MENS MENTAL HEALTH: Earthquake Gets Real: Black Men’s Health Matters

On this powerful episode of the Madd Hatta Morning Show podcast on Majic 102.1, host Madd Hatta sits down with legendary comedian Earthquake and Dr. Donnell Cooper, Executive Director of the African American Male Wellness Agency (AAMWA), for a candid and unfiltered conversation on Black men’s health. Fresh off AAMWA’s Real Men Real Talk – Mental Wellness Summit in Houston, Earthquake ditches the jokes to deliver a serious wake-up call, urging men to let go of the “macho mentality” and prioritize both physical and mental wellness. From prostate exams to breaking cultural stigmas, Earthquake draws sharp parallels between how men maintain their cars but neglect their own bodies, while Dr. Cooper emphasizes creating safe spaces where men can be vulnerable and access real resources. Together, they tackle the silence, stigma, and systemic barriers holding men back, reminding listeners that true wealth starts with health.
