In this episode, Q the Messager shares a hilarious yet eye-opening moment when an old church lady, Betty Smith, scolded him on TikTok for cursing in a freestyle video. Meanwhile, Shane the Brain dives into the etymology of "fanny" and "fuck," and the conversation takes a historical turn as they discuss Dred Scott, the first Black man to go to court for his freedom. Q recounts a conversation with a Birmingham janitor about "the white man keeping us down," leading to a raw and unfiltered discussion on race relations, sundown towns, and systemic racism in America.
Both Q and Shane agree that racism needs to be talked about more, with Q suggesting that an open apology from America could be a starting point for healing. Shane also highlights Daryl Davis’ powerful approach to confronting racism and recommends his interview with Joe Rogan. Thought-provoking, necessary, and at times hilarious, this episode doesn’t shy away from the tough conversations—tune in and join the discussion.
