Episodes
-
No One Wants to Be Anywhere
Nobody wants to be at work. Half the people at the club wish they stayed home. The gym’s got ring lights next to the squat rack. And somewhere in all of that — we stopped actually showing up for our own lives. Doubl R breaks down why the resistance is rarely about the place itself, why the…
more -
It Is the Phones
This one’s not a lecture — it’s a mirror. Doubl R breaks down why the phone isn’t actually the villain, why willpower is the wrong conversation to be having, and what you’re really reaching for every time you pick it up without thinking. If you’ve ever caught yourself on your phone and had no…
more -
“Keeping Pushing”
First — an apology. Technical difficulties knocked the show offline for a couple of weeks. But Doubl R is back, and the topic was already Keep Pushing — so the universe had something to say. This episode is about perseverance through real chaos: why uncertainty is the operating condition not the...
-
Keeping Up with the Joneses
We’ve all heard the phrase — but who actually are the Joneses? Doubl R breaks down the real nature of comparison culture: who we’re chasing, why we picked them, and the uncomfortable truth that somebody out there is keeping up with you right now. Plus — how to stop running somebody else’s race…
more -
Losing Recipes
Everybody has a dish they can describe but can’t recreate — because the person who made it never wrote it down. Doubl R uses that feeling as a doorway into something bigger: the cultural recipes, family traditions, and ways of doing things that are disappearing without replacements being built in...
-
Stand (in) the Rain
Ever notice how people sprint when it rains like their life depends on it? Doubl R turns that everyday observation into a full conversation about how we respond to discomfort — in the weather and in life. What does your relationship with rain say about how you handle pressure, hard seasons, and...
-
Back & Better
Doubl R is back from a week off and stepping into Season 2 with a new format and a new focus. Less life updates, more real perspective — weekly topics on culture, creativity, the come-up, and everything in between. Now on YouTube too. This week’s topic: the intentional pause. Why stepping back...
-
50 Episodes + NIF Update
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates a major milestone: 50 episodes of the podcast. Started during detox just to stay busy — never imagined reaching this point. Thanking myself and every listener for the support (listening, sharing, kind words). NIF update: First pair of Normal Is Fiction sweats…

Self Care Is Health Care
Day 49: Self Care Is Health Care Doubl R from the Chi gets real about one of the most overlooked forms of power: taking care of yourself. Whether it’s modern medicine, prayer, herbs, therapy, or just drinking more water — the consistent care you give your body, mind, and spirit is the foundation...
-
606 & Go
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates a big moment: Episode 1 of new web series “606 & Go” is live on YouTube — hip-hop news & Black culture, no drama, no negativity, under 10 minutes, 6 topics every Friday. Inspired by 106 & Park but modernized. Sample shirt for Normal Is Fiction dropped, site live...
-
8 Glasses
Doubl R from the Chi stresses daily hydration: why water matters (brain, body, mood), how much you actually need (half body weight in oz + adjustments), and breakdown of types (distilled, spring, purified, alkaline, flavored). Post-detox clarity came from consistent water. Daily motivation…
more -
…Before GTA VI
Doubl R from the Chi laughs at the meme: Things that happened before GTA VI (including this podcast hitting 46 episodes). Quick GTA history (III to V), how gaming/world changed since 2013, and whether GTA VI will shift the industry again. Post-detox life strong. Daily motivation Mon-Fri (with...
-
St. Patty’s Day
Doubl R from the Chi dives into St. Patrick’s Day (March 17): real history (Saint Patrick’s missionary work, not Irish-born), how it evolved from religious feast to global celebration (parades, green rivers, Guinness), traditions (shamrocks, wearing green), and the leprechaun/luck folklore that’s...
-
Case of the Mondays
Doubl R from the Chi calls out the trap: Why do we dread Mondays and live for weekends? Conditioning makes us save joy for two days and survive the other five. Flip it — find something worth showing up for every day. Gratitude, small anchors, reframe Monday as a fresh start. Every day is yours....
-
Rolling With the Punches
Doubl R from the Chi gets real: When life has your back against the ropes — tech fails, resistance, uncertainty — the mindset “if I just keep going” carries you further than you expect. Shared two recent punches: podcast cover photo upload issues (released anyway — message > art), NIF domain...
-
What If It All Goes Right
Doubl R from the Chi reaffirms: Negative thoughts deserve zero weight. Gently hold the idea that things are working in your favor — even when it looks rough. Lessons in rejection (redirection), delay (preparation), failure (feedback). Hold it lightly, don’t squeeze. Post-detox life strong. Daily...
-
NIF Update
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates a big step: Normal Is Fiction sample shirt arrived — unboxing video shot, photos taken, founders posts up on @normalisfiction, same video cross-posted to @doublr_r (go check it!). Site launch this weekend. Nervous but not scared — trusting the process step by step....
-
“40 Episodes”
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates 40 episodes — no idea a podcast would even happen, let alone weekly strong-but-imperfect drops. Owned the misses, grateful for the ride. Still looking forward to responsible monetization down the line. Next big celebration at 50. Post-detox life strong. Daily...
