Black & White With You & Me

Surprise surprise! A new study shows that Uber and Lyft are both "quietly" discriminating against Black riders, and taking the "share" out of share-riding. If you're a baseball fan you couldn't ask for more drama as the Cubs and Cleveland head into a do-or-die game 7 tonight. Let's hope they do, not die! And lastly, we encourage all you MF's to VOTE VOTE VOTE! Literally 3 times if you can! This plus Black Pedro performs domestic violence against his iPhone. No one should miss this!

This week on #BWYM, the team discusses a variety of topics including Major League Baseball and the World Series between the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians. Also, we have another installment o of "Cops Gone Wild," with the IACP head apologizes for minority mistreatment. Finally, beating the genes off black people, slavery trauma encoded in the DNA.

Today, in our Muthafucka Say What? segment, the #BWYM gang discusses the way NOT to woo Black voters, and we hope Senatorial candidate Jon Girodes of NY's 30th District in Harlem is listening. We also chat about another baffling jail sentence regarding the use of handguns that's been handed down in Florida and we ponder aloud about when George Zimmerman will finally GET HIS. We talk voter suppression in Indiana at the hands of Mike Pence's leadership, and the firebombing of a North Carolina GOP headquarters. OH, and the fact that Democrats immediately set up a GoFundMe page to help them rebuild. Because Dems get that being psychotic is not cool.

This week, the Team discusses politics and the recent debates. We also cover the most recent leak audio and video of Trump being a disgusting asshole describing grabbing female genitalia. We also give insight to how Floyd Mayweather feels about Black Lives Matter.

While we had many topics on the list today, the debate ate up most of our time and patience. The #BWYM team discusses the ridiculous nature of Trump's behavior during this election, as well as the debate, and the pending ramifications of his incessant "pot stirring." This leads Rena-Marie to reveal an on-line exchange she had with a lesser informed member of her family. Spoiler alert: nobody beats THE HYPHEN!!! We did have time for some "Cops Gone Wild" as we look at footage of an Ohio man as his chin is used to crack a car windshield. Hey, at least he lived right? Wrong! This plus the return of "Donkey Time!" for your viewing pleasure. No need to thank us…money will suffice!

This has been a rough week in which we've seen two Black men die at the hands of police under questionable circumstances, and the communities of Tulsa, Charlotte, and the nation as a whole are angry and looking for answers. The #BWYM team is wondering when is this going to stop, and like many of you, we've reached our limit! Something positive can come from these senseless deaths as the gazebo where Tamir Rice, a young boy shot by Cleveland police, lost his life is being preserved and moved to Chicago for safe keeping. Hopefully it can serve as a reminder of the severity and frequency of police violence and abuse in our country. One person who is reminding us all of this country's problems is Ms. Elizabeth "Go Get 'Em" Warren who served the Wells Fargo CEO, John Stumpf, with a some overdraft fees in the form of a verbal foot in his ass. You have to watch this video clip! Amazeballs! That plus our usual small talk make for one helluva show! You're welcome…

On today's episode, the #BWYM team discusses a variety of different news related topics including the bomb attacks in New Jersey and New York and the stabbing attacks in Minnesota. We also discussed the gas pipeline that burst in Alabama and the prison strikes happening in prisons across the country.

In this episode, Mike and Rena-Marie discuss their personal back yard DIY project. Also, Hillary Clinton falls sick with pneumonia. Well, she feel first getting into the car, then it was determined that she has pneumonia. And, it wouldn't be a show without a little campaign finance reform conversation. All that and more on #BWYM.

Picking up on our banter from last episode, we give an update to the Kaepernick/National Anthem issue. First of all, we analyze the LEAST important thing that a prominent Black athlete has ever said politically as we look at Cam Newton's cop-out response to the protest. Stick to dabbing dogg!!! This also leads us into a discussion about the third stanza of our national anthem…you know, the one about killing slaves who run towards freedom? Yeah, it's our favorite verse too! And you know we can't get through the day without some Trump-hate, as Rena-Marie highlights an egregious violation of our legal system that allowed the Don to bribe a state AG, get caught, and pay a minimal fine. WTF 'Murica? Can we get some regulation in the house?!? This plus some fill-ins on TNS' backyard and the college football opening weekend on #BWYM 151! Drink responsibly!

Team #BWYM goes, in-depth, into Colin Kaepernick's protest and subsequent responses from various demographics. There is a history of Black athletes, in particular, using their power to shed light where there is darkness. Is the SF QB following in those footsteps, or disrespecting 'Murica? What WILL probably end up being disrespectful will be Trump's visit to Mexico. You know, the place that he wants to wall-off from the rest of North America? Sounds like fun in the sun…as if he needs more tan! Come laugh at this crazy world with us!

On Today's show, we are minus a host, due to a scheduling conflict, Black Pedro was unable to make it in today. Fortunately, we have a guest to help take up the void. Mike and Rena sit down with actor and comedian, Justin Rupple to discuss the topics of the day. In this show, we talk about performing impressions. We also find about how Justin feels about Donald Trump. Finally, we put in our 2 cents relating to the 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick protest.

