DLHS Hour 1 | Tasia Fortune, Royce White's WNBA Stunt & Abdul El-Sayed Under Attack

D.L. kicks off with birthday shoutouts to Chris Hemsworth, Viola Davis, and more, then dives straight into the mysterious death of Tasia Fortune — a 29-year-old Black woman found hanging from a tree in Mississippi — and the disturbing pattern of young Black people turning up dead across the South with no real answers. The crew reacts to Royce White announcing he's transgender and plans to enter the 2027 WNBA draft, and D.L. breaks down how MAGA is already trying to otherize Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed by stoking fear over his name and religion — including the absurd claim that he'll force Americans to use "Arabic numbers." Plus, the Jazzy Report delivers sobering stats on job insecurity under the Trump-Vance economy, the collapsing food safety system, and American Airlines pulling first-class upgrades. Then the show opens the phones on a question that hits close to home: do you ever feel safe being the only Black person in the room?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
