  • Ep. 35 | Public Outrage: Don Lemon, Kim Kardashian & a Whyte Halftime Show
    2025/10/28
    In this episode of Selective Ignorance, host Mandii B is joined by super producer A-King and journalist Jayson Rodriguez for a vibrant, unfiltered conversation that spans pop culture, politics, personal growth, and the beauty of life’s everyday moments. The episode opens with an introduction and book promotion [00:00], setting the tone for a thought-provoking and entertaining discussion that seamlessly blends humor, insight, and cultural critique. The hosts kick off with current events and cultural commentary [00:51], diving into the latest headlines shaping society — from celebrity antics to political hot takes. Their witty banter and sharp analysis keep the energy high as they connect seemingly small pop culture moments to larger societal trends. The conversation naturally transitions into personal reflections and life’s joys [02:52], where Mandii, A-King, and Jayson share intimate stories about finding gratitude and balance amidst chaos. They remind listeners of the value in celebrating the simple things — from shared laughter to moments of stillness — that often get lost in the pursuit of success. The dialogue deepens as they examine the concept of the “ride or die” mentality in relationships [05:57], unpacking how loyalty, love, and sacrifice are often romanticized at the expense of self-worth. Through personal anecdotes and cultural references, the trio explores how this mentality impacts both men and women, ultimately asking whether unconditional loyalty still has a place in modern relationships. Moving into political commentary and social issues [12:13], the hosts tackle current events with their trademark candor, discussing how systemic challenges and shifting political landscapes influence everyday people. They then speculate on upcoming events and performances [23:51], weighing in on what fans can expect from major stages like award shows and festivals while reflecting on how performance culture mirrors broader societal values. The conversation takes a sharp turn as they explore the price of fame and acceptance [35:52], dissecting how public figures often struggle with maintaining authenticity while catering to fan expectations. This leads into a fiery discussion on Don Lemon’s controversial statements [36:51], where the trio breaks down his remarks on race and gun ownership, examining how media narratives continue to shape — and sometimes distort — conversations about identity and justice. From there, the group delves into the nuances of race and identity [40:08], tracing how personal background, privilege, and perception intersect in defining who we are. They expand this reflection with a conversation on immigration and belonging [43:31], acknowledging the shared struggles and cultural hybridity that form the American experience. As they explore the melting pot of American history [45:25], the hosts challenge listeners to consider how the nation’s diversity can both unite and divide, depending on perspective and power dynamics. Shifting to a more personal lens, Mandii and her co-hosts unpack the politics of gift giving and relationships [48:35], discussing how material gestures often serve as reflections of love, validation, or obligation. The episode culminates in an honest and heartfelt discussion about navigating family dynamics and acceptance [01:03:25], where the hosts address the emotional complexities of being seen and understood — especially in families confronting issues of identity, tradition, and change. Throughout the episode, Mandii B, A-King, and Jayson Rodriguez offer a rare balance of humor, honesty, and intellect, creating a conversation that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. Their insights invite listeners to examine their own relationships, beliefs, and roles in shaping a more open, compassionate society. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Podcast Wars & Burnt Bridges feat. Barry Neal | Bonus Episode
    2025/10/24

    In this episode of Selective Ignorance, host Mandii B sits down with culture critic Barry Neal for a dynamic, unfiltered conversation that dives deep into the intersections of culture, controversy, and community. The episode opens with an introduction and guest welcome [00:00], setting the tone for a thought-provoking discussion that blends humor, honesty, and critical insight into the realities of modern media and identity.

    The conversation kicks off with a cultural commentary on the Joe Budden podcast incident involving Marc Lamont Hill [01:28], where Mandii and Barry unpack the viral controversy and what it reveals about accountability, ego, and the performative nature of online discourse. They examine how the situation underscores deeper tensions within the Black podcasting space, where authenticity often collides with influence and public perception.

    From there, the dialogue explores the role of conflict in podcasting [15:07], dissecting how debates, disagreements, and drama drive engagement but can also distort meaningful dialogue. Mandii and Barry reflect on the fine line between using controversy as content and maintaining integrity as creators in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

    The episode transitions into a sharp examination of classism and intellectualism within Black culture [20:22], as the hosts question who gets to represent the community in public spaces. They discuss the tension between academic voices and street perspectives, emphasizing the need for both authenticity and nuance in shaping cultural narratives. This leads naturally into a broader discussion on the complexity of Black identity and representation [38:56], where Mandii and Barry reflect on the pressures of visibility, code-switching, and how mainstream success can sometimes come at the cost of cultural authenticity.

    As the conversation shifts gears, they spotlight the rise of Kevin McCall [41:18], exploring his talent, public struggles, and complicated journey in the music industry. This segues into a detailed breakdown of Chris Brown’s enduring impact and performance legacy [50:34], as the hosts analyze how fame, redemption, and public opinion intertwine in the lives of artists who’ve faced both acclaim and controversy.

    In one of the most introspective portions of the episode, Mandii and Barry address burnt bridges and unforgivable actions [01:01:52], discussing how personal accountability and growth play out in both public and private life. The conversation deepens as they explore navigating relationships and choices [01:12:10], tackling sensitive topics like forgiveness, boundaries, and the emotional toll of living under constant scrutiny.

    The episode concludes with closing thoughts and a look ahead to future conversations [01:18:09], where Mandii and Barry encourage listeners to embrace nuance, challenge assumptions, and remain open to growth — even when faced with uncomfortable truths.

    This installment of Selective Ignorance masterfully balances cultural critique with personal reflection, offering listeners a space to think critically about identity, fame, and integrity in today’s hyper-connected world.
