Show notes

🔥 BAD SPEAKERS TV EPISODE 235 | THE POWER OF MOTION 🔥 This episode proves that if you sit still long enough, life will pass you by... but if you're moving, making plays, and staying active, eventually something has to shake. That's exactly what we get into on this week's episode of Bad Speakers TV. Ya Boi Shad and G. Downs jump right into one of Atlanta's never-ending debates: OutKast vs Future. Is Future really the most impactful artist to ever come out of Atlanta, or are people suffering from a severe case of recency bias? At this point, this debate has more rematches than a boxing trilogy, and somehow it gets more heated every single time. We also take a moment to discuss the passing of legendary producer Tay Keith and the impact his music and production had on modern hip-hop. His sound helped shape an era, and we reflect on the legacy he leaves behind. 🏀 On the sports side, we break down the latest chapter of the Caitlin Clark vs Angel Reese rivalry after the Atlanta Dream handed the Indiana Fever back-to-back losses. Is this becoming the biggest rivalry in sports, or are fans and media creating a superhero movie out of a regular basketball game? We also discuss the WNBA's decision to expand to a 50-game season and whether that's a great move for growth or a recipe for tired legs and ice packs. The conversation gets wild when we tackle one of the internet's most dangerous topics: stereotypes. Are some of the things people say actually true, or do stereotypes exist because folks refuse to mind their business? As always, we approach it the Bad Speakers way—with laughs, honesty, and just enough foolishness to get ourselves in trouble. 🎤 Hip-hop takes center stage again when we discuss T.I.'s upcoming album Kill The King and his comments about Verzuz being "broke people activities." Is Tip speaking facts, or did he just accidentally declare war on everybody who enjoyed Verzuz during the pandemic? We also dive into Kodak Black's decision to go independent and whether betting on himself is the smartest move of his career. To make things even more interesting, Young Thug reportedly wants to sign him. Would Kodak be better off building his own empire or joining someone else's? And because every sports debate eventually turns into a barbershop argument, we close things out by discussing the toughest NBA player of all time. Not the best. Not the most talented. The toughest. The answers may start friendships... or end them. If you enjoy hip-hop debates, sports talk, relationship conversations, culture discussions, and the type of opinions that make people yell at their phones while listening, this episode is for you. 👍 LIKE 💬 COMMENT 🔔 SUBSCRIBE And tell us in the comments: Who really has Atlanta's crown—OutKast or Future? And who is the toughest player in NBA history?

BAD SPEAKERS PODCAST EPISODE 234 | DEEPEST DARKEST Jun 17, 2026

Show notes

🔥 BAD SPEAKERS TV EPISODE 234 | DEEPEST DARKEST 🔥

Some episodes make you laugh. Some episodes make you think. This one somehow does both while making you question humanity, sports media, relationships, and whether somebody might actually have roots on you.

This week, Ya Boi Shad and G. Downs dive headfirst into some of the wildest stories on the internet and come out with more questions than answers. We kick things off with the debate surrounding LeBron James being named Athlete of the Century. Is King James really the greatest athlete of the last 100 years, or did Time Magazine leave some legends off the list? We also celebrate the New York Knicks winning the NBA Finals and debate whether Finals MVP Jalen Brunson has officially entered superstar territory.

The basketball talk doesn't stop there. We discuss Kyrie Irving putting on a masterclass at the Top 100 Camp and reminding everyone why he's one of the most skilled players the game has ever seen. That naturally leads us into another heated debate: Who is truly the face of the NBA today? And while we're at it, was Kobe Bryant ever really the face of the league, or is that one of those arguments guaranteed to start a family feud at the cookout?

Then things get weird... and by weird, we mean Bad Speakers TV weird.

The crew reacts to comedian Haha Davis' viral appearance on Club Shay Shay, where he told a story that had the entire internet clutching their pearls and checking on their spouses. Could YOU ever let another man sleep with your wife? The answers get uncomfortable real fast.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk continues proving he's playing a completely different game than the rest of us. We discuss reports that cafeteria workers became millionaires after SpaceX went public and whether the American Dream is still alive—or if it's hiding somewhere on Mars.

We also tackle the latest controversy involving Charles Barkley and comments that sparked backlash during the NBA Finals. Did he go too far, or is this another example of social media looking for a reason to be angry?

And because this episode is called "Deepest Darkest," we couldn't leave without talking about the things your auntie swears are real. Do you believe in roots? Voodoo? Spiritual attacks? Bad energy? Or is that just what people say when life starts life-ing?

To close things out, we discuss first impressions and why some people can ruin their chances within the first thirty seconds of meeting you. Sometimes one handshake can tell you everything you need to know.

As always, expect hilarious takes, wild stories, sports debates, relationship conversations, conspiracy theories, and the type of honest dialogue that only happens on Bad Speakers TV.

