Hey everyone, we have made it to the ninth month of the year. â I missed an episode last month, but don't worry I give you a full-hour yapathon in this episode. In this episode, I dive into: The numerology of 2026 How hard it is to sit still and do nothing What I've learned from having two no small talk events My thoughts on how B'day fits into the 3 acts The politics of pricing The public backlash from BeyoncĂŠ charging $948 for a wooden vinyl box My theory on what happened Is BeyoncĂŠ a capitalist? Can you refuse to be a billionaire What we can learn from Dolly Parton's legacy Who are the top billionaires in the world Billionaire list mentioned: https://www.forbes.com/real-time-billionaires/ No Small talk đ´: https://funfunfun.events/nosmalltalk/
Consider this your official permission slip to be a little louder, a little weirder, and a lot more yourself. đ After seeing Durand Bernarr perform in Lisbon, I couldn't stop thinking about what great artists actually do. They don't just entertain us; they remind us of who we were before the world told us to tone it down. Inside this episode: Why watching Durand Bernarr is a permission slip The masks we wear to survive and when it's time to take them off Why I think we're entering an Age of Authenticity (I break down the North Node in Aquarius) Durand's unique career trajectory How Tiny Desk has changed Do we still need award shows? Leo vs. Aquarius The magic of seeing Black joy in Lisbon Why I believe we are in a fun epidemic Why I think the influencer era is fading (and what's replacing it) Grab a little treat, go for a walk, and come frolic with me. đ§đ Tweet I mention: https://x.com/iamMelsmith/status/1643794235269824512 Learn more about the north node in Aquarius: https://saturnandhoney.substack.com/p/horoscopes-and-forecast-for-the-nodes?triedRedirect=true My scavenger hunt, August 2nd: https://funfunfun.events/playground/ My SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/lilbukkake/
Season 3 of BBB radio is here with a whole new format. This season is less about interviews and just me breaking down pop culture, taking a page from the original iteration I did back in Season 1 (see on my SoundCloud). This episode I get into: Why I was reluctant to become a DJ Building a sustainable DJing career and being a perfectionist Why RuPaul hates Madonna Does Madonna need to make new music? Has Madonna seen Drag Race? The ageism Madonna faces Why Lizzo is an easy target Lizzoâs low album sales and why we need to stop being obsessed with numbers Lizzo's promise to Prince What pivot I think Lizzo should make for her career How Tinashe and Lizzo's careers mirror each other My most recent mix: Banned Twice from Grindr My shop My events
In this episode, I sit down with my beautiful friend, a Portuguese queer activist and community builder, LetĂcia Da Costa Gonçalves, aka VenusatLisbon. We had this conversation right after the presidential elections here in Portugal (pre-run-off). I gain insight into her predictions for Portugal's future, politically speaking. She shares with me about how Portugal was during the dictatorship, what life was like in Lisbon pre-drug decriminalization, and her thoughts on this recent election.

In this year's final episode, I sit down with my friend Rachel, who you may know as Jesuton. A talented songstress currently living in Rio by way of London, who released her album "Hoje" this past October. đ Jesuton is the total package: brains, beauty, charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent. ⨠Beyond the surface, there lies someone who is sensitive, intuitive, a channel, and most importantly, a steward for her work. This episode, we peek behind the curtain and into the soft pink underbelly of what it takes to be a black independent female artist in this day and age. This conversation is raw, unfiltered, and real. Lots of laughs and gems being dropped. I hope you enjoyâ¤ď¸ Topics discussed: - How this album was born and who she had to become to make it - The "perks" of being a one-woman team and dealing with big egos in the music industry - Does she consider herself a perfectionist? - How she ended up in Brazil and Portugal - Meeting Seu Jorge - Being a steward for her creativity and advocating for her artistry - What AI won't be able to replace - How she got discovered - If she dreams of winning a Grammy - What she wants her legacy to be And all the songs that shaped her đŚ Follow Jesuton on â Instagramâ + â Spotifyâ
