Uncertain with DL Hughley

Black women warned Target. We organized. We boycotted. We took our money elsewhere. Target still refused to hear us—and now the same company that gutted DEI somehow approved a children’s costume evoking blackface and minstrel imagery. That wasn’t one person’s “mistake.” That costume passed through design, marketing, photography, merchandising, legal and corporate approval—and apparently nobody in the room had the courage or cultural awareness to say, “What the hell is this?” Target says it’s sorry. Viola Davis isn’t accepting the apology—and DL Hughley isn’t buying it either. Because when Black women tell a corporation it has abandoned us, why does it take public humiliation before anybody pays attention? DL also goes in on Hakeem Jeffries’ secret meeting with Jared Kushner, Black and Brown communities abandoned without power, America’s reckless trade war with Canada, dangerous food recalls and surveillance cameras that always seem to see Black people—but never protect us. This episode asks one brutal question: How many times must Black people prove we matter before America starts acting like it? Watch Episode 39 of UNCERTAIN with DL Hughley.

Brandon Tatum called Michelle Obama ugly—and DL Hughley is about to give him all the smoke and show him what ugly really looks like: desperation, hypocrisy, and begging for white approval in public. In Episode 38 of Uncertain, DL tears into Tatum’s obsession with attacking Black people for applause, then turns to Stephen A. Smith, who says his critics still haven’t produced the “receipts.” Oh, the receipts exist. The question is whether Stephen A. is finally ready to read them. But the outrage machine doesn’t stop there. MAGA wants America terrified of transgender athletes while families can’t afford groceries, healthcare or damn near a hot dog. Enes Kanter Freedom gets thrown out of a WNBA game after provoking Natasha Cloud—and somehow a man with a reported $500,000 bounty on his head decided this was the fight worth having. Then Zohran Mamdani funds children, protects workers, goes after bad landlords and invests in struggling communities—leaving DL to ask the question Christian politicians won’t like: Why is a Muslim mayor doing a better job of following Jesus than they are? Plus, Abdul El-Sayed confronts Jesse Watters over manufactured culture wars, Hunter Biden sounds off on war, and DL exposes the oldest political hustle in America: keep people angry about imaginary threats so they never notice who is picking their pockets. This episode is ruthless, hilarious and guaranteed to offend exactly the right people.

The military is dealing with turmoil. ICE keeps pushing the limits. The DOJ is facing questions over wrongful investigations. Public-health concerns are resurfacing. Thousands of Ethiopians could lose deportation protections. And overseas, Iran and the Strait of Hormuz are adding another potentially explosive problem to the pile. This week on UNCERTAIN, DL Hughley looks at the growing trail of Trump administration controversies and asks a simple question: At what point does “winning” start looking a whole lot like losing? Trump sold America strength, order and control. DL takes a hard look at what America actually got—and why some of the people who bought into the promise may now be living with the consequences. And DL speaks about the possibility of sitting down with Killer Mike to have a bigger conversation about Black America: Can we disagree politically without questioning whether the other person loves our people? Trump promised strength. America got chaos. And DL has receipts. Watch UNCERTAIN with DL Hughley now, subscribe, and sound off below: Is this what Trump voters signed up for? New episodes weekly.

