GOOD CULTURE PODCAST

Keep Podcastin' Feb 11, 2021

We recap Super Bowl weekend (2:32) and dive into Malcolm & Marie (17:45). We also discuss Mike Todd’s (33:08) unfortunate sermon delivery and get into new Music from Cardi B and Pooh Sheisty.

Salut. II Feb 04, 2021

The calendar turned 21 (2:07) so we drinkin!!! You know how we get down when it’s a new year, 2020 reviews and 2021 predictions (6:00). We’ve already lost an icon in 2021 and we pay our respects to Cicely Tyson (42:50). The conversation takes a wild turn thanks to some troubling allegations coming out of Atlanta (47:08), but not all challenges are bad, despite what some fu** boys may have to say (54:25).

1 Hunnid Dec 01, 2020

It’s been a long time but damn it, episode 100 of the Good Culture Podcast is here and we are officially in celebration mode! But just because we’re celebrating doesn’t necessarily mean the whole city should break out the champagne or the D’usse slushes for that matter (10:08). Twerk or not, everybody’s most confused mixtape artist dropped another tape and we still don’t know how to feel (28:08) , you tell us! In other news, one of our comedic legends is in a sticky contract but should our morality be challenged in the process (33:06)? Should Nate Robinson ever lace up another pair of gloves (38:54)? The Grammy’s brought they messy ass on back , but should we give AF as much as these artist do? (46:34). All this and more in “1 Hunnid”. PS: The Trap is back and we can’t wait. Pull up and celebrate! It’s champagne all week!

"Fuck you, Kenny" Nov 24, 2020

The trap super bowl exceeded the hype (14:35). That was a wonderful evening for the culture and Jeezy even gave us an album (21:20) to match his mink and moving words. The long awaited “debut” album of Megan Thee Stallion finally dropped. Was it bad news on Good News (28:51)? It damn sure was on Kev Hart’s new Netflix comedy special (35:36). He’s Kev Hart until the elitist private school jokes go away. And on this week of family and thanks, we’re thankful for healing between Will and Dark Skin Aunt Viv (43:54), No hateration, no colorization in this dancery.

Losin Weight: The Trap Super Bowl Nov 17, 2020

After a stressful week in Dallas (2:00), we needed this episode. As we prepare for the Trap Super Bowl (7:37), we discuss albums from 2Chainz (15:32) and Blac Youngsta (31:03) among others. We also got new work from Wale (37:52) who essentially made a song while playing his PS5 (41:19). Is a PS5 all a Black (48:38) man needs?

Bi Den Nov 10, 2020

Fuck Donald Trump and everybody who voted for him. Congratulations to Kamala Harris on an amazing accomplishment for Black women and Black people. Rest In Heaven, King Von.

BYE BYE BIRKIN Oct 27, 2020

#endSARS

Are you sure it’s a smash? (16:28)

Smash her feelings or your bank account? (33:54)

Who got more smash hits between Jeezy and TI? (45:37)

CUZ WHO??? Oct 20, 2020

This was some high quality podcasting, good people. We got grown men begging queens to buy them an ounce (9:17) and we lost Cube (21:00). Tough week for the kings. Speaking of ice, So Icy Gang Vol. 1 dropped (37:42) but the album you really need to tap into according to Kenny is Burden Of Proof (26:40).

I WANT MY DAMN RESPECT Oct 13, 2020

We byke. We better. Tap in.

"PROTEST" Jun 04, 2020

We’re not tired. We’re fed up.

Questions for the Culture May 27, 2020

We were all out trying to make the best of MDW 2020: Pandemic Edition, minding our business, being black and excellent. Wunna (11:29) was providing the vibes for the most normal feeling weekend in what felt like a year. Grills were smoking, red cups were flowing. We were on pace to have a beautfiul weekend closed out by 112 vs. static, oops, Jagged Edge (17:24). The good life. And then Lana Del Ray had a question for the culture (29:15). We never recovered. Doja KKKat went under a sheet instead of between them (35:58) and then a Karen (59:25) showed up and showed her rabid white ass. Who knew that Molly (1:06:40) and ole freak ass Andrew would be the peace our weekend needed? Spoiler alert!!! And then we had THE wildest close (1:24:48) to an episode in this podcast’s storied history.

