Tonight on Black Out, we’re tackling the conversations that hit your money, relationships, and everyday life. Is the economy worse than we’re being told? Is “rich people don’t trade time for money” a lie? And what have we learned from sitting down with billionaires? We also dive into the public school debate surrounding Nikole Hannah-Jones and ask: If you had one term as President and could fix ONE issue in America, what would it be? Plus, with the cost of living out of control, why do millions of people still choose to live in New York? Then we get into relationships and culture: Should you choose a partner based on love or rational thinking? We also discuss Nolan Wells, the situation involving Rich Homie Quan’s child’s mother, and America’s growing obsession with outer space.

The conversation continues with a breakdown of PowerNomics, relationships and how much of your past should be shared with a partner, who deserves an invitation when you level up, and what continues to drive successful people after they’ve already made money. We also discuss John Morgan’s perspective on the number needed to truly be financially free. Finally, we get into men publicly speaking about other men when women are involved, modern etiquette, the return of Ye, and what financial freedom actually looks like.

We take a deeper look at business, culture, and ownership, including Pat McAfee’s reported $60 million-per-year negotiations with ESPN and what it will take for Black creators to secure deals at that level. We also discuss the opening of Dr. Umar’s school, the ongoing Griselda drama involving Westside Gunn, Benny, and Conway, and whether being more social is truly one of the keys to success in life and business. The conversation also gets personal as we discuss men’s mental health and whether people recognize when men are struggling. We share thoughts on Apple’s new privacy update, the rising cost of attending the NBA Finals, the recent EYL insurance conversation, the nicest things women have done for us, what we’d like to see at Invest Fest this year, and Trump’s statement that the war with Iran is over.
