The D.L. Hughley Show

Lawsuits, leftover love triangles, and a little Hornets kindness collide on The D.L. Hughley Show. The Jazzy Report opens with news that France’s first couple, Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, are taking Candace Owens to court again, this time in Tennessee, where she lives. The new federal complaint, filed November 4, accuses Owens of repeatedly pushing a baseless claim that Brigitte is transgender in order to build her brand, sell merchandise and solicit donations. It follows an October 27 Delaware ruling that dismissed Owens personally over jurisdiction while letting claims against her companies continue, and the Macrons argue her comments are defamatory because they paint the couple as having deceived the public. The Question of the Day then asks whether an ex-wife deserves more child support because her ex-husband’s new wife earns more than he does. The crew and callers largely say no, noting the settlement was already made, that a new spouse’s income is typically not counted unless it is treated as shared household income, and that the story gets messier because the ex-wife reportedly quit her CVS pharmacy tech job for part-time waitressing while the ex-husband, a disabled veteran, is now raising a new baby.  The Human Being of the Week goes to Charlotte Hornets star Brandon Miller, who bought 500 tickets so breast cancer survivors and their families could attend a game in honor of his mother, a survivor herself. Miller, 23, partnered with Novant Health for the second straight year and then scored a career-high 39 points in the Hornets’ win over the Wizards on Breast Cancer Awareness Night, even as D.L. and the crew can’t resist a few jokes about Charlotte. The show closes with Jasmine’s countdown of five ways your body tells you you’re with the wrong man: rising blood pressure, no satisfaction, no appetite, feeling backed up, and not being able to sleep well next to him.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Political pressure, a painful beauty appointment, and a powerful conversation—D.L. Hughley and the crew are bringing the heat and the laughs. The team questions whether Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are ready to meet the moment, with D.L. calling for a stronger approach while arguing that Jeffries deserves a chance to lead. Their debate comes as Jeffries and Schumer outline an agenda focused on affordability, expanded healthcare access, and accountability. D.L.’s GED Section also reflects on Mississippi’s Senate contest and his change of heart about independent candidate Ty Pinkins, while a peek into Jasmine’s Diary delivers a hilariously uncomfortable account of a salon visit that leaves her tiptoeing out the door.  Journalist and author April Ryan joins the crew for a candid, laughter-filled conversation about Notes on a Blacklash: When a Black Woman Goes Viral, exploring the backlash Black women face when their voices and achievements command attention. Her book examines the personal cost of online attacks rooted in race and gender, and the resilience it takes to reclaim your story. Ryan stresses the importance of recognizing Black women’s contributions and refusing to be silenced, even as D.L. keeps the jokes coming. Then the Militant Man Jamal Kingsley returns with an over-the-top satirical take on everyday racism, finding comic connections in airport luggage, autumn leaves, and coveted black credit cards.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  Music Credits:  Bon Voyage/Ryan James Carr/Courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
