Jalen's Hurt ft. Dr. Chidi
2026/11/07
After a long hiatus...
#rtbth is BACK LIKE WE NEVER LEFT!
Going back to our roots of talking sports, we get into the recent Jalen Hurts blood clot debacle -- and with a special guest, Dr. Chidi Amah, a cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiology fellow at Penn State. Injuries abound in this season of the NFL. We also talk about what Tunde refers to as fake news interventions to reduce head trauma and other injuries -- your Q Collars and your Guardian Caps. Tune in to hear Chidi's thoughts and why Tunde doesn't think we need to hyperventilate about head trauma in the NFL.

#rtbth LIVE with Emory U.
2025/12/09
#rtbth records our first LIVE VIDEO PODCAST at Emory University!
The co-hosts, Tunde and Herschel - both alumni of Emory University - teamed up with The Emory Alumni Association - sponsored by the Emory Impact Circles and the Caucus of Emory Black Alumni - to record a live podcast on Emory's campus.
The co-hosts bring the usual conversational, informal and informed, and mildly spicy style of beyond the headlines real-talk.
The broad topic for this conversation was consumption in the black community. We cover dark patterns, parasocial relationships, Tunde's fraught relationship with "YN" rap, black people using psychedelics and more! And of course we start the podcast addressing the rollback of DEI at Emory U.

JSwill tells us how and why the lakers always get the big star - this time that star being Luka Legend. And why the Clippers should probably just move to Seattle or Las Vegas. We also talk about the single stain on Lebron's perfect NBA record.

Fork in the Road
2025/02/07
No intro music!!
2025 has launched into a frenzy, starting off with a terrorist attack on the first in New Orleans, a surprise (officially) lawsuit from Drake the rapper suing Universal Music Group (and by proxy his archnemesis Kendrick Lamar), and then accelerating into the never-before-seen territory of government by Elon Trump after the Trump inauguration.
And then Herschel got a completely unhinged email entitled "Fork in the Road."
While we don't want to sound hyperbolic, January 2025 felt like a major inflection point along the trajectory of our nation - and our nation's collective (in)sanity.
We had to do an emergency podcast to talk it out.

Softwave and Psychedelics
2024/11/15
Tunde and friend of the podcast atl_p continue the conversation from the previous podcast and discuss Softwave technology (with a brief detour into psychedelics). P discusses his history of knee injuries and pain and how Softwave has helped him recover. P's story of going from "peg leg" to feeling like his leg is "coming back online" is rather fascinating. Check us out!
*sidenote* - Despite Tunde's implicit hope for ballot 4 to pass in MA in the most recent election, it in factdid not pass 😿.

Opening Night NBA talk ft. atl_p
2024/10/30
Friend of the podcast and Atlanta sports expert atl_p returns to the podcast to discuss the start of the NBA season on the league's opening night.
Topics range from the very stacked western conference, to the charade that is Bronny James getting drafted by the Lakers, and a full breakdown of the ATL Hawks season prospects with the addition of the #1 overall draft pick.
The discussants also take a detour into the Palestine/Israel conflict, and atl_p shares some very sharp insights.
(*correction: Bronny James was drafted 55th overall.)
This is the first of a two-part podcast featuring atl_p. The next episode covers Softwave therapy and how its helped P rehabilitate his knee. (A little psychedelics talk sprinkled in as well.)

Fentanyl Skullduggery
2024/09/15
The #rtbth co-hosts continue the conversation from Doc Talk, i.e., Doc Talk part 2.
The focus on this one is the drug overdose crisis/the fentanyl crisis.
It turns out that both Tunde and Herschel had some exposure to this significant national problem during graduate school. Herschel studying the epidemiology of opioid drug overdoses, and Tunde working in a clinic treating substance use problems.
The co-hosts discuss what they learned and perspectives.

Doc Talk
2024/09/11
#rtbth is back after a little bit of a hiatus due to....well...doctoral responsibilities 😩
And that is what Tunde and Herschel are discussing on the this episode.
Tunde and Herschel recently completed their PhDs and reflect on the doctoral journey on the podcast. The trials and tribulations of graduate school, the oppressiveness of academia, the hedonic treadmill and other topics are discussed.

BACK! for the Very First Time with spcl.k
2023/10/27
Friend of the podcast Kim Thompson and Techno DJ by the name of spcl.k returns to the podcast to talk DeepTech, house music, and.....Northwestern Football?
Turns out Kim is a former Northwestern University football player.
Tunde sat down with his good friend Kim to talk about the ongoing hazing scandal that struck the Northwestern football team last summer, ultimately leading to the firing of 17-year head coach Pat Fitzgerald. Let's just say Kim is not unfamiliar with some of the hazing allegations being levied.
Tune in to hear Kim's perspective.

DKT part 1
2023/06/16
A conversation with DKT.
Darrick, Kalo, and Tunde are psychologists (in-training) in Boston. In this episode they discuss a talk they attended in Brockton, MA, by school psychologist Dr. Umar Johnson. Dr. Umar is a firebrand commentator on social and political issues, trained in the assessment and treatment of children in school settings, and the self-proclaimed Prince of Pan-Africanism. His voice and perspectives are well underrepresented in mainstream psychology, but he's found a way to be heard. DKT reflect on Umar's comments and discuss their own experiences as underrepresented minorities working in the mental health field.

Pretty good
It’s pretty good. Good topics and a relaxed presentation. Herschel is still a punk though.. SG
RB4231 2020/05/27
This podcast is great for millennials who want to hear about different, prescient topics
Tunde and Herschel kill it. It’s both informative and light-hearted and touches on a wide range of topics. Couldn’t recommend more.