Mask Off May 22, 2020

We last got in the studio to record on March 9th, 2020. We had no idea Big Rona was about to fuck up our respective worlds. Y’all knew about some big changes that were coming for the Good Culture family, but in the quarantine (2:11), we’ve done more than sit on our asses. Syd’s been on her skin care queen shit, but it’s still hard out here for a single baddie godmother swearing off pandemic peen (10:30).

Despite a virus kicking the rest of the world’s ass, it’s still not a bigger threat to black people than racism (21:55). But despite our losses, we’ve found plenty of content to enjoy (34:54). Is #blackAF really black AF (48:38)? Did T. Lee tend to his family the last five Sunday evenings (1:01:40)? Did any of us lose our best friends over some fuck shit (1:18:13)?

But still we rise!! You knew the culture would find a way to shine through all of this. The Verzuz (1:35:18) battles have been historically refreshing and fun and we are grateful for the great contributions we’ve celebrated. The toxic kings have also been on a run. This toxicity came in the form of songs (1:47:24). And last but not least we handed out quarantine superlatives (1:57:05). Be sure and cast your vote in the comments on IG.

And then we talked our shit. Fuck it mask off.

SOUTHERN COMFORT Mar 10, 2020

Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Uzi Vert and Jhene Aiko walk into a bar…..called Tate’s. They go into this bar on a Sunday at Noon. Megan feels right at home and even tells DJ Nitecrawler to play her new EP “Suga”. Lil Uzi does his best Young Thug impression and gets a couple tracks off of Eternal Atake put in the rotation. And Jhene is just a vibe wherever so she’s good too. Da Baby gets flewed in and he punches in as well, not into anyone’s face or anything so it’s all good. A white moderate got a little too comfortable and had to leave. Luckily she did, because the place was at capacity and she made just enough room for a special guest appearance from Drake and Lil Yachty.

The joke’s on you if you’re not at Tate’s Sunday.

“When To Say Queen” Mar 03, 2020

In this episode we discuss Lil Baby’s new album “My Turn” along with the Drake releases from the weekend. Meg got a little situation with her record label, but another queen is having to fight a battle as well. After we get through all that, the episode title will make sense.

CONTEXT Feb 25, 2020

Rollies over land, pussy ashes for sale, cancel all dog face bitches and selfish birds. We’ll put it all in context.

RIP Pop Smoke

HOLD UP THE LIGHT Feb 18, 2020

It’s still perfect attendance over here, bruh bruh. We in the studio discussing All Star weekend, the Wade family and TIP seeks marriage advice (?) from Boris Kodjoe.

FISTS Feb 11, 2020

When’s the last time you did something four times in a row? Now that your mind’s out of the gutter, come enjoy this podcast. We get into the Gayle King debacle, discuss new music and make plans for 2/14. It’s time to decide if you’re in a fourteen situation or you got a fifteen fling.

Duckets Feb 04, 2020

We weren’t quite gone off the rose’ daniels, but we were definitely preparing to leave. But a championship level podcast pushes through. We have an early contender for rap album of the year, one that should never have been released and some tough conversation about the business side of the industry. In the neighborhood talk portion of the podcast, it’s hot swirl summer with a chance for toxicity.

824 Jan 28, 2020

“Be sad. Be mad. Be frustrated. Scream. Cry. Sulk. When you wake up you will think it was just a nightmare only to realize it’s all too real. You will be angry and wish for the day back, the game back, THAT play back. But reality gives nothing back and nor should you.”

Salut. Jan 21, 2020

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and Happy ratchet flyer weekend good people!!! We been out here lifin’ but it’s time to feed the streets. This episode is mad wild, son (daughter is not the lingo here so miss us), so just prepare your ears. Who knew some resolutions, poor predictions and new predictions would get us to this ghetto ass place? Salut.

I'M UPSET Nov 12, 2019

We been busy. New nuptials, new balls, new babies. Life has been lifin’ but it was time to get back in the studio and do what we do best. In this episode we discuss the Facebook Chicken Sandwich and Kanye’s new album with the press run to match. TI is saying dumb shit again so he made the podcast too. Be sure to catch the end of this episode as major cloth talk happened in the shit talking portions of the episode.

