Ep.62 "All cults aside"

Ep.66 "Be offended, I don't care"

This week on To You & Yours, we’re covering everything from hardwood history to cultural hysteria to a story that should have way more people talking. First, we break down the NBA Finals: Spurs vs. Knicks. The Knicks are finally on the biggest stage, and New York is standing at the edge of a moment fans have been waiting decades for. But standing across from them is a dangerous young Spurs team with championship DNA, star power, and nothing to lose. We give our full prediction and ask the real question: is this the Knicks’ year, or does San Antonio crash the party? Then we get into the movie sweeping the country: Obsession. Everybody’s talking about it, everybody’s posting about it, but is the hype actually real? We discuss whether the film lives up to the moment or if this is just another case of social media turning something into a phenomenon before people have even processed it. Lastly, we take a serious turn with the Henry Nowak story; a case filled with disturbing questions about police neglect, selective outrage, and how quickly narratives can be built before facts are fully known. We talk about the allegations, the assumptions, the way Henry was judged, and whether this case exposes a different kind of prejudice: one people are often afraid to call out. We also ask why one cry of “I can’t breathe” seems to shake the world, while another can be ignored, minimized, or forgotten. This episode is about sports, cinema, justice, outrage, and the uncomfortable truth that some stories only matter when they fit the narrative.

Ep.65 "Suck my Knick"

This week on To You & Yours, we’re talking about a moment Knicks fans have been waiting on for decades: the New York Knicks making the Finals. But this isn’t just a celebration, it’s a breakdown of everything that had to fall perfectly into place to get here. The trades, the injuries, the timing, the matchups, the belief, and the Garden energy that made this run feel bigger than basketball. Then we get into OKC and their brand of basketball, talented, explosive, but at times absolutely unbearable to watch. The flopping, the foul hunting, the constant selling contact… where does the league draw the line? And more importantly, how do you stop it before it ruins the product? From there, we react to the Kevin Hart roast and the George Floyd joke controversy, where comedy crosses lines, when outrage is fair, and whether people are reacting to the joke or the weight of the name attached to it. We also talk Chelsea Handler and the bigger conversation she represents: the “I don’t need a man,” hyper-independent, super-promiscuous wave being sold to women as freedom. But is it really freedom, or just another scam? Because the loudest promoters of that lifestyle are often in relationships, have been in relationships, or still benefit from the very thing they tell other women to reject.

Ep.64 "Did it put you through the mattress?"

This week on To You & Yours, we take a deep dive into Drake’s highly anticipated new album, “Iceman.” After what many viewed as the roughest, loudest, and most career altering two years of his run, Drake came into this project in a position we’ve rarely, if ever, seen him in: doubted. Criticized like never before. Questioned like never before. And forced to answer the one question that has followed him since the dust settled: can he still be Drake? We break down the album record by record, dissecting the sound, the bars, the energy, the message, and the moment. Did “Iceman” silence the doubters, or did it give them even more ammunition? Is this a true return to form, something that belongs in the conversation with Take Care, Nothing Was the Same, or Views, or is it simply more of the same from an artist people are starting to expect less from? Did Drake bounce back… or did he just bounce? Is the run over, or is he back like he never left?

Ep.63 "Rat butt dust"

This week we start inside the Octagon with UFC 328, where Sean Strickland did what most people thought was impossible: he walked into a fight as a massive underdog against the boogeyman, Khamzat Chimaev, and walked out as the UFC middleweight champion again. We break down why MMA remains the most unpredictable sport on earth, why “MMA math” almost never adds up, and how Strickland once again proved that toughness, timing, and chaos can flip any narrative. Then we shift to basketball, where the New York Knicks are putting together a historic playoff run through the first two rounds, not just winning games, but doing it with one of the most dominant point differentials the NBA has ever seen. From there, we get into Draymond Green’s latest comment that backfired in real time. Draymond tried to take a shot at Charles Barkley’s Houston years, without realizing that Houston Barkley was still better than any version of Draymond ever was. The backlash is finally becoming universal, and we ask the real question: is it finally time for Draymond to just shut up? We also talk about the Kevin Hart roast, the return of unfiltered comedy, and why Kevin Hart might somehow be one of the most underrated and underappreciated stand-up comedians of all time, despite being one of the biggest names in the world. We close with the hantavirus: what it is, where it comes from, how dangerous it really is, and whether people should be worried about this becoming COVID 2.0, or if the fear is bigger than the facts.

Ep.62 "All cults aside"

We open with Israel’s weekend and the moments that set the tone before jumping into the newly released Michael Jackson biopic and the bigger conversation around just how massive Michael really was. Not just famous, untouchable. We talk about why people today still don’t fully understand the size of his stardom, the way he moved culture globally, and why there may never be another entertainer who compares. From there, we get into the docuseries “The Cult of Nature Boy” and the uncomfortable question at the center of it: how do people fall into these worlds? We talk manipulation, vulnerability, belief, control, and why some people searching for purpose can end up handing their whole life over to someone else. That leads into a deeper conversation about religion, devotion, leadership, and the ways even mainstream belief systems can sometimes take on cult-like behavior when power goes unchecked. We close with an update on the D4vd case, the horrific details that have reportedly emerged, and what comes next as the case continues to unfold.
