So Shameless

Oct 16, 2026 · 1h 24m

In Part Two of this week's So Shameless, the conversations get even deeper as Tahoe, Kelly G, Lama, and the crew tackle friendship, vulnerability, gender double standards, race, and accountability.We kick things off by asking whether men give their female friends relationship advice from a male perspective instead of understanding how women think. Lama takes things a step further when he admits that sometimes he's willing to play the long game as a friend, hoping a woman will eventually see him as something more. Is that genuine friendship or just waiting for an opportunity?Kelly G opens up about experiencing pain in her personal life while refusing to let anyone perceive her as weak, leading Tahoe to ask an important question: What's the difference between being vulnerable and being weak?The discussion shifts to interracial relationships as Kelly explains why she sometimes feels judged for liking white people. We also explore her Jewish ancestry, ethnic cleansing, and the historical and cultural differences between Eastern and Western Europeans.Then things heat up as we debate whether women receive more grace than men, why respect sometimes seems conditional, and whether society spends too much time teaching women how to avoid sexual assault instead of teaching men not to commit it.We also discuss the allegations surrounding Kai Cenat involving alleged abusive behavior toward younger people, and close with a debate about mothers choosing to give their children their own last names instead of the father's.Are men and women really held to the same standards, or do we only believe in equality when it benefits us? Tap in, join the conversation, and let us know where you stand!Socials:Kelly@TheKellyGShow on InstagramLama@LamaBean on Instagram

This week on So Shameless, we’re joined by Kelly G, “The Drill Fairy,” and Lama, owner of Slyte Studios, for an episode packed with controversial opinions, hilarious dating stories, and some uncomfortable conversations about Black culture. We kick things off with Lama asking a question that might make you rethink your entire circle: What’s the difference between a real friend and somebody you’re just cool with? Then things heat up as we discuss Davinci’s controversial interview with Cam Newton, where he calls Americans lazy and incompetent compared to people from other countries and argues that Black Americans need to stop focusing on slavery. Tahoe and the crew dive into the growing diaspora wars between Black Americans, Africans, and Caribbean people, and whether these conversations are doing more harm than good. But the real fireworks begin when we turn to modern dating! Are women expecting men to prove their worth without offering anything in return? Kelly G admits that some women test men to see how much money and effort they can get out of them, while Traum points out that men do their fair share of dry begging too.Are women taking advantage of men in today’s dating culture? Should men always pay for dates? And why are Black Americans, Africans, and Caribbean people still fighting amongst themselves? Lama shares some WILD dating experiences, including breaking up with a woman over an expensive meal, refusing to pay for an uninvited friend, and ending things with someone who ordered too much food and took the leftovers home! Meanwhile, Kelly reveals she’d rather have a man pay one of her bills than take her on a date, sparking a conversation about financial expectations, boundaries, and the difference between being a good man and a nice guy. Are men being used, or are they simply failing to establish boundaries? Are women asking for too much, or are men expecting too much in return? Tap in with Tahoe, Traum, Kelly G, Lama, and the So Shameless crew for another episode where NOTHING is off limits! Drop your thoughts in the comments: What’s the biggest red flag when it comes to dating and money? Socials:Kelly@TheKellyGshowLama@LamaBean

Part Two of this week’s So Shameless gets HEAVY as the crew tackles some uncomfortable conversations about accountability, race, relationships, and the expectations Black men and women have of each other.We start with the Cornell 7 conversation and debate who was actually culpable. Was the young woman victimized, were there multiple people responsible for what happened, or is there more nuance to the situation than people are willing to acknowledge?Then a young woman makes the statement that “Black men are hard to love.” What makes someone feel that way, and are Black men being judged fairly when it comes to relationships?From there, another woman argues that Black women want the “white woman experience” — and that chasing the lifestyle, treatment, and relationship expectations associated with white women can cause some Black women to look down on Black men who can’t or won’t provide it. Is there any truth to that, or is the entire premise rooted in stereotypes?And finally, Megan Thee Stallion says that her relationship with Klay Thompson and conversations about toning down her public image left her in a constant state of panic. When you’re dating someone with a provocative or highly public persona, is it fair to ask them to change? And where’s the line between compromise and control?This one gets complicated.Tap in with the So Shameless crew and tell us where YOU stand.Socials:Reg@LTLEng on InstagramTasia@TasiaJanine on Instagram

