  Clones, Comebacks & Controversy

  Aug 12, 202634 minS1

  This week on Unchecked Views, the crew delivers another episode packed with sports, entertainment, nostalgia, conspiracy theories, and plenty of chaos. We kick things off with Stephen A. Smith apologizing to Kyrie Irving over his past comments surrounding COVID-19 and vaccination, sparking a conversation about accountability, changing your mind, and whether public figures should be expected to apologize when they get it wrong. Then 2KBoo takes us behind the scenes and talks about her experience testing before becoming an extra on an episode of BMF. That leads into a nostalgic conversation about life during COVID, including the shows everyone binge-watched and the crew's decision to revisit Game of Thrones. Next up: Does Usher have a clone?! The internet has questions after fans started wondering who exactly is doing some of the dancing during his concerts. The crew gives their theories—and their opinions are definitely unchecked. We also react to the bizarre story of a “Grim Reaper” hospital employee who was arrested after allegedly causing a disturbance, plus the headlines surrounding Luka Dončić's ex and reported financial requests involving child support. The NBA gets plenty of attention as we look at the Lakers' very different-looking lineup and debate whether their new roster can actually compete at the highest level. On the culture side, we discuss a 50-year-old woman celebrating her milestone with a wedding ceremony, the potential return of MySpace, and Rap University with Soulja Boy being canceled/no-showing amid questions about promotion and turnout. We also talk about Gucci Mane continuing to release Pooh Shiesty's album despite the controversy, and whether artists should separate business from personal situations. And finally, the moment nobody saw coming: Ant falls asleep during the show! From serious conversations to wild conspiracy theories, nostalgia, sports, music, and one very sleepy co-host, Episode 19 is another reminder that you never know where Unchecked Views is going next. ️ No scripts.

  Bonnets, Bucket Lists & Brutal Dating Takes

  Aug 5, 202645 minS1

  This week on Unchecked Views , the crew mixes culture, entertainment, relationships, and personal goals into one of our most opinionated episodes yet. We kick things off with the new dress code at Tuskegee University restricting bonnets, durags, and other attire on campus. The crew has strong opinions on whether schools should enforce appearance standards or if students should have the freedom to express themselves however they choose. Next, we break down the viral concert moment where Usher dismissed a fan from the stage after she didn't seem engaged during the performance. Was she really there for the Usher experience or was she secretly waiting for Chris Brown? We also discuss Chris Brown's headline making interactions with fans during his tour, his recent guilty plea to lesser charges, and what the upcoming sentencing could mean for the remainder of his tour. The crew also reacts to the continued controversy surrounding Dr. Cheyenne Bryant and the growing questions about credibility, accountability, and trust when it comes to public figures who position themselves as experts. From there, we shift gears and get personal by sharing our bucket list goals: from ziplining and boxing to traveling the world. We reveal our dream destinations, including Africa, Dubai, and other places we hope to experience, while discussing the legacy we want to leave and the goals we're working toward beyond the podcast. To close out the episode, we have a fun but revealing conversation about relationship dealbreakers . Could you date someone who hates sports? Is long-distance love worth it? What if they have completely different political views? The crew debates what makes someone truly "undateable" and which red flags are absolute dealbreakers. ️ From culture debates and celebrity headlines to life goals and relationship hot takes, Episode 18 is packed with laughs, honest conversations, and opinions that spark debate.

We kick things off with the blockbuster rumor of LeBron James potentially joining the Philadelphia 76ers.

We also talk about the latest legal developments involving R. Kelly and what they could mean for his future, while exploring how public opinion often shapes conversations around high-profile cases. The crew then dives into the estate dispute involving Malcolm-Jamal Warner, discussing family dynamics, prenuptial agreements, estate planning, and why having an updated will is so important. We also examine the Nolan Wells case, sharing our thoughts on the investigation, the unanswered questions that continue to surface, and why renewed public attention—including coverage from Nancy Grace—has people following the case so closely. To lighten the mood, we switch gears and compare our biggest relationship red flags —from lying, cheating, abusive behavior, and financial irresponsibility—to the green flags we believe make relationships healthy and successful. Finally, we wrap up the episode with a hilarious round of "This or That," debating favorites like Chick-fil-A or Popeyes , morning person or night owl , and other rapid-fire choices that reveal a lot more about the crew than expected. ️ Whether it's sports rumors, celebrity headlines, true crime discussions, or relationship debates, Episode 17 is packed with unfiltered conversations, laughs, and opinions you won't want to miss.