WE'LL NAME THIS EPISODE LATER Oct 01, 2019

It's our 80th episode. We can sit on the mothers' pew at church now. But instead of giving out old, crusty and half melted pieces of strawberry candies, we got some good podcasting for y'all. DaBaby dropped his album, 69 probably ratted us out by the time this drops and Fantasia did Fantasia stuff. Let's pray that justice is served for Botham Jean and RIP to Andre Emmett.

I Wouldn't Know A Thing Sep 17, 2019

Some very good dialogue from the REVOLT Summit led to some good podcasting in Oak Cliff, TX. We shared our thoughts and opinions on some of the topics from that vivid panel discussion. Next we got into Kanye’s album announcement and how we feel about it. Is it a cult or nah? Not to be outdone, Meg sealed her hot girl summer with a big boss move so we stanned a young queen real quick. Fellas, face it they won. And lastly we discuss how life’s a trip but Lyfe’s just trippin. Freaky ass boy. I wouldn’t know a thing!

Byke to Bool Aug 26, 2019

August went ahead and lived up to expectations on us. We celebrating birthdays, the hot girls and chicken sandwiches. We beefin over black progression for whatever reason though. In the midst of it all, we got some new music, from trash to great or a flicker to five flames we got y’all covered. Now let’s get into this culture shit.

Culture Iz Here Jul 15, 2019

We finally got the long awaited answer many had pondered. Is there a white Twitter? It appears so. We discuss KRIT’s new album and Jermaine Dupri’s comments on the state of women’s rap. We not sure y’all gone like the rest. It’s love though!!!

HOT BOY SUMMER Jul 08, 2019

Fresh off a holiday weekend, the scoreboard indicates that it is indeed a #HotBoySummer. The queens, in need of a regroup, did get outstanding performances from LaLa and Halle Bailey. The FBMA prayed over Brother Melo and also gave praise to Lil Nas X. And we got new music from Dreamville and Chris Brown.

Big Baller Brand Jun 24, 2019

Everybody byke, everybody sober. After a brief status update on the hot girl summer, two faithful black men join the baddie godmother in a discussion on Gucci Mane, Trina, Lil Nas X, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. We also share our thoughts on the Lavar Ball ban and Dwayne Wade being a stand up father. We’ll see y’all this week.

ARE WE FAMILY? Jun 10, 2019

With Sydney in Atlanta doin’ hot girl shit, we bring the rest of the Good Culture editorial team into the studio to join the discussion. Lauren and Kam sit down with us as we chop it up on new music and new bullshit. With heightened levels of light skin, the discussion takes on a life of it’s own. It’s all love though, and it always should be.

GUMBO May 28, 2019

Bangers & Brunch is officially a DDD holiday and The Southern Classic was a major success, but it’s time to get back on wax. While we were handling business away from the studio, we got a lot of good new music. We touch on the albums we feel were standouts during this time period. Hit us up if we missed any. Also, we weigh in on Ayesha Curry’s comments from her feature on Red Table Talk. We also weigh in on the disappointing news surrounding The Chi star Jason Mitchell.

BANGERS & BRUNCH Apr 23, 2019

In this episode, we discuss some unfortunate community related news and the beef between TIP and Kodak. Once we leave the bullshit portion of the show, we get into the groundbreaking Homecoming documentary that the queen dropped off on us. Speaking of queens, one was recently take off the market unbeknownst to some folks. We then talk our shit about Bangers & Brunch, a history making event hosted by Good Culture, being May 4th at Wits End.

THE MARATHON CONTINUES Apr 08, 2019

We pay tribute to Neighborhood Nip. Rest in power, king.

WHEN SHIT HITS HOME Mar 25, 2019

After a few quiet weeks in the culture, the gang pulled up in strong fashion to discuss some bullshit that hit very close to the homefront. While it was bigotry that brought us to the studio cave this week, we got in our bag on some more pressing issues. Your childhood may or may not be threatened, your favorite R&B artist from north of border decided to “bridge the gap” and your favorite rapper from the Carolina’s just got a makeover, let him live!