The So Shameless crew is back, and we’re starting this episode in HOMIE COURT! 😂 Who is Yesssterday mad at this time?! After a few people show up late, we have to figure out why Yesssterday has an attitude — and who deserves the blame. Then we get into a viral couple who records their arguments and posts them online so the internet can decide who’s wrong. Is bringing social media into your relationship ever a good idea? That leads us into a HEATED conversation when Reg explains the things he will and won’t accept from his woman, his rules about leadership in a relationship, and why he believes his lady should allow him to lead. Tasia thinks some of it sounds misogynistic and controlling. Can a man be the leader of a relationship without controlling his woman? And should there even be a hierarchy between men and women in relationships? Tahoe also tells the crew about an altercation he almost had at a gas station before we get into a wild money dilemma: If someone you know loses $3,000 and YOU find it, are you entitled to take a finder’s fee before giving their money back? 👀 That question leads Tahoe to tell the story of finding $8,500 during one of the lowest moments of his life. Plus, why are people building robots that can actually fight?! Are we moving too fast with AI, and at what point should we start worrying about where all of this technology is headed? Reg also questions why a man would “allow” his woman to take a trip without him — because according to Reg, his lady could NEVER. 😂 And finally, Savannah James says that if she and a friend are traveling together, she isn’t necessarily upgrading her friend to first class just because she can afford to upgrade herself. Her friend says she wouldn’t expect her to — but Tahoe says he would definitely feel a way about it. Would YOU upgrade your friend, or are they meeting you in baggage claim? 😂 Tap in with the So Shameless crew and tell us who you agree with in the comments. Socials:Reg@LTLEng on Instagram

Part Two of So Shameless featuring Kizzle of @expressyourselfblackman and life coach Coach Bellamy (@mrsbellamy.callmecoach) gets personal as we talk about insecurity, fatherhood, relationships, responsibility and some uncomfortable truths about ourselves. We start with something almost everybody experiences but doesn’t always admit: feelings of inadequacy. What do you do when you don’t feel like you’re enough? And how much of overcoming those feelings comes from changing your circumstances versus changing the way you see yourself? Then we get into fatherhood and discipline. What happens when Dad constantly feels like the bad guy because he’s the parent enforcing the rules? Are fathers sometimes sacrificing their relationship with their children in order to prepare them for the real world? From there, Tahoe asks a question that’s guaranteed to start an argument: When your woman is pregnant, should she still have to work — or is it a man’s responsibility to put himself in a position where she doesn’t HAVE to? And does providing that option make it her choice, or should that simply be the expectation? Then things get even more complicated. Does being in a relationship mean you belong to your partner in some way? Are you your partner’s “possession,” or does that language cross a line between commitment and control? We also talk about preparing your children for what happens after you’re gone. Should your kids know what they’re inheriting while you’re still alive, or should they find out when the will is read? And can knowing what’s coming change the way family members behave? Finally, we ask one of the most uncomfortable relationship questions of the episode: Can you be partially responsible for your partner cheating on you? The person who cheats is responsible for the decision they make — but can problems inside a relationship help create the circumstances that lead someone to step outside of it? And is understanding what went wrong the same thing as excusing the betrayal? Insecurity. Fatherhood. Pregnancy. Providing. Possession. Inheritance. Infidelity. Yeah…Part Two went there.

This week on So Shameless, we’re joined by Kizzle of @expressyourselfblackman and life coach Coach Bellamy (@mrsbellamy.callmecoach) for a conversation that goes from astrology and self-awareness to war, politics, the media and how we talk about the Black community. First, we have to figure out why so many of us believe our zodiac signs explain the way we move through life. How much of our personality is really connected to our sign — and how much are we just using astrology to explain behavior we already wanted to justify? 😂 Then the conversation gets much more serious as we discuss the war involving the United States, why America is involved, what Americans are being told about it, and whether the upcoming midterm elections can meaningfully affect the direction of the country. We also get into the growing fight over press access and freedom of the press. With journalists facing new restrictions on access to government institutions, what does limiting the media’s ability to question and observe those in power remind us of — and how concerned should Americans be about the precedent it creates? Finally, we bring the conversation home with a phrase we’ve all heard: “Black people don’t support Black people.” Is there truth behind that criticism, or has repeating it become harmful rhetoric that ignores all of the ways Black people DO support one another? And when we constantly tell ourselves that our own community won’t show up for us, are we identifying a real problem — or helping perpetuate the very perception we’re complaining about? Kizzle (Express Yourself Black Man) and Coach Bellamy join us for a conversation about identity, accountability, politics, community and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are.

