Killer Mike sits down with Senator Bernie Sanders for a powerful conversation about billionaires, Donald Trump, the Democratic Party, voting rights, artificial intelligence, and the future of working class America. Longtime friends and political allies, Killer Mike and Bernie Sanders reunite on Conversate with Killer Mike for an honest discussion about the growing divide between the wealthy and everyday Americans, the influence of money in politics, and what it will take to build a government that works for everyone. Bernie doesn't hold back. He challenges the Democratic Party to stand with working families instead of wealthy donors, warns about the growing influence of billionaires, and raises serious concerns about artificial intelligence replacing American workers. Killer Mike brings the conversation home, pressing Bernie on the issues facing Black communities, the importance of voting in local elections, and why urban and rural Americans have more in common than they realize. From healthcare and economic inequality to war spending, grassroots organizing, and the future of American democracy, this conversation goes beyond political talking points. It's a candid exchange between two longtime allies who believe ordinary people deserve a greater voice in shaping the country's future. And for anyone who has lost faith in the political process, Bernie offers a powerful reminder: "Despair is not an option."

On this episode of Conversate with Killer Mike, Killer Mike, Cutmaster Swiff, and Bear sit down with Rohit Malhotra, founder of the Center for Civic Innovation and candidate for Fulton County Commissioner, District 4, for a candid conversation about Atlanta politics, economic inequality, public safety, and the future of local government.

What happens when Georgia loses its farms, its farmland and its ability to feed itself? Killer Mike and Cutmaster Swiff sit down with Katherine E. Juhan-Arnold, farmer, founder and Democratic candidate for Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture, for a conversation about an office most voters may overlook but one that touches everything from the food on your table to the price you pay at the grocery store. Katherine explains how losing her job led her back to the lessons her grandmother taught her about growing food and eventually to building Baby Katie’s Farm and Kitchen. She breaks down Georgia’s disappearing farms, food deserts, the importance of buying locally, protecting farmland and creating regional food systems that keep more of Georgia’s agricultural economy inside the state. The conversation also gets into the growing demand for land and water from data centers, opportunities in rural Georgia, agriculture education in schools, Black farmers and heirs property, migrant farm labor, marijuana licensing and why agriculture includes far more than working in a field. Katherine argues that there is a place in the industry for farmers, lawyers, accountants, mechanics, builders, entrepreneurs and the next generation of Georgians.Plus, Katherine gives Killer and Swiff practical advice on what people can start growing at home right now. Most importantly, the conversation is a reminder to read the entire ballot. The races near the bottom can have a much bigger impact on your everyday life than you realize.

Bear and Ashley are back for a special episode of Conversate with Bear, diving deeper into Atlanta’s cycling community with Jay Reid, founder of Dope Pedalers. What started with six Walmart bikes and a few friends riding the Atlanta Beltline grew into hundreds of cyclists showing up every Tuesday and a movement that has reached far beyond Atlanta. Jay Reid takes Bear and Ashley back to the beginning of Dope Pedalers, from discovering cycling and getting dropped on his first rides to building a community that welcomes beginners, serious road cyclists, fixed gear riders, and everybody in between. He also talks about his days working around Bad Boy Entertainment, how those lessons in marketing and promotion helped him build the Dope Pedalers brand, and why cycling became about much more than bikes. The conversation gets into the barriers that keep people out of cycling, “bike snobbery,” the forgotten history of Black cyclists like Major Taylor, and why making cycling accessible matters. Jay Reid also explains how the cycling community can create an economic ecosystem where people support businesses, nonprofits, neighborhoods, and each other. Ashley shares the humbling reality of being a new cyclist, including a 25 mile ride that landed her in the emergency room from dehydration and the group ride that taught her how much she still has to learn. Bear reflects on how Atlanta’s cycling community supported Bear Strong and helped provide essential items to thousands of families. And, of course, they talk bikes. Fixed gears, $7,000 road bikes, Walmart bikes, hydration, getting dropped by an 84 year old woman, One Love, the Five Boro Bike Tour, and why Jay Reid believes there really is a ride for everybody. Because for Dope Pedalers, cycling is about fitness, mental health, community, economic empowerment and bringing people together. “The bike is the solution.” Conversate with Killer Mike is a Third Story Media production. biz: [email protected] Subscribe to Conversate with Killer Mike on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=KillerMikeGTO Conversate with Killer Mike on IG: https://www.instagram.com/conversatewithkillermike/ Conversate with Killer Mike on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@conversatewithkillermike Learn more about your ad choices.

Is America becoming an oligarchy? Senator Jon Ossoff’s answer is clear: “Unquestionably.” Killer Mike sits down with U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff at the SWAG Shop in Atlanta for a candid discussion about money, power, corruption, health care, and an election that could help determine the political future of Georgia and the country. Ossoff breaks down how billionaire and corporate money influence American politics, why Citizens United helped fuel public distrust, and why he believes working class Americans have far more power than they realize if they actually use it. Nothing is off the table. Killer Mike and Ossoff get into Georgia’s health care crisis, Medicaid expansion, disappearing hospitals, maternal health, insurance companies denying patients care, and the financial devastation that getting sick can bring to an entire family. Ossoff also discusses working across the aisle to fight online child exploitation and trafficking, the investigation that uncovered disturbing failures in Georgia’s foster care system, and why bipartisan action is still possible when politicians are willing to do the work. Then the conversation turns directly to the 2026 election. Killer Mike challenges people to do more than simply cast their own ballot. He calls for people to bring others to the polls, knock on doors, contribute to campaigns, and get young Georgians involved. Ossoff says the Senate seat does not belong to him. It belongs to the people. The episode closes with Killer Mike and Jon Ossoff reflecting on Congressman John Lewis, the responsibility of citizenship, and Ossoff’s argument that Georgia is facing one of the most consequential elections in America.

BLXST pulls up to the Garage for a real conversation with Killer Mike, Cutmaster Swiff, and Bear about love, fatherhood, vulnerability, independence, and what it takes to make music with soul. BLXST opens up about growing up in South Central Los Angeles as the only boy surrounded by three older sisters, moving away from his mother as a teenager, finding creativity through isolation, and eventually rebuilding the bond with his mother that they missed during those formative years. He also talks about his relationship with his father, raising two sons of his own, and why showing up every day matters even when love and fatherhood get difficult. The conversation gets into BLXST’s new album, Labor of Love, and his belief that love is a daily commitment, not just a feeling. He breaks down the vulnerability behind records like “Ruin” and “Home,” including turning the trauma of a home invasion involving his family into art. Killer Mike reflects on becoming a fan of BLXST before they eventually collaborated on “Exit 9,” while BLXST explains why he has remained independent, why he prefers controlling the creative process from beginning to end, and why he believes the era of the superstar is over. Then the conversation turns to AI. Can a computer recreate what makes great music human? Killer Mike, Swiff, Bear, and BLXST debate whether AI generated music can ever truly have soul and what happens when a generation grows up listening to music created by machines instead of people.