This week team #BWYM catches up on their weekend as Mad Mike offers up some helpful tips when starting that sodding project you've been looking forward to. We give an update on the Laquan McDonald case as Chicago PD pursue the firing of seven officers for providing false information. Do we still wonder why the community is upset? Speaking of upset, Donald Trump is just that with the Black community. He can't seem to figure out what they have to lose by voting for him. While there may be many problems in the community, in voting for Trump, Blacks will have only one thing to lose...THEIR MINDS!!! We also get into an interesting discussion about labor movements on a global scale and how they effect American workers. We also discuss how Americans, especially stupid ones, effect our global reputation. Yes, we are talking about Ryan Lochte and how white privilege can allow him to be defined as a 32 year old "kid!" Speedo withdrew their support...shouldn't we all?!? This plus laughs, laughs, laughs on this week's #B

this week, the BWYM team gets together for another discussion of world and local events. They spend a little time just catching up from last week. Black Pedro lets us know how he's feeling about this years Olympics and the many black athletes winning gold. We also give a little time to discussing some politics, letting Donald Trump know how we really feel.

After a long hiatus, the team is back for another installment of Black & White with You & Me. In this episode, we play catch up on our lives and do a little recap on the current Presidential election. Stay tuned for more episodes, Mondays, live on Facebook at 9am (PST) and on YouTube at 12p (PST).

In addition to touching on today's headlines, the #BWYM team gets real from the jump as Black Pedro is out here yelling "fuck Hillary!" But give him a minute, this "fuck you" is for the benefit of us all. If there has ever been an example of white privilege, it can be found in the judge's sentencing of former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner. While we fight for #blacklivesmatter, maybe we need to take up a #womenlivesmatter too. And it is finally that time when the world's athletes come together to battle against a viral epidemic. Wait what? The Zika virus is on its way to ruining this summer's Olympics in Brazil as top athletes are weighing the risks of possible infection against a lifelong dream. This plus a "Mutha FUcka Say What" that will make you say "Mutha FUcka Say What!?" Be sure to follow us on YouTube now!

In this episode, the #BWYM crew discusses their recent YouTube post of episode 143 and the trolling from the ProGun group. Pedro explains how he feels about the media and their handling of the primary election and Bernie Sanders. Rena-Marie gives us insight into the disaster at the Cincinnati Zoo.

This week we touch on what it means to be Black as Wayne Brady challenges Bill Maher to a pugilistic duel (sort of) as a result of Maher's constant criticism of Brady's "blackness." If they do fight, it may be harder for either of them to get their hands on bullets here in California as a new set of gun control measures are up for a vote in the state house. Don't worry, you'll still have your second amendment, you just be limited to shooting 10 people instead of 11. What may seem like karma coming back for all the maple syrup vapor being spewed into our atmosphere, a man finds himself missing teeth with a hole in his tongue after his vape pen exploded in his mouth. Turns out this is not an isolated incident, which gives another reason to ask, "why is anybody doing this shit?" These stories plus the latest blurbs "In The News" here on Ep. 143 of #BWYM!

In this episode, the #BWYM team sits down to discuss the topics of the day, which includes the following headlines: America’s Top 10 Job-Killing Companies, Detroit Public Schools Vendor Scandal Hits Home For Black Pedro, and The Dark Underbelly of the Modeling Industry. We've created a NEW format for the show. We are now producing a 1 hour and 30 minute show. The entire show can be listen to via audio, but we will be breaking down the segments into smaller run-time videos based on the actual segment runtime. This should make it easier to get thru the content. At least we hope it will. Be sure to video our YouTube channel, you can find it by visiting our website, go to blackwhiteyoume.com for more.

We knew that it would only be a matter of time before details, rumors and straight up conspiracies would begin to flood the internet regarding the mysterious and untimely death of Prince. What killed him? Drugs, murder, Arsenio Hall??? We don't get to the bottom of it, but we're all up in the middle! This week's "Cops Gone Wild" we have a double header featuring an Arkansas judge caught with thousands of nude photos of male defendants as well as an update regarding charges against the officer who murdered Walter Scott in Charleston, SC last year. Can we find a better way to keep freaks and murderers out of positions of power? We talk education often, in particular, about public schools, and this week a great article on NPR.com provides some perspective into the complex conditions that contribute to the achievement gap among men of color specifically. The problem kids aren't the problem…their problems are. And for a story that makes us asks, "Mutha Fucka Say What?," we look at a cemetery in Texas (surprise) th

This week's #BWYM installment takes a look at the human body's baffling response to massive weight loss, as shocking results from winners of the reality hit "The Biggest Loser" provide scientists with insight regarding metabolism. Your body wants cake!!! Detroit teachers are sending a message to the powers that be by shutting down 94 schools with a city wide "sickout" in response to reports that the system is out of money and won't be able to pay teachers come June. Maybe the teachers can earn money by suing Starbucks for too much ice in their drinks like a Northern Illinois woman. I've heard of $5 million dollars for ice…but it shouldn't melt! ANOTHER person connected to the investigation and initial court case in the Flint water scandal is DEAD. The water isn't the only thing that stinks in that town. The LA Sheriff's department discovered a stinker in their midst (you know, 'cause there's just the one) after racist emails were exposed, highlighting yet another example of those in power policing the very pe