Stephen A. Smith is furious after the NABJ called out what it says is his recurring pattern of disparaging prominent Black women. But DL has a question: Where was all this smoke when Donald Trump came for YOU? And Stephen A. running to Sean Hannity to complain about Black journalists? Oh, DL has something to say about THAT. From Serena Williams, Kamala Harris, Jasmine Crockett and Joy Reid to his battles with Black athletes and HBCU supporters, DL looks at the pattern behind the controversy—and asks whether Stephen A. has confused being loud with being right. Then somehow Candace Owens starts making sense while battling Andrew Wilson over the Charlie Kirk case. Yes. We know. Hell may need a coat. And finally, the laughs stop. After 29-year-old Tasia Fortune was found hanging outside an abandoned house in Mississippi, DL asks why Black Americans are repeatedly told not to jump to conclusions when history gives them every reason to demand answers. Authorities had not classified Fortune's death as suspicious at the time of the rundown, and an autopsy was pending. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week on Uncertain, DL Hughley opens the mailbag — and then closes the beaches. After the death of Nolan Wells on Horn Island and a summer of Black men turning up in trees and rivers with "no foul play suspected," DL makes the case nobody wants to say out loud: part of Jim Crow had a point. Marriage? Fine. Family reunions? Fine. But no swimming, no camping, no hiking — because we never lose white people, and there’s a reason for that. From the mother who had to track down her own son’s phone, to officials who "don’t want to be rushed," DL, Jasmine and Austin ask why there’s never a sense of urgency when Black children don’t come home. Then it’s ICE killing a man in Maine who wasn’t even the target of the warrant — no body cams, no accountability, and a batting average that would get anybody else fired; Amy Coney Barrett wanting a bulletproof vest in the country her Court armed ("you made guns easier to buy than Sudafed"); Mitch McConnell missing so long DL can’t tell if he’s dead or alive — with the finest insurance in the world, the kind he spent his career denying you; and Lindsey Graham’s eulogy problem: to eulogize means to speak well of — of what? DL closes with the World Cup, why every great team in Europe is stocked with the descendants of the colonized, why the road to the World Cup final runs through the Blackest city in America, and a shanked golf shot hit on purpose — for Charlie’s boy, on the eighth anniversary of his old man’s passing.

America turned 250 and celebrated the only way it knows how: a few hundred masked white nationalists riding the Metro to the Capitol. DL breaks down white supremacy on a budget — racists take the train too — why you can't tell the Patriot Front from the ICE agents (they shop at the same store, and they mask up for the same reason), and the cosmic karma of MAGA families sheltering from the storm inside the Black History Museum. Then the question nobody at the White House would answer: on the nation's birthday, white nationalists marched on the Capitol — and the only people who won't denounce white supremacists are white supremacists. Plus Michael Dell's wife hits the White House, and DL learns what the "Lago look" is. Then it's the World Cup: Trump personally called FIFA and got Folarin Balogun's red card lifted — for the first time in 60 years — to save a striker who only exists because of the birthright citizenship he's trying to abolish. He fought to remove a red card for a man he wouldn't give a green card. From there: Trump's golden eagle and the Nazi bird it looks suspiciously like, Marco Rubio's big shoes, Graham Platner, Susan Collins, and the party that hates socialists more than it hates rapists. DL asks the question everybody in Kentucky is whispering — is Mitch McConnell having a Weekend at Bernie's? — before getting serious about Nolan Wells, the Mississippi teenager who went out on a boat with his white classmates and never came home, Kohen Wiley, and Marcellus Wiley's Fourth of July arrest. DL closes with the question his father asked him outside a liquor store on Imperial and Avalon — the same one he's asking America now: Aren't you tired?

