How does it feel when you’re finally not just seen—but chosen?
In Episode 5 of
Dysfunctional Function, Rob reflects on being named one of the New Pittsburgh Courier’s Men of Excellence, Class of 2026, and what that recognition forced him to see in himself.This isn’t just a story about an award. It’s a conversation about Black excellence, legacy, masculinity, identity, belonging, transformation, and yes… a little politicking along the way.
From neon-green glasses and unapologetic self-expression to a room filled with vastly different versions of Black manhood, Rob asks a bigger question: Who gets to define what a “man of excellence” looks like?
What does Black masculinity look like when it isn’t limited to one personality, one profession, one presentation, one belief system, or one way of moving through the world?
And what happens when you’ve spent years being seen but not chosen—and suddenly somebody looks at the portfolio of your life and says:
“Yeah. Him.”
Because sometimes recognition doesn’t make you worthy.
It just makes you stop long enough to realize you already were.
