The crew reflects on the terrifying Six Flags roller coaster death and why getting older changes how you feel about thrill rides. Skip gives D.L. his flowers for the generosity, and the show teases tomorrow's guest: musical artist Robert Glasper and the Blue Note venue in LA.

DLHS HOUR 3 | F You, D.L.

In What You Need to Know, Sybil Wilkes covers Obama's endorsement of Juliana Stratton for Senate, Trump attacking Ilhan Omar at an Ohio rally, Six Flags shutting down roller coasters after a fatal fall, and the University of Maryland suspending its tennis program over KKK hood graphics.

DLHS HOUR 2 | Weird or Good Parenting? The Streaming Hack Warrior + MOREOct 14, 2026 · 12 minThe debate rages on: is a father showering with his nine-year-old daughter good parenting or a red flag? Sanders and Skip weigh in, and callers do not hold back—one even calls the man a "pervert" while another invokes Trump's own inappropriate comments about his daughter. D.L. draws the line between affection and boundary violations, and the consensus is clear: nine is too old. Then the one and only Alibo, the Streaming Hack Warrior, takes over with a hilarious review of Survivor's Remorse, starring Jessie T. Usher, Mike Epps, and Tichina Arnold—LeBron James' executive-produced show that's like Entourage with a conscience and a church scene. Alibo also pitches his new venture, Bootleg Betting—no refs, just witnesses. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
DLHS HOUR 1 | Trump's Clueless Crowd & A Father Crossing the LineOct 14, 2026 · 14 minOctober means Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and D.L. kicks things off with birthday shoutouts to AOC, Paul Pierce, Jerry Jones, Tisha Campbell-Martin, and more—including a wild story about Brian Dawkins' image being used in a Trump ad. Christa Pike, a death row survivor who was nearly executed, is back in the headlines, and D.L. has plenty to say about that. Trump tells Tennessee supporters he could "say the stupidest things" and they'd still clap—and they proved him right. An Uber driver kicks out a passenger who refused to confirm her identity, sparking a heated debate. In the GED Section, D.L. demands to know why the Trump administration investigates everyone except the mysterious deaths of six Black people found drowned and hanging this year.

Full EP | Justice Department Investigate Networks Not Covering Trump; One Voyage Jeopardy with Jamal Kingsley; Comedian and Actor Cedric the Entertainer Joins DLHS Crew; Federal Agents Search Rep. Ilhan Omar’s DC HomeOct 13, 2026 · 30 minD.L. Hughley and the crew unpack the Justice Department’s antitrust investigation into ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News and NBC after the networks temporarily suspended shared White House pool coverage when CNN, MS NOW and Politico were barred from the complex; a federal judge later restored the outlets’ access, and press-freedom advocates warned the probe could chill independent reporting. The conversation also turns to the court-authorized search of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Washington-area home by Homeland Security Investigations as part of an immigration-related criminal inquiry; Omar has not been charged and says the action is political intimidation, while federal officials say the investigation is ongoing. The mood lightens when Jamal Kingsley hosts One Voyage Jeopardy, challenging contestants to identify songs by cruise performers including Cupid, Lakeside and T.I.; the 2026 One Voyage lineup also features D.L. Hughley, Keith Sweat, Wyclef Jean, Doug E. Fresh, Erica Campbell and Cedric the Entertainer aboard Virgin Voyages’ Resilient Lady. Cedric then joins the crew for a lively round of questions about old-school essentials, luxury cigars, his friendly hat rivalry with D.L. and the honorary doctorate tied to his family’s Lincoln University legacy—one of two honorary degrees on his résumé, alongside the Doctorate of Fine Arts his alma mater Southeast Missouri State University awarded him in 2025. Plus, the show serves up its signature wordplay, sharp commentary and plenty of laughs along the way.

