Episode 46 - One Button Left

  • Summary

  • YO!!! It's the return of Supadave! He returns, bringing his signature mix of sharp humor and unfiltered truth. From grandfatherhood to cultural ownership, from navigating white spaces to the weight of Black resilience, the discussion weaves through identity, respect, and the absurdities of everyday life. What happens when you’ve only got one button left? You hold on tight—until you don’t.

    The talk veers—sharp and unscripted—through the nuances of respect, identity, and the weight of being Black in spaces that don’t always make space. There's humor, plenty of it. A deep-dive into the delicate dance of culture: how much do we share, and how much do we guard? And somewhere in the mix, a bartender's ignorance, a misplaced comment at a bar, and the simmering reality of being the "only one" in the room.
