from The D.L. Hughley Show · host Urban One Podcast Network

This episode dives into politics, controversy, culture, and Valentine’s Day vibes — all with the sharp wit and unfiltered honesty you expect from D.L. Hughley. A major story unfolds as D.L. and the team unpack why the nation’s governors backed out of their annual meeting with President Trump after the White House invited only Republican governors — a move widely criticized as breaking with the event’s longstanding bipartisan tradition. Reports confirm that the National Governors Association canceled its formal meeting after learning Democratic governors were excluded, prompting 18 Democratic leaders to boycott additional White House events as well. The crew then tackles Trump’s circulating meme depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes, a racist trope that sparked bipartisan backlash and was ultimately deleted after public condemnation. News outlets confirm that the White House blamed a staffer for posting the video, though Trump declined to apologize.   Music icon Morris Day joins the show for a lively conversation reflecting on his legendary career, his connection to Prince, and the evolution of music over the decades. The team closes out with Jasmine’s humorous rundown of top Valentine’s Day ideas — from wine tastings to DIY spa days — echoing wider 2026 trends that favor meaningful, personalized experiences over pricey displays.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