Full EP | Trump Promises Payment to Voters Ahead of Midterm; Panama Jailing Mothers Who Lie About Paternity; Government Evaluating FBI Investigation in Nolan Wells Case; Five Things You Need to Know about Breast CancerOct 9, 2026 · 38 minMoney, justice, unanswered questions, and lifesaving health information collide as D.L. Hughley and the crew tackle a packed lineup with sharp commentary and spirited debate. They question the timing of President Donald Trump’s pre-midterm promises, including a one-time $90 payment for more than 20 million eligible Medicare Part B enrollees, $500 Affordable Care Act rebates for roughly one million people, and a proposed $5,000 check for every American adult if Republicans retain Congress—a pledge that would require congressional approval and could cost more than $1 trillion. The Question of the Day turns to Panama’s new paternity-fraud law, which punishes deliberate deception with two to five years in prison and financial penalties, requires DNA testing in disputed cases, ends future legal obligations when fraud is proven, and preserves a child’s right to establish biological parentage; hosts and callers debate whether the United States should adopt similar consequences or instead prioritize immediate paternity testing and restitution. The show also follows renewed calls for federal scrutiny in the death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells, whose body was recovered on Horn Island two days after a Fourth of July boating trip. A Mississippi grand jury declined to bring charges and investigators said the evidence did not indicate foul play, but the state and independent autopsies listed the cause and manner of death as undetermined, leaving Wells’s family pressing for answers as President Trump said he was considering asking the FBI to investigate. Jasmine Sanders closes with five essential breast-cancer facts: mammograms can find cancer before symptoms appear, a biopsy is needed for a definitive diagnosis, cancers may be invasive or noninvasive, surgery commonly involves either lumpectomy or mastectomy, and factors such as age, family history, and breast density can affect risk. Current guidance recommends mammograms every two years for women ages 40 to 74 at average risk, while those with dense breasts should discuss their personal risk and possible additional screening with a clinician.

Full EP | Opal Lee Turns 100; The Heavy-Makeup Debate; Wendy Raquel Robinson Gets Candid; eBay’s Wildest Celebrity SalesOct 8, 2026 · 40 minHistory, beauty, Hollywood, and bizarre celebrity collectibles collide in an episode packed with sharp opinions and big laughs. D.L. Hughley and the crew celebrate Dr. Opal Lee’s 100th birthday as the “Grandmother of Juneteenth” helps launch construction of Fort Worth’s 50,000-square-foot National Juneteenth Museum, projected to open in 2029; her decades of advocacy helped make Juneteenth a federal holiday in 2021. The Question of the Day asks why heavy makeup remains popular when many men say they prefer a lighter look, prompting callers to debate confidence, acne coverage, social-media filters, reality-TV beauty standards, creativity, competition, and self-expression. Research reflects that complexity: women report using cosmetics for impression management, enhancement and confidence, fun and well-being, creativity, and identity—not simply to attract a partner. Actress Wendy Raquel Robinson joins the crew for a hilarious, revealing conversation about being expelled from Hollywood High, the legendary Los Angeles school coffee cake, her Howard University experience, and the life-changing value of HBCUs. Beyond her celebrated roles as Regina Grier on The Steve Harvey Show and Tasha Mack on The Game, Robinson co-founded Amazing Grace Conservatory, which provides performing and digital arts training to underserved young people and has grown from 75 students to serving more than 500 annually. Queen Indy B, who is in for Jasmine Sanders, closes with five unbelievable items purchased on eBay, including Justin Bieber’s hair clippings, Justin Timberlake’s half-eaten French toast, Pharrell’s famous Grammy hat, William Shatner’s kidney stone, and an alleged Britney Spears pregnancy test—proof that celebrity fame can turn almost anything into a collectible; Bieber’s hair brought $40,668 for charity, Timberlake’s leftovers sold for $1,025, and Shatner’s kidney stone raised $25,000.