-
“Disappearance of Third Spaces”
Doubl R from the Chi laments the loss of third spaces (barbershops, parks, cafes, rec centers) — places that aren’t home or work. COVID accelerated it, but malls dying, funding cuts, digital shift, and pricing out played a role. Why it matters: community, connection, real socialization. Teens to...
-
“International Women’s Day”
Doubl R from the Chi salutes International Women’s Day (March 8): its roots in 1900s labor/feminist fights, why it still matters (equality, representation, ending violence), and real ways to celebrate — listening, amplifying, supporting, honoring everyday women (and yourself). Post-detox life...
-
“The Goat”
Doubl R from the Chi pays respect to Earl “The Goat” Manigault — Harlem legend, top-of-the-backboard toucher, one of the greatest street hoopers ever. His rise, why the NBA never happened, and the lesson: be great before the world sees you. The term GOAT is overused — define your own. Post-detox...
-
“Normal Is Fiction”
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates a big step: just secured the domain and Insta handle for streetwear brand Normal Is Fiction. Embracing delusion as fuel, claiming Wallo as mentor (like he did Bourdain), following the path (daily pod + now merch). Shoutout to Chicago brand Halfevil for inspiration....
-
“Spring Cleaning (Your Mind)”
Doubl R from the Chi uses early spring energy to talk mental/emotional decluttering: release old regrets, grudges, limiting beliefs, digital noise. Make space for growth, new opportunities, peace. Practical steps: inventory, question, release, replace. Post-detox mind feels wide open. Daily...
-
“What’s goin’ on?”
Doubl R from the Chi checks the pulse: Iran war tensions, Claude/Anthropic AI moves, Scream 7 & Scary Movie 6 news, Tourette’s at award shows, viral craziness. But reminder: don’t let it overwhelm you. FOMO on news isn’t real. Listen to what self needs first — peace over panic. Post-detox life...
-
“Generational Trauma and Healing”
***I said 32 throughout the episode but we’re on 33! Doubl R from the Chi goes deep: We inherit traits, patterns, wounds from family/ancestors — some proud, some painful. But there’s always room to unlearn, heal, and set current/future generations on a better path. Awareness, conscious choices,...
-
“Mercury Retrograde”
Doubl R from the Chi breaks down Mercury Retrograde: what it is (optical illusion of backward motion), how it affects communication/travel/tech (belief vs. reality), shadow periods, and practical do’s/don’ts. Whether you buy it or not — double-check, slow down, reflect. Post-detox life strong....
-
“The War on (Good) Weed”
Doubl R from the Chi reflects: Weed hasn’t hit the same since rec/medical legalization. Early 2000s blunt had 4–5 people high all day; now people face entire Backwoods to get there. Tolerance? Sure. But quality shift is real too. Still federally illegal — theory: gun-heavy states blocking…
more -
“Ads Ads Ads!”
Doubl R from the Chi celebrates 30 episodes (despite missing Friday the 13th — life hit). Reflects on when to incorporate ads: not just for money, but to grow brand/podcast sustainably. Quick history: cable era had contained ads; now every platform floods us endlessly. Staying authentic while...
-
“Good guys vs Nice guys”
Doubl R from the Chi breaks it down: Good guys operate from integrity (do right, keep promises). Nice guys prioritize being liked (people-pleasing, avoiding conflict). One can leave you walked over; the other can feel cold. Balance is the win: strong boundaries + real kindness. Post-detox life...
-
“The Invisible Prisons”
Doubl R from the Chi goes deep: Mental prisons (limiting beliefs, guilt, ‘not enough’ stories) punish us harder than physical ones. Awareness is the first crack — question the sentence, replace the bars, celebrate small escapes. You built the prison — you can unbuild it. Post-detox life strong....
-
“The Holy Month of Ramadan
Doubl R from the Chi dives into Ramadan 2026 (starts ~Feb 17): dispels myths (no, not 30 days without food), fact-checks “devil chained” saying, explains dawn-to-sunset fasting, benefits (mental clarity, physical repair, spiritual reset), and beginner tips for anyone curious. Post-detox life...
-
“Ai is our friend(?)”
Doubl R from the Chi reflects: AI’s been around longer than most realize (Ask Jeeves early 2000s → grandfather status now). Sky’s the limit today — but real costs too: massive clean water use in data centers (Memphis example), job cuts from automation by mega corps. Personally open to AI, but not...
-
“Get Some Sleep”
Doubl R from the Chi reminds us: In a nonstop world, sleep is rebellion. FOMO waits. The planet spins without you. Science shows 7–9 hours rebuilds brain, body, immunity, mood — even supports spiritual clarity. Prioritize rest to show up stronger. Post-detox life strong. Daily motivation Mon-Fri...
