Show notes

The show kicked off with a fiery discussion about a Florida teacher under fire after leading a “happy birthday” rendition for a Black student—only to switch the lyrics mid-song to “You live in the zoo… you look like a monkey… you smell like one too.” The backlash was swift, and the Polk County school district launched an investigation into the incident.

FULL EP | Donald Trump Says There are Two N-Words You Cannot Use; Is New Military Facial Hair Rule Racist; Talkin’ All That Jazz with Chef JJ; and MORE Oct 02, 2025

Show notes

The D.L. Hughley Show kicked off with sharp commentary on Donald Trump’s bizarre claim that there are “two N-words you can’t say”, sparking outrage and ridicule as DL and the crew broke down the recklessness of his language and the dangerous normalization of rhetoric rooted in division. From there, the team tackled an intense Question of the Day about the military’s new shaving policy targeting soldiers with pseudofolliculitis barbae (razor bumps). Callers, many of them veterans, weighed in passionately, arguing the rule disproportionately harms Black servicemen and could be a veiled attempt to exclude them from service.

The conversation lightened up when Chef JJ Johnson joined to discuss his new book The Simple Art of Rice, sharing personal stories of how rice connects cultures worldwide and offering practical tips for perfecting the staple at home.
