My Momma Told Me
Comedians Langston Kerman and David Gborie take a deep dive into the most exciting, groundbreaking and sometimes problematic Black conspiracy theories. They’ll have guests cover silly conspiracies, scary conspiracies and conspiracies they learned from that uncle who used to wear jeans when he went swimming in the public pool.

For years, David and Langston have asked the questions that plague America: Is there a war on Christmas? Is Kwanzaa for Gen Alpha? Are there any Black holidays left? This year, we revisit three classic My Momma Told Me episodes to get some answers, and Al Jackson stops by to help us get to the bottom of it.

Comedian and writer Jay Jurden (Yes Ma’am) brings us an authentic, from his mother, conspiracy theory: all Black celebrities know each other. Meanwhile, David and Langston prefer the Transformers when they're in animal form; they've only seen The Matrix once, and they don't forget the Danimals. Barney got the NeNe Leakes, and the SNAP loss will impact Baby Bop. They ponder some other theories, like, is James Brown the Black C...
Are white people getting worse at making food on purpose? Langston and David cook this conspiracy theory in the studio. Does this come from white people's reaction to Black people getting more rights? Is this some sort of sick empowerment? How are bad meals going viral?

Our guest, comedian Jamel Johnson's momma, is worried that the government is trying to make people small and tries to pitch Mama Mia X to Langston and David. As we look into the history of homunculi, we learn the scientists were mixing...seeds—also, carnival slavery and car-jitsu. Girls breaking up fights. We were robbed of reggae pirates in Pirates of the Caribbean. Grills. Steel drums, and Keira Knightley twerking! Imagine ...

Plus, a round of quid pro quo hoe gets him to answer the hard-hitting questions. There's no ...
For the first time, comedian Herman Wrice brings us a classic legend. We're discussing thee American legend Bigfoot. Is the abominable snowman and the yeti the same genus as Bigfoot? What's the real story behind the hoax? Did they find Bigfoot in Sanoma, California? We review the Razor camera footage. This is why they won't say Jesus is Black; if we knew, there'd be anarchy in the streets. Is a giraffe a stretched out horse? What d...

Historically, Dewayne Perkins has had between thirty and forty barbers, and his observation - they're all homophobic. Or at least, the culture of the shop encourages men to feign homophobia to fit in. In the homorotic spaces of locker rooms, sports fields, and barbers' chairs, is there a response from straight men to try to counter that energy? Langston shares the traumatic experience of having the same haircut as his mom. Could a ...

And is AI a...