DL is back and nobody is safe — not the Black Trump supporter who cornered him at a Chicago bus stop (and missed his bus AND the point), not Clarence Thomas, who DL calls “the Stephen A. Smith of the Supreme Court” after his 91-page dissent in the birthright citizenship ruling, and definitely not Megyn Kelly, who claims “we built this country” when her family didn’t clear customs until the party was over. As the Supreme Court hands down its 6-3 decision on the 14th Amendment, DL flips the script: if we’re closing the gate, let’s close it at 1868 — which means Stephen Miller, Vivek Ramaswamy, Brett Kavanaugh, and half of MAGA’s loudest voices are packing their bags. Then it’s on to the Court’s trans athlete ruling, JD Vance getting glazed on Bill Maher, Stephen A. Smith toasting Maher at his Mark Twain Prize like one professional you-know-what to another, and Mamdani putting every mayor in America to shame while the Knicks bring a title back to New York for the first time in 53 years.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley opens on a president who started a war but can't clean a pool — the vandalized reflecting pool, the peroxide, and what it says that the country swearing it can beat Iran can't beat algae — before getting into the "two Americas" gap between the detective who called DL back about a storage locker and the bank fraud nobody ever called Alex about. From there DL, Jasmine, and Alex take on Jeff Metcalf's post-verdict media tour and the racial double standard buried in jury selection: the claim that only one kind of person can be fair, the preemptive strikes used overwhelmingly against Black jurors, and the long roll call — Fanny Willis, Letitia James, Sunny Hostin, the Black judge in the Botham Jean case — that proves Black America has never had a problem meting out justice to its own. DL breaks down the CDC data that buries the absent-father myth, then turns to the bigger question on the week America turns 250: Eddie Glaude saying out loud that he doesn't love this country, the Fourth of July lie we all agree to tell each other, and what it means to love something the way you'd love an abusive parent — the only one you've got. Then it's Bill Maher calling the Obama library a "monument to arrogance," and DL explaining why, in an era of erasure, that building might be the only proof this man ever existed — and why Black people are, in fact, going to hike.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley spends Father's Day making the case nobody wants to hear: every time somebody asks "where are the Black fathers at," the answer is Jalen Brunson winning a Knicks championship with his own father right beside him. From Jeff Metcalf's comments about Black dads to Boomer Esiason and the "respect the office" crowd, the Karmelo Anthony verdict and what "stand your ground" was really built for, a one-year-old shot by police in Mississippi over diapers, ICE policing the World Cup, Tony Hinchcliffe, Stephen Miller, and an honest conversation about Black and Jewish solidarity — DL, Jasmine, and Alex break it all down. Then DL gets to the throughline: America started a war with Iran, walked away holding the bill while everybody else took the money, and still found time to remind us whose humanity counts. Same question every time — why couldn't you just mind your business?

DL Hughley is back, and this week the Temu Trump came for LA — and LA said no. DL breaks down Karen Bass's primary win over Spencer Pratt, why Los Angeles was never going to elect a mayor named Spencer, and how a city bigger than 40 states became the target of a DOJ investigation for counting too slow. Plus: the homelessness money nobody can find, who's really stealing it (hint: it ain't poor people), and why rich people don't want to solve homelessness — they just don't want to see it. Then DL torches Bill Maher for being the only comedian thirsty enough to take a Mark Twain Award from a man who got Colbert canceled, goes in on Stephen A. Smith for speaking up for the Knicks but not the people, and asks what context Nick Cannon could possibly be missing. And in the wake of the Karmelo Anthony verdict, DL lays out what stand your ground really means — and who it was built for.