BAD SPEAKERS PODCAST EPISODE 233 | CITY ON MY BACK FEATURING YUNG BOOKE Jun 16, 2026

Show notes

🔥 BAD SPEAKERS TV EPISODE 233 | CITY ON MY BACK FEATURING YUNG BOOKE 🔥

This isn't just another rap interview—this is a real conversation with one of Atlanta's most respected and underrated artists.

Ya Boi Shad and G. Downs sit down with Atlanta native and street legend Yung Booke for one of his most open and honest interviews to date. From growing up in Capitol Homes and Adamsville to becoming one of the city's most influential voices, Booke takes us through the highs, lows, wins, losses, beefs, relationships, and lessons that helped shape his journey.

Booke talks about his childhood in Atlanta, his relationship with his father, playing AAU basketball alongside Javaris Crittenton, and the high school diss that pushed him toward rap. He opens up about the early days of Money Gang with Montana Da Mac and Fresh, how Money Savage became Money Savage, and whether he feels he ever received the recognition his talent deserved.

The conversation gets even deeper as Booke discusses his relationship with Future, the story behind the fan-favorite record "Bandana 6.3" with Freaky, and how Future's support helped bring attention to the record. He also addresses one of the biggest questions surrounding his career: did other rappers steal his style? And if so, why doesn't he get more credit for helping shape Atlanta's sound?

Nothing is off limits as Booke speaks candidly about his past issues with Kwony Cash and 21 Savage, how those situations were resolved, and where those relationships stand today. He also reflects on signing with Grand Hustle, working with T.I., appearing on a Metro Boomin project, and whether he feels the opportunities matched the expectations.

Of course, we couldn't talk Atlanta without discussing Young Thug. Booke shares his relationship with Thug, recent moments spent with him, the success of their Billboard-charting hit "Emotions," and what it was like being around for some of the biggest moments in Atlanta rap history.

The interview also touches on fatherhood, loyalty, mental health, the pressures of the music industry, thoughts on Atlanta being labeled "Ratlanta," whether being too real can hurt your career, and the times he considered walking away from rap altogether.

And because this is Bad Speakers TV, we had to get into some laughs too—including the infamous microphone mishap at Young Thug's welcome home celebration at State Farm Arena that had everybody talking.

If you're a fan of Atlanta hip-hop, Future, Young Thug, T.I., Metro Boomin, Grand Hustle, street culture, or just love hearing authentic stories from artists who helped build the city, this is an interview you don't want to miss.

This is Yung Booke like you've never heard him before.

BAD SPEAKERS PODCAST EPISODE 232 | PICK A STRUGGLE Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

🚨 BAD SPEAKERS TV EPISODE 232 | PICK A STRUGGLE 🚨 This episode starts off like a sports show, turns into a hip-hop debate, takes a detour through billionaire territory, and somehow ends with grown adults arguing over which hygiene problem they'd rather live with for the rest of their lives. Welcome to Bad Speakers TV. 😭 🏀 We break down the NBA Finals, discuss Steph Curry's surprising move to Li-Ning, and react to Terry Rozier reportedly losing an entire season's salary over sports betting violations. We also talk about Victor Wembanyama turning down soda endorsement money because he doesn't want to contribute to childhood obesity. Imagine telling a corporation, "Nah, I'm good. I like kids alive." 🎤 Then we jump into hip-hop and culture as we debate Complex's "50 Greatest New York Rappers of All Time" list. Who got robbed? Who got ranked too high? And who got put on the list strictly because somebody in the office lost a bet? 💸 Speaking of ridiculous numbers, Elon Musk could reportedly become the world's first trillionaire. At that point, you're not rich anymore—you are the economy. We discuss just how absurd that amount of money really is and whether any human should have that much wealth. 🚔 We also react to the latest legal developments involving Lil Durk and discuss the growing trend of prosecutors using interviews, lyrics, social media, and public appearances as evidence. 🥥 Plus, Tom Brady launches a coconut water brand called "Good Nut," proving once again that no amount of Super Bowl rings can save you from getting clowned on the internet. 😂 Then the conversation goes completely off the rails... Would you rather have stinking breath or a stinking ass? Can a grown man realistically date a virgin or someone who's celibate in today's dating world? And why do these conversations always expose people more than they intended? If you enjoy NBA talk, hip-hop debates, celebrity news, relationship discussions, and completely unhinged conversations that somehow make perfect sense, this episode is for you. 🔥 LIKE 🔥 COMMENT 🔥 SUBSCRIBE And be honest in the comments... If you had to PICK A STRUGGLE... which one are you choosing? (Choose carefully. Your answer says a lot about you. 😂) #BadSpeakersTV #PickAStruggle #NBAFinals #StephCurry #VictorWembanyama #LilDurk #ElonMusk #TomBrady #HipHopPodcast #sportspodcast