SOBRIETY METER Mar 18, 2019

The culture has been lowkey too quiet lately but we had some shit to talk. Syd was fresh off St. Patrick’s festivities. This episode is the result of those two facts.

PODCAST OR GO TO WORK Mar 04, 2019

2 Chainz punched in with a masterful project, Rap or Go To The League, and we weigh in with our thoughts and opinions. We also share our takes on Solange’s When I Get Home. Offset didn’t quite get it right musically, but we definitely support your growth, king. Tell your story. #FreeTristanThompson!!!!

THE INTERVIEWS: DEVON FRANKLIN Feb 21, 2019

We welcome DeVon Franklin into the studio for a discussion about his path to ministry, his work in the entertainment business and his new book The Truth About Men.

DeVon Franklin is an award-winning film and TV producer, New York Times best-selling author, international speaker, and spiritual success coach. A recognized authority on spirituality, faith, and the entertainment business, DeVon is one of the youngest executives in Hollywood history. BeliefNet named DeVon one of the “Most Influential Christians Under 40.” Variety Magazine called him one of the “Top 10 Producers to Watch.” Ebony Magazine named him one of the “Top 100 Influential African-Americans in America.” He’s been interviewed by Oprah, Dr. Oz, Steve Harvey, Dr. Phil, CNN, and featured in numerous radio, print, and online appearances.

You can join in on the discussion tonight as Good Culture’s Kenny Reeves sits down with Devon and CNN’s Yodit Tewolde to dicuss The Truth About Men. The event will take place at Paul Quinn College and will begin promptly at 7 PM. Early arrival is strongly suggested.

A.A.R.P. Feb 18, 2019

In our 65th episode, we recap the Grammys and review the winners, snubs and flat out misses. We also discuss the week in culture from TI dissing Floyd to Nicki dismissing BET. Cardi and Bruno gave us another collab so T. Lee should be a lot of fun. Don’t let them take your integrity, my babies, it’s your favorite African-Americans recording podcasts.

21 QUESTION Feb 11, 2019

We try our damnedest to understand Savage the 21st’s legal troubles and weigh in with our opinions. White people are still cuttin’ up so our issues with Liam and Gucci get…taken…to wax. But not all hope is lost, Nicki rapped real bars, black banks step into the spotlight and black girls are creating dope art. Full disclosure this was recorded pre-Grammys.

US vs. them Feb 04, 2019

We cover a myriad of topics from stand up comedy to surprisingly good rap beefs. White folks gone white folks so we address some disturbing bullshit that didn’t have to be. But us gone us as well so we also discuss another cultural candidate and what that means moving forward. Kam also got his shots up lol.

UNUSUAL POLITICS Jan 28, 2019

We had a busy week in the culture loaded with music from some artists you already know and some you should get to know. We’re on bitchassness alert in LA and when you’re only 20, you can potentially ruin someone’s life all because you got drunk. But bullshit to the side, we try to gain some understanding of our potential Presidential candidate and how she may have a chance to affect positive change alongside Hov and Meek.

CULTUUUUURE?!?!!! Jan 21, 2019

The episode where we discuss Future’s album and his family issues?! The episode where we rationalize Rae Sremmurd’s break up?? The episode that’s named after Big Draco’s interview?!! Big booty women on boats and Big Mac’s??! CULTUUUURE?!?!!!

THE INTERVIEWS: PETE FREEDMAN Jan 17, 2019

We welcome Pete Freedman into the studio cave for an in-depth discussion on Dallas, his journey to founding Dallas’ most reputable online media alternative and some of the details of covering some of the city’s most shocking developments. Pete is the Co-Founder, President and Editor of CentralTrack.com, a Dallas onlne media alternative founded for the city’s millennial. Central Track prides itself on providing coverage tailored to serve the city’s underrepresented demographics and informing others about the lives and stories that matter to them. Super dope interview.

TRASHish Jan 14, 2019

So it turns out that there was some leftover trash from a particular R&B singer and new trash from some people connected to him. We even have to revisit the covering/lid war of 2018 because…..trash there too. We then reach the trash debatable portion of the episode which will probably resurface at some point. Not all things culture were negative this week, though, thus the name of this episode.

