"Where the Black Fathers At?" They're Winning Championships

"Where the Black Fathers At?" They're Winning Championships

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley spends Father's Day making the case nobody wants to hear: every time somebody asks "where are the Black fathers at," the answer is Jalen Brunson winning a Knicks championship with his own father right beside him. From Jeff Metcalf's comments about Black dads to Boomer Esiason and the "respect the office" crowd, the Karmelo Anthony verdict and what "stand your ground" was really built for, a one-year-old shot by police in Mississippi over diapers, ICE policing the World Cup, Tony Hinchcliffe, Stephen Miller, and an honest conversation about Black and Jewish solidarity — DL, Jasmine, and Alex break it all down. Then DL gets to the throughline: America started a war with Iran, walked away holding the bill while everybody else took the money, and still found time to remind us whose humanity counts. Same question every time — why couldn't you just mind your business?

DL Hughley GOES OFF on Spencer Pratt, Bill Maher & Stephen A. Smith

DL Hughley is back, and this week the Temu Trump came for LA — and LA said no. DL breaks down Karen Bass's primary win over Spencer Pratt, why Los Angeles was never going to elect a mayor named Spencer, and how a city bigger than 40 states became the target of a DOJ investigation for counting too slow. Plus: the homelessness money nobody can find, who's really stealing it (hint: it ain't poor people), and why rich people don't want to solve homelessness — they just don't want to see it. Then DL torches Bill Maher for being the only comedian thirsty enough to take a Mark Twain Award from a man who got Colbert canceled, goes in on Stephen A. Smith for speaking up for the Knicks but not the people, and asks what context Nick Cannon could possibly be missing. And in the wake of the Karmelo Anthony verdict, DL lays out what stand your ground really means — and who it was built for.

They Held a Moment of Silence for Derek Chauvin?!

DL's back in New York at Gotham Podcast Studio — a wall of liquor, a Knicks/Spurs/Giants debate nobody asked for, an Odell Beckham story that ended the second money came up, and Alex catching strays over a dude-wipe ad. Plus a shout-out to Jay-Z for still being slick, still relevant, and still holding onto all that hair. Then the heavier stuff: one last word on the Kevin Hart roast — Gary Owen, Joe Rogan, the whole Rogan tree — set against the Minnesota GOP's moment of silence for Derek Chauvin and what George Floyd still means. From there, Vivek Ramaswamy's Ohio run, the Kaepernick-vs.-Jackson-Dart "political" double standard, Pete Hegseth and "white affirmative action" running the Iran war, Ken Paxton vs. Talarico in Texas, Karen Bass and the LA mayor's race, and Trump's 250-year party that no act will touch — except Vanilla Ice, Flo Rida, and a booking agent named Epstein.

Kevin Hart Protected Everyone Except His Own People

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley pours one out for Rob Base before getting into the most contentious writers' room the show has ever had. Two weeks in, the panel still can't let go of the Kevin Hart Roast, and DL stakes out the unpopular ground: a comedian should never apologize for a joke, let alone one he didn't tell. But Jasmine, Austin, and Alex aren't having it — if Hart cut 18 jokes to protect everyone from Melania to the military to Tony Hinchcliffe, why was George Floyd the one line he wouldn't draw? Tom Brady stopped his own roast. Hart had the power and chose the numbers. From there, DL breaks down Cheyenne Bryant and why a Black woman with a PhD still gets asked for her credentials the way Tucker Carlson asked Ketanji Brown Jackson for her SAT scores. Then the throughline lands: the LA mayor's race pitting Karen Bass against a game show host, why homelessness lives wherever the billionaires do, and why this administration's one real accomplishment is showing exactly how much this country will tolerate — if you're white. A nigga can't even wear a tan suit. DL says it plain: infamy is better than fame, and somebody always cashes the check.

Take My Name Out Your Mouth, Fat Ass' — DL Hughley ENDS Big Jay Oakerson

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley pays tribute to Barney Frank — the first openly gay congressman, a Freedom Summer volunteer, and a civil rights champion whose passing marks the end of an era — before turning to the death of Mark Fuhrman and what his career revealed about the LAPD, the most deadly police department in the country. From a sheriff's department gang that recruits from the South to the Rampart Division's reign of corruption, DL connects Fuhrman's legacy to a city built on quiet brutality, and asks why a president who can't feign empathy went silent after the San Diego mosque shooting. The conversation then turns to the Kevin Hart Roast, Tony Hinchcliffe's recycled George Floyd joke, and Big Jay Oakerson's decision to take a swing at DL — a swing DL returns with interest. From there, DL breaks down why five-star Black athletes need to stop running to SEC schools that disenfranchise their families on Monday and cheer for them on Saturday, why NIL money should travel where Black communities are respected, and why the Trump administration's reparations fund for J6 defendants has accidentally opened the door for the strongest restorative justice case Black America has ever had. Eminent domain, Bruce's Beach, Bob Jones, Seneca Village, and a mountain in Calabasas that used to have a name no one should ever say out loud — DL lays out the receipts and says it plain: get your money, man. Go get it.
