| Angela Rye Goes Off On Haley Stevens’ and Pastor Winans’ Betrayal | NLP Replay | 08 Nov 2026 | 00:08:19 | |
Now that election results are in, Haley Stevens’ decision to betray her party and endorse the MAGA candidate, Mike Rogers, for Michigan’s Senate seat is all-the-more laughable and confounding.
She endorsed Mike Rogers over Democrat Abdul El-Sayed at a Black church, the Perfecting Church led by pastor Marvin Winans. Y’all gotta stop letting them use our community as a prop!!
Angela Rye has some choice words for all involved…

| Who Actually Profits From the Gender War? | Cite Your Source | 07 Nov 2026 | 01:02:56 | |
Who really profits from the GENDER WARS? On this episode of Cite Your Source, Angela Rye investigates whether gender is being politicized as a distraction, the real history of non-binary identities, and if traditional gender roles still exist.
While data shows trans and non-binary people make up around 1.6% of the U.S. adult population, hundreds of millions of dollars are poured into culture-war messaging, political campaigns, and viral debates. With everyday issues like the economy, healthcare, and education topping national concerns, why has gender discourse taken center stage? Angela serves as resident fact-checker alongside an expert panel to separate manufactured outrage from reality, bringing the data, historical context, and receipts.

| The N-Word Debate | Cite Your Source | 31 Oct 2026 | 01:04:39 | |
In this episode of Cite Your Source with Angela Rye tackles the N-word debate head on and what it really means in 2026 -- Who gets to say it, who gets a pass, and who benefits from keeping the debate alive?
The word has been argued over for decades stemming from its racial disparagement roots and the conversation hasn’t gotten any simpler. Angela sits down with a panel of experts including Charlamagne Tha God, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, Delano Squires, and more to separate history from hot takes, and to ask whether the fight over the word is taking up space that could go towards bigger issues.

| Why Does Everybody Want to Say the N-Word? | Angela Rye SoloPod | 27 Oct 2026 | 00:29:21 | |
It’s in our music, our group chats, and some of our most painful memories. But familiarity hasn’t erased the history of the N-word or the weight it carries. Angela explores how a word used to degrade and terrorize Black people became, for some, an expression of familiarity, identity, and connection. What does reclaiming it actually mean? Does changing the ending change its impact? And why do so many people outside the Black community feel entitled to say it? It’s a conversation about language, power, and why who says it still matters.
Our guest is Dr. Hiram Smith, author of “Wassup, My Nigga Book.”

| Flock Cameras: Are We Trading Privacy for Safety? | Cite Your Source | 24 Oct 2026 | 00:57:59 | |
Are Flock Safety cameras keeping us safe, or is AI-powered mass surveillance stripping away our constitutional privacy rights? In this episode of Cite Your Source, Angela Rye investigates how automated license plate readers (ALPR) are tracking drivers across America, the history of government surveillance and COINTELPRO targeting Black communities, and whether public safety justifies a digital surveillance state.
Together we explore who controls our data, unauthorized police searches, racial profiling risks, and whether cities can hold surveillance tech companies accountable.

| Mississippi’s A.G. Says 1-Year-Old Shot by Police was Justified | Angela Rye SoloPod | 20 Oct 2026 | 00:15:41 | |
Mississippi’s attorney general, Lynn Fitch, and her office have cleared the Senatobia police of wrongdoing after one of their officers shot and killed a 1-year-old in a Walmart Parking lot last summer.
The A.G.’s office said the use of force was “justified” since the officer felt threatened, alleging that the child’s mother was in a vehicle driving toward them. The Senatobia police have not released any footage from the event.

| Will We Ever Find Out What Happened to Nolan Wells? | MiniPod | 25 Sep 2026 | 00:40:27 | |
A Grand Jury has decided that there is no evidence of criminal wrongdoing in the Nolan Wells case, meaning there will not be a state-led investigation into his death.
In response, the Wells family and their attorneys have released new evidence, which shows that the Grand Jury’s ruling is nothing short of malpractice.
Nolan Wells was the 18-year-old who drowned off the coast of Mississippi while hanging out with his all-white friend group on 4th of July.

Chris Brown was honored with a congressional record at a concert in Dallas by Rep Jasmine Crockett and Texas State Rep Venton Jones. It has become a debacle after outraged victims of domestic abuse spoke out against Mr. Brown, who infamously beat Rihanna and other romantic partners. Rep Jones has apologized while Crockett is standing on business–this is an excellent moment to educate about OPTICS (and talk about who deserves forgiveness).

| Millions Removed From the Voter Rolls. Are You Still Registered? | Angela Rye SoloPod | 15 Sep 2026 | 00:44:50 | |
Millions of voter registrations have been removed from the rolls in Florida and South Carolina since 2022. In Florida, more than 2.3 million registrations were removed between 2022 and July 2026. In South Carolina, nearly 1.2 million registrations were removed between 2022 and 2025.
We’ll be joined by Chanae Jackson, Organizing Director for Florida For All, to discuss voter-roll removals in Florida and South Carolina, and what voters should know about maintaining their registration.
Christina Cue from the ACLU also joins us to discuss the voter-roll purges in South Carolina.
And we’ll be joined by Congressman Bennie Thompson, Chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Institute, to discuss the CBC Institute’s Go Vote Initiative and its efforts to increase voter engagement and participation. LINKS & RESOURCES

| Who is Telling the Truth about 9/11? Mamdani v. Giuliani | 10 Sep 2026 | 00:59:27 | |
9/11’s 25th anniversary should be about the victims, their families, and reflecting on an event that altered the course of our history.
Of course, Trump is using the anniversary to aggrandize himself, and Republicans–especially former NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani–are furious at NYC’s current mayor Mamdani for attending the 9/11 memorial because Mamdani is muslim.
Mamdani just released a report showing that NYC officials lied about how many toxins were left in the air following the collapse of the twin towers, toxins which killed thousands of people. No wonder Giuliani is so mad.

Rula Jebreal, Palestinian activist, called Rep. Hakeem Jeffries an "AIPAC Monkey" on a podcast. Rula is a woman of color who apologized profusely, but when you say "monkey," everything else you say afterward can't be heard. Author and journalist, Michael Harriot, tells us what to do when allies trip up.

| Should Bipartisan Politics Die? | MiniPod | 04 Sep 2026 | 00:20:11 | |
Apparently, we’re The Ops for supporting bipartisan politics...
On last week’s show, NLP defended House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries after he met with Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. As a leader, you have to talk to the other side.
Many of y’all were calling NLP “bought and sold,” “AIPAC,” etc., and others had more serious critiques. We’ll respond to all.