RESOLUTIONS Jan 07, 2019

We discuss our 2019 resolutions and make some 2019 predictions. As #KickbackOnWax proved, the energy you start the year with can cost you!! We also discuss the king of trash, R. Kelly.

THE INTERVIEWS: BAM'S VEGAN Dec 20, 2018

The Good Culture Podcast goes into the studio cave with Dallas’ most lit vegan chef Brandon Waller, owner of Bam’s Vegan. We discuss the whys, how to’s and rewards of his journey to being vegan and also his journey as a chef. He also shared the rewards of being able to use his platform to serve the culture and to enlighten people about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. But it’s the Good Culture podcast, so it wouldn’t be right if we didn’t touch the culture just a little bit. You can follow him at @bamsvegan on all platforms and we hope y’all will meet us at the Dallas Farmer’s Market this weekend (Sat 9A - 5P, Sun 10A - 5P) to try a few of these amazing recipes.

SHUT UP AND PREACH Dec 17, 2018

Controversy stepped tew this week in the culture, much of it surrounding Kulture’s parents. Now keep in mind this episode was recorded prior to Offset becoming Midset, but we give our thoughts on the Sets (the B’s??) and we wish them happiness and blessings moving forward. Kodak had his spat with Ebro which led to some scandal. He also dropped off his new project, Dying to Live, which we discuss in this episode. Then some random woman many people are unaware of told gospel legend Pastor John P. Kee to “…shut up and preach.” Y’all wilin, fam. Keep up the good work, Krit.

WE AIN'T SETUP LIKE THAT... Dec 10, 2018

We discuss Gucci Mane’s new album Evil Genius, as well as give our thoughts on the culturally relevant Grammy nominations. We also get into Cardi B’s divorce announcement and Kevin Hart’s roller coaster week. More details on #KOW are also made available so be sure to get all of that (II) !!!

WHAT'S FREE? Dec 03, 2018

Calico Syd was out living her best life this weekend (HBD, Sydney!!!) so we made the easy decision to bring in more family. Good Culture’s own Lauren Whiteman (@itsmewhiteman) joins the discussion with Kenny and T. Lee as we discuss Meek’s new project and other stories surrounding his album.

SMOKE BONE Nov 19, 2018

It was a pretty full week for the culture. We lost the beautiful Kim Porter, a pastor did or didn’t lose his mind and our own Kenny Reeves got to sit down with a cultural icon. We also got a lot of new music this weekend and learned about the extracurricular talents of another artist. We want to know how y’all feel about the topics too!! Join in on the conversation via our comments section or on social media!!

LOVE TALK Nov 12, 2018

It was a very exciting weekend for the Good Culture family and there was no better way to cap it off than welcoming in a very special guest.

FULL CIRCLE II Nov 05, 2018

So we’re back from homecoming break and back on our bullshit. This episode is pretty damn wild.

FIFTY Oct 22, 2018

Fifty is a pretty good thing no matter where you apply it. Buying a soda, field goals, age, money, podcasts. Yeah we said podcasts. You are now listening to a podcast that’s old enough to grill at the family reunion. We’re also old enough to leave Thanksgiving whenever we feel like it. In all seriousness, the GC+ Podcast is appreciative of how far we’ve come. We’re excited about where we are going to go. The good people have been family the whole time and we wouldn’t change that for nothin’. Now let’s get into this culture sh*t.

FULL CIRCLE Oct 15, 2018

On this episode we discuss a big weekend in music centered around the releases of Quavo, Ella Mai and Usher. We also get into a fool sitting in the lap of a bigger fool. Also, we got Episode 2 of “The Shop” featuring Drake. Keep positive energy, good people.

UNSCRIPTED Oct 08, 2018

This is what happens when one of us is drunk, one of us is on a high and one of us is trying to stay unwashed. And all of this is without a script.

A CASE OF THE EX Sep 17, 2018

Just when you think your past is over, here it comes stumbling back through the door. How do y’all deal with a case of the ex? Also, we got y’all covered on your fair hoppin’. There’s levels to this, know how to play the field. Don’t do Fletcher’s with a cotton candy date.

