This episode dives into politics, controversy, culture, and Valentine’s Day vibes — all with the sharp wit and unfiltered honesty you expect from D.L. Hughley.

This episode kicks off with a cultural flashpoint: right‑wing lawmakers are still fuming over Bad Bunny’s history‑making Super Bowl performance, which was delivered entirely in Spanish and showcased Puerto Rican pride. While conservative figures—including President Trump—blasted the show as “un‑American” and “indecent,” others praised it as a powerful display of unity and representation. From there, the team dives into a viral debate over whether strict parents raise better liars, reinforced by social media discussions and parenting commentary that echo the idea that fear‑based households push kids toward deception as a survival skill. The Question of the Day is do you believe kids with strict parents are better liars. They also examine San Francisco's first teachers’ strike in nearly 50 years, where educators walked out over wages, health benefits, and untenable living conditions in one of the nation’s most expensive cities. The show closes with Jasmine Sanders’ hilarious breakdown of the mixed signals women send around Valentine’s Day—like pretending the holiday doesn’t matter while absolutely expecting effort—capturing the playful contradictions that keep relationships entertaining.

The D.L. Hughley Show opens with a punch as the crew dives into the breaking news that a federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze more than $16 billion in funding for New York and New Jersey’s critical Gateway rail tunnel project after determining the freeze would cause irreparable harm to workers and the region’s infrastructure. DL connects the ruling to the wider political climate, calling out repeated racial fractures in America and Trump’s recent controversies, including the racial meme he circulated. The Question of the Day comes from a fiery take on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show, celebrating the cultural pride and massive global response, while also noting the backlash among critics who attacked the Spanish-language performance — a divide that has dominated social media reactions. R&B legend Howard Hewett joins the team with warmth and wisdom, sharing stories of longevity, authenticity, and artistry that resonate deeply with DL and listeners. The show wraps with more political turbulence as DL highlights the meltdown of Kid Rock’s MAGA‑leaning “Rock the Country” festival, which was forced to cancel its South Carolina stop after multiple artists — including Shinedown, Ludacris, and others — pulled out due to the event’s polarizing political associations. With culture, politics, and music colliding at every turn, DL and the crew keep the conversation sharp, insightful, and unmistakably real.

It is Monday, but the DL Hughley Show Podcast will make you feel like the weekend with a What Had Happened was Friday. DL and the crew will play some of the best calls from last week’s Questions of the Day. On What’s Trending, Jasmine Sanders spoke about a couple that was having a really hard time conceiving a child. The white couple that are from Florida, did several rounds of IVF and the wife finally got pregnant. When she gave birth, the baby came out as a black child. Oleebo the streaming hack warrior is back with another bootleg movie review. Today, Oleebo is reviewing the documentary Melania, which follows the daily life of First Lady Melania Trump.
