The skeleton crew is here, and M-16 opens the show by torching the latest episode of My Black Friend (MBF) — yes, Debo’s own show — after hearing that “separate the art from the artist” R. Kelly take. From there, the chaos only builds. We dive into the Jada Pinkett Smith lawsuit drama, ICE raids in the South, Debo’s ongoing beef with fake Christians (and Will Smith rapping), plus 16’s plea for long-winded people to get to the point. He also makes it clear: please stop inviting him to events where he has to save seats. All that, delivered audio-only this week, with classic ATL-level sarcasm and unfiltered honesty.   Today’s Crew: M-16 and Big Debo   Background Music: X-Yle, Baari X, APA Entertainment   Find all info related to The Radio Show here: linktr.ee/itstheradioshow Guest Inquiries: theradioshowinbox@gmail.com Text Us: 678-800-1677 Try Podbean to host your podcast and get one month free using our link below: www.podbean.com/TRSATL   Check out Big Debo on My Black Friend here: radiocircus.net   For more info on Nine Hair Co Beard Products: ninehairco.com   Check out the ZZ Talk podcast here: https://youtube.com/@zz-talk7975   Watch & Stream via AIR 24-7: AIR 24-7 delivers the hottest music videos across Hip Hop, R&B, Pop, Gospel & Reggae, plus exclusive interviews and indie film features.
