - GROUP CHAT TOPIC OF THE WEEK Well, this seems like the conversation that never ends, it just goes on and on, my friends!