Full EP | Actor Da’Vinchi Calls Black Americans Lazy and to Forget Slavery; Should Grown Children Pay Rent at Parent’s Home; Should Grown Children Pay Rent at Parent’s Home; John Legend Starts Initiative to Pay College Students Rent; Weird Things Women Do According to Men; and MoreOct 7, 2026 · 45 minFrom a viral diaspora debate to a family standoff over rent, this episode brings the heat, the heart, and the everyday habits that keep relationships interesting. D.L. Hughley and the crew respond to actor Da’Vinchi’s appearance on Cam Newton’s Funky Friday, where he criticized Americans as overly dependent and “incompetent” while discussing work ethic, parenting, and why overseas actors land U.S. roles; Newton pushed back that convenience and efficiency are not the same as laziness, and Da’Vinchi later acknowledged that his sweeping statement should have been more specific. The show rejects the broader framing—especially any suggestion that Black Americans should simply move past slavery—arguing that the institution’s legacy and the systems built from it still shape American life. The Question of the Day shifts the conversation to whether a 29-year-old son and his partner should contribute $600 a month after moving into his parents’ home to escape a $3,700 rent bill, with the hosts and callers largely agreeing that grown adults should help cover food and utilities—and ideally use the reduced cost to save toward independence; the question lands at a time when about 20% of Americans ages 25 to 34 live with their parents, with high housing costs a major driver. The crew also salutes John Legend for partnering with Bilt and Scholarship America to provide 50 eligible off-campus students at Morehouse College, Central State University, Wilberforce University, and his alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania, with one-time, need-based $850 housing awards—an effort inspired by his own experience working multiple jobs to pay rent in college. Jasmine Sanders closes with a playful list of habits men find puzzling, from buying painful shoes and rejecting every restaurant suggestion to guarding decorative soap and claiming not to want fries before eating someone else’s.

Full EP | 1200 Sexual Assaults at Cornell from 2018-2024; Jamal Kingsley on One Voyage Jeopardy; Actor and Comedian Niecy Nash Joins DLHS Crew; Woman Cancels Date Because of Man’s Attire; and MoreOct 6, 2026 · 42 minFrom a campus accountability crisis to a first-date fashion emergency, D.L. Hughley and the crew bring sharp commentary, candid conversation, and plenty of laughs. D.L. responds to reporting that Cornell’s Title IX office received more than 1,200 reports involving sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking from 2018 through 2024; disciplinary charges were filed in 162 cases, at least one person was found responsible in 51, 14 resulted in suspension, and only seven ended in expulsion or dismissal. The troubling numbers fuel his wider critique of wealth, influence, and institutions that fail to hold powerful people accountable. The mood lightens when Jamal Kingsley hosts One Voyage Jeopardy, challenging contestants to identify lyrics by cruise performers including E.U., Da Brat, and Dave Hollister; the 25th-anniversary One Voyage sailing is billed as six nights of music, culture, and community in support of HBCU scholarships and resources. Actor and comedian Niecy Nash then joins the show to discuss refusing stereotypical “sassy Black” roles, proving her dramatic range on HBO’s Getting On, and paying her success forward by helping others find work. The episode wraps with a viral dating debate after TikToker Wunderr says a woman canceled their first date just 15 minutes before pickup when she saw his glittering rhinestone shirt, pants, and shoes—an outfit that had the crew and the internet choosing sides over personal style, compatibility, and first impressions.

Full EP | Department of Education Resends Biden-Era Title IX; Two Execution Attempts and Tennessee Still Alive; Cornell University Conducting Investigation for 2024 Sexual Assault Case; One Voyage Jeopardy with Jamal Kingsley; and MoreOct 2, 2026 · 43 minOne show, four conversations, and absolutely no shortage of controversy—D.L. Hughley and the crew bring the heat with politics, justice, campus accountability, and plenty of laughs. The team examines the Education Department’s formal repeal of the Biden-era Title IX rule and restoration of the 2020 regulations, a move the administration frames as protecting women’s athletics while critics warn it could weaken safeguards for transgender students and survivors of sexual violence. The debate intensifies around Christa Pike, who remained alive after Tennessee administered two doses of pentobarbital during a failed execution; callers weigh her brutal crime and traumatic childhood against questions of cruel punishment, second chances, and whether the state should try again. The conversation turns to accountability at Cornell University, which agreed to an outside review of its handling of allegations that a former student was drugged and sexually assaulted by multiple fraternity members in 2024; the criminal investigation has also been reopened, with prosecutors reviewing whether evidence should go before a grand jury, and the allegations remain unproven in court. D.L. uses the case to challenge the selective way society talks about crime and the protection too often afforded to accused men on college campuses. Then Jamal Kingsley lightens the mood with One Voyage Jeopardy, testing contestants on lyrics from E.U., Da Brat, and Dave Hollister while building excitement for the upcoming six-day One Voyage cruise aboard Resilient Lady, featuring a packed lineup of music, comedy, food, and live experiences.