TALK SHIT, GET HIT Sep 10, 2018

Last week was mad real. We got cops killing people enjoying the privacy of their own home and the rap game lost a super talent. Cardi tried to harm Nicki, but walked away with a knot upside her own forehead. That's a lot to digest and we still got our jokes off with another set of rankings for y'all.

OH, SO Y'ALL BYKE BYKE??!! Sep 04, 2018

Yeah we byke byke. We choppin’ it up on white rapper complexes, the Dallas chicken trinity and Florida man (in a good way, surprisingly). We also get into culture tv and discuss what’s going on with the Issas and Ghosts of the world. Kanye is still Ye’in, Bron still goatin’ and we’re still the best start to your workweek.

Where The Fv*k Y’all Been, Fam? Aug 27, 2018

That’s the question we’ve been hearing this whole time. We explain our brief (by brief we mean at least it wasn’t a year) hiatus and get byke to this culture shit. We had a lot to unpack in this one because we missed being on wax, but the culture turnin’ up a little bit now and that’s what we’re here for. Nicki, Astroworld, Insecure, Power, interracial dating (insert flame emoji for this discussion), we really comin’ out hard for the good people. Two stripes!

FOREVER, I LOVE WAKANDA Feb 20, 2018

Black all weekend. From Thursday all the way through Obama's Day, it was a celebration of our heritage on a level rarely seen. From musical contributions to the big screen to the Staples Center, we trapped in Wakanda all weekend and the Good Culture podcast wraps it up in style.

ACCORDING TO QUINCY JONES Feb 12, 2018

According to the Good Culture Podcast crew, Quincy Jones' interview needed to be discussed on wax. What's true? What's false? Where are his meds? Is he a snitchin ass bitch? While we can't answer all of those, we do have answers for the following:

Is there Trappin in Wakanda? Yes

Is Bangers & Brunch making a big return to Dallas? Fuckin right.

P A U S E Feb 06, 2018

Our takes on the Grammys, Culture II, Timberlake's new album and Super Bowl LII. We're 10 days away from Black Panther, Good People!!!!

SCARY HOURS Jan 22, 2018

It was time. New host, same energy, more life. It was a weekend dedicated to those at the top of their craft displaying that they should never be doubted. If you doubted that we'd be back, you were wrong. If you doubted that the Baddie Godmother would expand her brand into podcasting, you were wrong. If you doubted that we'd talk our shit in this episode, you were wrong. It's scary hours for the haters. 2018 is going to be powerful.

THE RETURN OF 4 EVA Aug 28, 2017

Summer vacation was cool and all, but it's time we get back to this best shit.

DALLAS-N-D.C. Jun 26, 2017

Henny-N-Wingz. Bangers & Brunch, Cowboys and Redskins, Dallas and D. C. It all makes too much sense, and who better to connect with than the DJ that can call both places home. DJ Nitecrawler joins us to discuss his craft, his aspirations, his background and the movement that is Henny-N-Wingz. A little shit talk, a little motivation, a lotta moves. D.C. came to the city and showed major love. We gone return that favor. #SayLess.

COVFEFE Jun 05, 2017

We staying true to self in this episode. Music and anti f**k boys. We also talk our shit a little.

BACK FOR THE FIRST TIME May 22, 2017

It's almost June, Bron is dominating and DAMN. is still great. It's championship szn, good people, and we at Good Culture don't sit out this time of year. Kenny, T. Lee and Lauren are back to provide what your Mondays have been missing. If you snack on hot cheetos, we got you. If you enjoy being student debt free (courtesy of Nicki, not us, fam), we got you. If you like to write dope shit about dope shit, we got you. But if you wear romphims, we DO NOT have you, fam. We got something to say. Less.

BYKEING Apr 11, 2017

It's just us tree as we get byke in the swing of things. We discuss the new music we got over the weekend as well as the music we thought we were getting. We also stock up on a certain soda brand to ensure our safety from a certain dumbass "president". Be humble and #SayLess.