Part Two of So Shameless gets into the battle between the male and female experience — and whether we’re so busy proving who has it harder that we’ve stopped actually listening to each other. We start with men living in survival mode and whether conversations about men’s struggles are too often dismissed by immediately comparing them to what women experience. Are men genuinely not being heard — or do men sometimes do the exact same thing when women talk about their problems? Then we take that argument to social media. Do some women go online specifically looking for opportunities to tear men down? Do men do the same thing to women? And how much of what we believe about the opposite sex is actually OUR opinion versus us falling victim to internet mob mentality? From there, we get into the mental load at home. Women often describe feeling like their brains NEVER get to turn off — remembering what needs to be bought, cleaned, scheduled, handled and taken care of. Are men contributing enough inside the home? And even when women say they’re overwhelmed, is it sometimes difficult for them to actually relinquish control and allow someone else to handle things? Then comes the money conversation: Should men ALWAYS pay for everything? Who actually benefits from that arrangement? Does paying make a man a provider, or can traditional financial expectations create unhealthy dynamics for BOTH people in a relationship? Speaking of financial trauma, Tahoe made the mistake of taking his daughter to Sephora and discovered that apparently looking pretty costs approximately the same amount as a small mortgage. 😂 We also ask why sleeping with someone else after being cheated on is sometimes treated like a flex. If somebody hurt you by cheating, does revenge sex actually make YOU feel better — or are you still allowing their actions to dictate yours? And finally, we get into emotional intelligence, adversity and what happens when men allow hurt, ego and emotion to control how they respond when life doesn’t go their way. Men vs. women. Money. Relationships. Household responsibilities. Revenge sex. Social media. …and Tahoe discovering the price of makeup. SocialsChrys Childs@ChrysChilds on InstagramVisit NewMusicWednesdaysLive.comPreme@PremeDaPrez on InstagramFollow @RichFlex for more info about Rich Flex weekendWelcome back to So Shameless.

This week on So Shameless, Tahoe tries to do a good deed by buying a stranger some food — only to realize afterward that what HE thought was kindness might have made another man feel emasculated. Can helping somebody cross the line into disrespecting their pride? Then we get into Lil Durk being found NOT GUILTY in his federal murder-for-hire trial and a much bigger conversation about Black culture, street life and accountability. Regardless of the verdict, should we be more critical of the way we celebrate rappers, drug dealers, scammers and other people associated with street culture? And why do we continue glorifying lifestyles when we’ve seen how often they end? On a completely different note, we introduce something we’re extremely proud of: the new So Shameless Scholarship Fund, created to help young people pursue a college education. Then Tahoe brings the problems back home. 😂 His fiancée requires her daughter, who’s a freshman in college, to call when she goes out and text when she makes it safely back to her dorm. Is that responsible parenting when your child is away from home for the first time — or is Mom having trouble letting an adult daughter grow up? We also get into Papoose and “Jezebel,” and debate whether publicly addressing alleged infidelity through music is fair game. Is expressing your pain through a record different from publicly embarrassing your partner? Finally, we discuss Macklemore being removed from the U.S. leg of Ed Sheeran’s tour following his pro-Palestinian remarks. Was a shared concert stage an appropriate place for Macklemore to advocate for Palestinians? What responsibility does an artist have when they’re performing on someone else’s tour — and where is the line between respecting someone else’s platform and using your own voice? Accountability, parenting, hip-hop, relationships, politics, charity and one good deed that somehow turned into an argument about masculinity. SocialsChrys Childs@ChrysChilds on InstagramVisit NewMusicWednesdaysLive.comPreme@PremeDaPrez on InstagramFollow @RichFlex for more info about Rich Flex weekendWelcome back to So Shameless.

Welcome Back to Part two!Part Two starts with the important questions…like WHO THE HELL IS STILL EATING MOUSSE?! 😂But once we get past that, things get a lot more serious. This week on So Shameless, we ask what friendship really means when life gets difficult. If you have a friend you would do absolutely anything for, should you expect that person to stand beside you through your trials and tribulations — or are there circumstances where even your closest friends have the right to step away? Then we get into Donald Trump’s proposed $5,000 “Trump dividend” for American adults if Republicans maintain control of Congress in the midterm elections, and the crew debates what they think about tying a proposed payment to an election outcome. We also ask a question people may THINK but don’t always admit out loud: Is it ever okay to believe you’re better than certain people, places or situations? From there, we debate whether the Labor Day parade should be canceled, and Tahoe wants to know where the line is when it comes to Fat Joe and the N-word. Does being Puerto Rican and growing up immersed in Black and hip-hop culture give him a pass to use it — and who actually gets to decide? We also revisit the Lindsay Clancy case following the mistrial and discuss why the case has generated such intense sympathy from some women while others strongly disagree with the support she’s received. And finally, Tahoe has a problem that’s MUCH closer to home: Why would his daughter rather have her boyfriend take her to Bath & Body Works than go with her father?! 😂 Friendship, politics, race, relationships, family — and apparently mousse. It’s Part Two. Welcome back to So Shameless.
