The Roast of Killer Mike | Conversate with Killer Mike ep. 49

What happens when Killer Mike reads the comments? This week, Killer Mike, Bear, Moetown Lee, and producer Ashley Weaver sit down with no guest and turn the spotlight on the audience. From accusations of hypocrisy and debates over "no snitching" to politics, religion, relationships, Atlanta culture, and conspiracy theories, nothing is off limits. Mike responds directly to critics, breaks down his views on leadership and accountability, and shares the lessons that shaped him from childhood to entrepreneurship. The conversation takes unexpected turns through cults, faith, dating, ambition, alien theories, community building, and the difference between social media perception and real world impact. The crew also celebrates nearly a year of Conversate, reflects on the show's growth, and closes with a passionate defense of Atlanta icon Jermaine Dupri and the people who helped build the city's cultural legacy. This is Conversate at its most raw, unfiltered, and hilarious. The comments came for Killer Mike. He had something to say back.

Future of Georgia Is Being Decided Right Now ft. Jason Esteves | Conversate with Killer Mike ep. 47

Killer Mike, Bear, and Moetown Lee welcome former Georgia State Senator and gubernatorial candidate Jason Esteves for a conversation about politics, power, and the future of Georgia. Mike opens the episode by addressing criticism surrounding his political involvement and explains why he believes real change happens through local organizing, community engagement, and showing up beyond social media. The crew discusses voting, political accountability, the role of public figures in civic life, and why so many working class Americans feel disconnected from the political process. Jason reflects on his campaign for governor, his decision to unite behind Keisha Lance Bottoms after the Democratic primary, and the policies he believes can move Georgia forward. Together, they tackle healthcare access, public education, economic inequality, tax fairness, small business growth, and the challenges facing both urban and rural communities across the state. The conversation also explores what it will take to rebuild trust in government and why working people, regardless of race or background, have more in common than politicians often admit. From healthcare hubs and trade programs to voting rights and economic opportunity, this episode is a thoughtful discussion about leadership, service, and building a Georgia that works for everyone.

“The Empty Cup,” Always the Student ft. Courtney "Bear" Sills | Conversate with Killer Mike ep. 45

In this episode of Conversate with Killer Mike, Cutmaster Swiff, and Ashley sit down with Bear, a behind the scenes force who helped shape Atlanta’s music industry from the ground up. From cutting hair in local barbershops to working alongside icons like OutKast, Bad Boy, and some of the biggest names in hip hop, Bear’s story is a masterclass in relationships, timing, and staying solid in a business that rarely rewards it. Bear breaks down how the barbershop became a gateway into the industry, why integrity and character matter more than talent, and what it really took to build artists like 112 from the ground up. The conversation moves through Atlanta’s rise, the reality of New York’s grind, and the lessons learned from being in rooms with legends like Biggie, Puff, and Eminem. They also get personal, diving into fatherhood, discipline, martial arts, and how Bear Strong Inc. is giving back to the next generation through health, wellness, and community work. This is a conversation about legacy, humility, and what it means to play your role at the highest level without needing the spotlight.