DL's back in New York at Gotham Podcast Studio — a wall of liquor, a Knicks/Spurs/Giants debate nobody asked for, an Odell Beckham story that ended the second money came up, and Alex catching strays over a dude-wipe ad. Plus a shout-out to Jay-Z for still being slick, still relevant, and still holding onto all that hair. Then the heavier stuff: one last word on the Kevin Hart roast — Gary Owen, Joe Rogan, the whole Rogan tree — set against the Minnesota GOP's moment of silence for Derek Chauvin and what George Floyd still means. From there, Vivek Ramaswamy's Ohio run, the Kaepernick-vs.-Jackson-Dart "political" double standard, Pete Hegseth and "white affirmative action" running the Iran war, Ken Paxton vs. Talarico in Texas, Karen Bass and the LA mayor's race, and Trump's 250-year party that no act will touch — except Vanilla Ice, Flo Rida, and a booking agent named Epstein.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley pours one out for Rob Base before getting into the most contentious writers' room the show has ever had. Two weeks in, the panel still can't let go of the Kevin Hart Roast, and DL stakes out the unpopular ground: a comedian should never apologize for a joke, let alone one he didn't tell. But Jasmine, Austin, and Alex aren't having it — if Hart cut 18 jokes to protect everyone from Melania to the military to Tony Hinchcliffe, why was George Floyd the one line he wouldn't draw? Tom Brady stopped his own roast. Hart had the power and chose the numbers. From there, DL breaks down Cheyenne Bryant and why a Black woman with a PhD still gets asked for her credentials the way Tucker Carlson asked Ketanji Brown Jackson for her SAT scores. Then the throughline lands: the LA mayor's race pitting Karen Bass against a game show host, why homelessness lives wherever the billionaires do, and why this administration's one real accomplishment is showing exactly how much this country will tolerate — if you're white. A nigga can't even wear a tan suit. DL says it plain: infamy is better than fame, and somebody always cashes the check.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley pays tribute to Barney Frank — the first openly gay congressman, a Freedom Summer volunteer, and a civil rights champion whose passing marks the end of an era — before turning to the death of Mark Fuhrman and what his career revealed about the LAPD, the most deadly police department in the country. From a sheriff's department gang that recruits from the South to the Rampart Division's reign of corruption, DL connects Fuhrman's legacy to a city built on quiet brutality, and asks why a president who can't feign empathy went silent after the San Diego mosque shooting. The conversation then turns to the Kevin Hart Roast, Tony Hinchcliffe's recycled George Floyd joke, and Big Jay Oakerson's decision to take a swing at DL — a swing DL returns with interest. From there, DL breaks down why five-star Black athletes need to stop running to SEC schools that disenfranchise their families on Monday and cheer for them on Saturday, why NIL money should travel where Black communities are respected, and why the Trump administration's reparations fund for J6 defendants has accidentally opened the door for the strongest restorative justice case Black America has ever had. Eminent domain, Bruce's Beach, Bob Jones, Seneca Village, and a mountain in Calabasas that used to have a name no one should ever say out loud — DL lays out the receipts and says it plain: get your money, man.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley unpacks the Kevin Hart Netflix Roast and why putting Tony Hinchcliffe on stage to tell a seven-year-old George Floyd joke wasn't edgy — it was the plan. DL breaks down how the original Dean Martin roasts came from people who actually liked each other, how the MAGA crowd that called for Jimmy Kimmel's head over a Charlie Kirk joke suddenly discovered free speech when a dead Black man was the punchline, and why "Kevin Hart said it was okay" doesn't make it okay. Plus a long-overdue conversation with Charlamagne tha God about nuance, the "couch as an option" era, Killer Mike's prosecutor talk while his daddy wore a badge, and how telling Black folks both candidates were trash helped get us exactly where we are. Then DL gets to the through-line: America has never fought a war where it didn't also find time to fight us. Black men died next to white men in Vietnam jungles but couldn't use the same bathroom in Georgia. We helped beat the Axis and came home to Jim Crow. Right now we're bombing Iran to stop them from getting a warhead while the South is rolling back our ballots. DL makes the case that young Black athletes should gerrymander Alabama's offensive line the same way Alabama gerrymandered the congressional map — because without us, the SEC is rugby. Plus the writers' room goes off on a "JD Yakub" devil's-advocate bit about colonization, the top 20 genocides, why the only thing that's killed more people than the European white male is the mosquito, and why China builds bridges in places America abandoned.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley and the crew break down why Spirit Airlines might be the purest reflection of modern America: chaotic, underfunded, loud, and somehow still functioning. From “you get there when you get there” customer service to aisle fights, baggage fees, and airport survival stories, DL explains why flying Spirit feels less like air travel and more like entering a televised social experiment. What starts with an unusually quiet Cinco de Mayo in Los Angeles spirals into conversations about cable-news chaos, viral political arguments, internet experts suffering from the Dunning-Kruger effect, and why everybody suddenly thinks yelling on television counts as intelligence. The conversation then turns serious as DL dives into celebrity political influence, the erosion of voting rights, and America’s long history of using famous Black voices to help sell policies that ultimately hurt Black communities. From Stephen A. Smith and Killer Mike to Nixon-era politics, Reagan, Clarence Thomas, and the backlash to Barack Obama, DL argues that the country keeps repeating the same playbook while pretending each version is brand new. Along the way, he reflects on Ted Turner’s legacy, why cable news became professional wrestling, and what happens when a nation stops learning from history and starts treating dysfunction like entertainment.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley borrows from Napoleon to diagnose what's wrong with this White House: there are no bad soldiers, only bad officers. And right now, the officers are cosplaying. DL breaks down Pete Hegseth running a war he can barely wear the uniform for, JD Vance lecturing the Pope, Linda McMahon bringing WWE energy to the Department of Education, and Kristi Noem getting walked after a $2 million makeup budget. The Peter Principle, live and in color. Then DL gets into the Iran conflict that was supposed to be quick—and why you can't run a simple war with simple minds. Plus: James Comey getting indicted over shells in the sand while the Epstein list stays buried, the FCC trying to muscle ABC, Bill Maher accepting the Mark Twain Award from a president actively trying to kill comedy, the strange Kirk widow press tour, and why anything with Trump's name on it is going to age like a Vanilla Ice album.