-
“Year of the Fire Horse”
Doubl R from the Chi dives into Lunar New Year (Feb 17, 2026) — Year of the Fire Horse: speed, passion, freedom, transformation. Which zodiac signs ride best (Tiger, Dog, Sheep, Horse), how it differs from solar New Year, and tips to navigate: embrace movement, balance fire, stay mindful. Gong Xi...
-
“Love Is In the Air”
Doubl R from the Chi salutes everyone making Valentine’s special this weekend — lovers putting in work, and those flying solo pouring love into family, friends, or self. Luxury can be thoughtful, but quality time, active listening, and personal gestures mean more. Love on who’s in front of you —...
-
“Will It Matter In 100 Years?”
Doubl R from the Chi gets real: We carry so much — angst, fears, regrets — but most won’t matter in 5, 10, 20, or 100 years. When life reminds you, loosen the grip. Focus on today, handle tomorrow when it comes, don’t stress the small unless it truly matters to you. Post-detox life flowing. Daily...
-
“Late Bloomers”
Doubl R from the Chi flips the script: If you bloom — leaves sprout, colors come in, shape forms — you were never late. Different soil, different sun, different timing — your season is yours. Others blooming faster doesn’t steal your light. Own your bloom. Post-detox life strong. Daily motivation...
-
“Championship”
Doubl R from the Chi apologizes for missing Friday/Sunday — Super Bowl festivities hit early. Then dives in: What makes a champion? Belief before the season starts, star team around stars, relentless preparation, and real sacrifice. Sports or not — mindset translates to life. Quick detox update:...
-
“Remain Hungry”
Doubl R from the Chi reminds us: Appreciate where you are — deeply — but remain hungry for growth. Not from lack, but because the journey offers endless more and different. Gratitude grounds you; hunger propels you. Post-detox life: intentional, mindful, still reaching. Daily motivation Mon-Fri...
-
“Within Arms Reach”
Doubl R from the Chi shares the recurring feeling: Everything you want or need is usually within arm’s reach. One small initiation — a step, a yes — and God/Universe/Infinite Spirit activates the rest. With faith and knowing it’s practically already yours, things get easier. Post-detox life:...
-
“The Power of No”
Doubl R from the Chi drops truth: Saying no is power. It guards your energy, time, and blessings. Say no to drains so yes can land for what serves. Post-detox life: intentional social return, mindful old cravings, space for better. Daily motivation Mon-Fri (with flex). Tag @doublr_r on X – what…
more -
“ Make Room for Blessings”
Doubl R from the Chi drops wisdom: Affirm all day, but if there’s no space, blessings bounce. Let go of people, items, habits that no longer serve to create room for better. Example: Wishing for $1M but no secure account to hold it — make room first. Detox complete: Day 21 done! Social back as...
-
“ Reaching the Finish Line”
Doubl R from the Chi gets reflective: Define what crossing your finish lines looks like. Celebrate fully — up and down — instead of rushing to the next or focusing on bumps. Life’s a marathon, but some goals have checkered flags — know the difference. Shoutout to the love of my life for inspiring...
-
“Stand for Something”
Doubl R from the Chi calls it: Be willing to stand up for the voiceless — even scared. The world needs the real you (cursing, snacking, all of it). God/Universe/Infinite Spirit/Mother Earth needs you here as you are. Highlight Minneapolis’ fight against ICE injustices (massive Jan 23 general…
more -
“Build The Door”
Doubl R from the Chi drops game: When no lane or position exists, build the door yourself. Pitch the non-existent role to your manager (value-first). Draft your own record label contract template so you’re ready for the big leagues (TDE, God willing) instead of taking the first offer. Shift from...
-
"You Are Needed"
Doubl R from the Chi drops truth: The world needs you. Your loved ones need you. You need you. And God/Universe/Infinite Spirit needs you — exactly as you are (cursing, snacking, messy, real). No dolled-up version required. You’ve been more than enough since birth. Internalize it. Quick detox...
-
“I Dare You”
Doubl R from the Chi issues the challenge: Do something you’ve been putting off. Something wild your younger self wanted. Something simple you never got around to. Do it scared, do it cheap/free, do it without chasing outcomes — just because life gave you the ability. This week I dared my 9...
-
"Be Open To Change"
Doubl R from the Chi gets real: Missed Friday’s ep but made up Sunday – no self-beatdown, just flexibility. The beauty of adaptability in life: rolling with changes unlocks opportunities, builds resilience. Surviving Chicago’s deep freeze (sub-zero wind chills, single-digit temps…
more -
“ The Power of Love & Light”
Doubl R from the Chi dives deep: The strength in showing up first for yourself to inspire others, pouring from a full/overflowing cup, and embracing our one shared Earth experience – responsibility to each other and the planet. In this brutal Chicago freeze (extreme cold, wind chills to -40°),...
-
"Keep That Fire Alive"
Doubl R from the Chi gets deep on thriving when everything’s frozen (sub-zero wind chills, extreme cold alerts hitting hard tonight/tomorrow). External cold tests us — but real power is building inner warmth through mindset, daily rituals, and gratitude. Ties into detox progress:...
