For our final episode of the season, we’re closing things out with a powerful and enlightening conversation. Carl sits down with special guest Raven Ekundayo—Reiki healer, shadow work therapist, and host of a healing-centered podcast—to explore the deep work of spiritual healing and emotional self-discovery. From understanding energy work to embracing the parts of ourselves we often avoid, Raven brings insight and clarity to the healing journey.

Of course, we couldn’t end the season without diving into some pop culture tea! We unpack the latest around Kanye West’s controversial era and reflect on Beyoncé’s ever-evolving legacy, mixing mindfulness with media in the way only The Recap can.

It’s real, raw, and a finale you don’t want to miss.

This week on The Recap, we’re diving deep into the sheets—safely, of course. From PrEP to positions, condoms to kinks, we’re talking all things sex, safety, and the wild stories in between. Whether you’re team top, bottom, verse, side or “it depends on the vibe,” we’ve got you covered (literally).

Let’s be real: the only thing hotter than good sex is responsible sex. So tune in and learn how to protect your peace and your privates. Because if you stay ready, baby ..... you ain’t gotta PrEP

In this episode of The Recap, we’re getting real about Black representation in gay films and media. From the groundbreaking beauty of Moonlight and Pariah to the cultural impact of Noah’s Arc, we’re talking about the wins, the gaps, and why authentic storytelling still matters.

Plus, we’re unpacking the viral moment with Ego Nwodim on SNL, throwing side-eye at the tariff drama between the U.S. and China, and crowning our Stupid Heaux of the Day—a track star with a baton and no chill.

We also highlight Vitamin Energy as our episode sponsor (get that 20% off with code iCombatCarl), and as always, we end with a little love and a reminder to stay safe out here.

Tune in, turn up the volume, and let’s get into it. 🎙️✨
