Paranormal Permeation

In this episode of The Brilliant Idiots, Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz kick things off by talking real life — from engagements and new babies to the pressures of parenthood and maintaining friendships as life gets bigger. From there, the conversation jumps all over the place in true Brilliant Idiots fashion, blending humor, honesty, and sharp cultural commentary. The guys dive into the state of society, the impact of social media on public opinion, and what role comedians actually play in today’s political and media landscape. They break down why “bad guys” are sometimes necessary in storytelling, why challenging the status quo matters, and how surrounding yourself with yes-men can be dangerous — especially in celebrity culture. Along the way, they touch on major figures like Jay-Z and discuss how influence and authenticity shape public perception. Things stay light with plenty of jokes, wild personal stories, and hilarious takes on the absurdity of modern life. The episode also explores the evolution of podcasts and media, the importance of diverse voices, and why comedy is still one of the best tools for talking about serious issues. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠⁠ Jess Hilarious - Til Death Do We Parent - ⁠Pre Order⁠ 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God - ⁠⁠Pre Order⁠⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel -⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley - ⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks- By Charlamagne Tha God - ⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz - ⁠⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" - ⁠⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