In this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley breaks down why political violence isn't a glitch in the American system—it's the operating system. From Andrew Jackson getting jumped on the Capitol steps to the 13 attempts on Obama's life, DL takes you through a history this country tries hard to forget. He gets into King Charles coming to America to give us a civics lesson on a Constitution this administration treats like toilet paper, and what it says when an actual monarch has to remind us nobody is above the law. Then the conversation turns to the White House ballroom incident and why nothing about that night adds up—from the Secret Service walking past a man with a gun to Caroline Leavitt's eerie warning three days before. Plus: Russell Brand's casual confession to Megyn Kelly about a relationship with a teenager when he was 30, why legality isn't morality, Jim Jordan running Epstein oversight while named in a misconduct lawsuit, and why this administration cares more about firing comedians than releasing the Epstein list.

On this episode of Uncertain, DL Hughley breaks down Tucker Carlson’s sudden apology—and why the only people surprised by Trump were the ones who wanted to be. Then it goes off the rails. From Trump’s reported attempt to access nuclear codes to the DOJ trying to drop charges against Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, DL dives into what happens when power protects itself. The crew also gets into Kash Patel suing over reports of drinking on the job, RFK Jr.’s comments about “re-parenting” Black children, and why Sean Hannity suddenly found religion—but not accountability. It doesn’t stop there. DL unpacks Joe Rogan influencing policy from a podcast, Trump being called everything from the “chosen one” to the Antichrist, and a Defense Secretary quoting fake Bible verses like it’s real scripture. Add in AI replacing jobs, Palantir pushing mandatory service, and a system that feels like it’s breaking in real time—and the question becomes: is this dysfunction… or design?

On this episode of Uncertain with DL Hughley, DL breaks down Trump’s viral “Fake Jesus” moment—and why MAGA drawing the line at a cartoon says everything about where we are right now. DL gets into what Jesus actually looked like, what he actually stood for, and why Trump couldn’t be further from either. Then the conversation takes a serious turn. DL dives into the escalating conflict with Iran—why this isn’t Iraq or Afghanistan, how American hubris keeps putting us in the same situations, and what’s really at stake with the Strait of Hormuz, fertilizer shortages, and global food supply. And it only gets crazier from there… From viral “Lego” propaganda videos getting banned, to JD Vance lecturing the Pope on scripture, to the growing list of political hypocrisy—DL breaks down what’s really happening behind the headlines. Plus: Trump at a UFC fight during global tension The “DoorDash grandma” White House moment The Eric Swalwell controversy vs. Trump’s inner circle Why 80% of American women say they’d rather run into a bear than a man No filter.

In this episode we break down Donald Trump’s shocking Easter meltdown and the escalating conflict with Iran—including the threat that stunned the world and the fragile ceasefire that followed. DL dives into what the U.S. actually gained (or didn’t), the dangerous rise of misinformation, and why America might be looking more like a rogue nation than a global leader. We also get into Tucker Carlson calling out Trump, the controversy around not swearing in on the Bible, and what that says about power, religion, and accountability. Plus, Megan Kelly’s wild comments, the growing divide within MAGA, and why some Democrats are finally pushing back. DL breaks down Stephen A. Smith’s latest takes, the dangers of political distraction, and how media personalities shape public perception. We also talk Kanye’s continued fallout, cancel culture vs. accountability, and why some audiences forgive while others never forget. Plus: military spending vs. everyday Americans, Fox News’ rhetoric on homelessness, and why empathy seems to be disappearing from public discourse. And of course—DL keeps it real on everything from Chick-fil-A boycotts to Rob Schneider catching strays.