CHOPPIN' IT UP WITH JALEN MILLS Mar 20, 2017

It's no secret that sports are important to the guys of the Good Culture podcast. With Lauren enjoying the smells of traffic, 6th Street and weed in Austin, we had the luxury of welcoming our first pro athlete into the studio, Jalen Mills, Philadelphia Eagles cornerback. We were able to discuss the life of an NFL player, the challenges that come with the job both on and off the field and what bachelor life is like in Philly. #SayLess and press play, fam.

Do not wait to purchase your Bangers & Brunch tickets, presale tickets are nearly sold out!!!!

CHOPPIN' IT UP WITH DJ PHIFE Mar 13, 2017

If you're at a good party in Dallas, there's a good chance you're enjoying the talents of DJ Phife. We got a chance to have him in the studio with us to discuss his introduction to the craft and how he's grown to have his own hit single, "Turn It" feat. SVPA & Lil Ronny Motha F. With his wealth of knowledge on the music industry and the club/party scene the culture discussion was spirited and inspirational. #SayLess and press play, fam.

Do not wait to purchase your Bangers & Brunch tickets, presale tickets are nearly sold out!!!!

CHOPPIN' IT UP WITH COSIGN KG Mar 07, 2017

Cosign Magazine is a media brand dedicated to telling the stories of the people that drive the culture forward. We were lucky enough to get the brand's founder, KG, in the studio to discuss both his story and the story of Cosign. Of course we took a detour to discuss the beautiful Rosa Acosta and of course we had to discuss an eventful past few weeks in the culture. While we didn't get More Life from Drake, Nicki isn't necessarily dead. Also, Jay Z is enjoying more success and making more waves. Kanye, this is what happens when you avoid the sunken place. Say less and press play, fam.

Do not wait to purchase your Bangers & Brunch tickets as they are going fast and there will be limited sales at the door.

CHOPPIN' IT UP WITH CHAN-LO Feb 13, 2017

We’ve got the lovely Chan-Lo, Chief of Chic at cnkdaily.com (@CNKDaily), in the studio for Episode 31 and this recording was undoubtedly one of the most fun times we’ve been behind these microphones. From discussing her motivations as an influencer in shoe fashion and entrepreneurship to Valentine’s Day plans we touch all bases in getting to know the woman, the brand and the goals. But you know we gotta talk on the culture on the GC+ podcast and that’s when it got real. Kenny is still not safe. #SayLess family.

Thank you to all of our listeners who submitted questions and we definitely will be encouraging more listener questions going forward. Don’t forget to subscribe to the Good Culture youTube channel and turn on your notifications as new content will be rolling out soon!!!

THE 2 3 2 EPISODE FT. T.Y.E HARRIS Feb 06, 2017

Carter High is more than a football movie you have or haven't seen, it's a talent factory. We welcome in our sure to be a star fellow alumnus TYE Harris and discuss his career thus far and how he views the music industry.

ALLOW US TO REINTRODUCE OURSELVES Nov 07, 2016

An influential Southern rapper once said, "If you make it to see 25 ni**a you a OG." So did you really think we were gonna stop at 24? We couldn't let you head into Election Day without one more middle finger to trump or let Pengy Wap go unsupported in these trying times. We couldn't let the culture give us so much to be thankful for and not give our take.The GC+ Podcast is still a ting ladies and gentlemen. The word of the day is byke.

Father's Day Weekend. Juneteenth. Game 7. Those things would have been enough for us to do a damn GOOD episode. But we strive for excellence so we had the homie DJ View in the studio with us.

GOOD CULTURE: SUMMER SIXTEEN - EP. 14 May 17, 2016

It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you. But unlike Rakim, Dallas has given us plenty of dope in the time we've been away. The culture is moving forward in the city.

Dallas is looking for revenge, all summer sixteen.

The newly married Mrs. Harrison gives us financial tips for real world problems to help us reach real world success. This isn't about interest rates and inflation. It's about affording dates and life after graduation. It was real, it was fun and it's important. But you know it's not Good Culture if we don't talk the culture.

We're proud to bring on our third host Lauren aka @theellemac, as she adds a dope, unfiltered and energetic perspective. We took this episode as an opportunity to kick back and chop it up. How'd we feel about Untitled Unmastered? How big of a joke is Trump? Are people still listening to TLOP? Did Chris Rock handle the stage right?
