FULL EP | Keke Palmer Getting Backlash for ‘Southern fried Rice’ Web Series; Was Erica Kirk’s Embrace with JD Vance Too Much; Flights Will be Reduced by 10% at Forty Airports; and MORE

The D.L. Hughley Show Podcast comes in sizzling this week as DL and the crew dish out hot takes and hilarity on the stories everyone’s talking about. The episode kicks off with Keke Palmer catching heat online over her new YouTube web series Southern Fried Rice, which follows a Korean-American woman adopted into a Black family attending an HBCU. Critics accused Palmer of promoting “cultural appropriation,” while DL pushes back, saying, “If we demand diversity, we can’t complain when stories look different.”   Next, things get spicy in the political world as Erica Kirk, widow of conservative pundit Charlie Kirk, goes viral for an intimate hug with Senator JD Vance — a moment that had social media calling it “The Passion of the MAGA.” The Question of the Day is do you think that this embrace was too much for someone who just lost their husband? The tone shifts during What You Need to Know with Sybil Wilkes, as Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirms that the ongoing government shutdown will reduce flights by 10% across 40 major airports, including LAX and O’Hare, due to unpaid air traffic controllers.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-dl-hughley-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
