Resumen del Editor

From Charlamagne Tha God, multi-hyphenate mogul, host of the morning radio phenomenon The Breakfast Club, and founder and CEO of iHeartRadio’s Black Effect Podcast Network, a rundown on how small talk from small minds have taken over our world, and the BIG conversations needed to climb our way back.

For fourteen years, Charlamagne Tha God has been cohost of iHeartRadio’s nationally syndicated morning radio show The Breakfast Club and has proven his power as a culture mover and thought leader, by being his completely authentic self on-air, from his famous “You ain't black” moment with President Biden, to heartfelt chats with cultural icons like Sean “Jay-Z” Carter and Judy Blume, to viral classics with Kamala Harris and Soulja Boy, his incredible reach and impact on the pulse of America continues to grow.

In his new book, Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks, Charlamagne takes full command of his new perch, broadening his scope and embracing his life roles as a cultural curator, social commentator, job-creator, mental health advocate, and Girl Dad in ways we’ve never seen before. In his signature irreverent style, he looks at the world through his own lens, concluding that our divisions, our unhappiness, and our dissatisfactions stem from our failure to have meaningful conversations with each other. With lessons pulled from his past, and an eye on the future, Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks makes us laugh, cry, and think as Charlamagne’s shares his thoughts on growth, empowerment, and evolution in our fast-changing world. In short—it’s time to stop lying to each other, and ourselves.

Fame, money, social media, politics, hip-hop culture, and fatherhood, he takes it all on here. In the process, Charlamagne reveals more about himself than we’ve ever seen before. This master of seeing through the BS even calls it on himself, as he delivers his most insightful and heartfelt work yet—his call to stop the insanity while we still can.

Charla I don't know if you will read this review but thank you so much for giving me more to think about. I'm from a small town and have a always felt differently and thought differently than those around me. listening to your story especially this one has let me know I'm not alone and there is so much more out here to do and talk about than what people try and give us. I listened to this book and have created a few journal prompts from it and plan to share them in my different groups. Thank you so much for being a true voice for a small town girl!!! 🤎🖤🤎🖤🤎

I have been fortunate to watch this man grow and now give back. Thank you. I also got a signed copy of the book to go with this audio version. Love it

Let's Discuss

The ability to get straight to the point is made evidently clear by this book. Social media and other outlets have made small talk so prevalent in our day to day communications.
The read of this book is a great reframe out things that are more important to focus on.

Love C tha God!

Loved this book! Took the day off to listen and enjoy. Another NYBS and healing book for the culture! Proud of YOU!

I enjoyed how the book was titled.

Any time Charlemagne drops a book, I scoop it up. I always enjoy it and appreciate the growth he shares. This particular book is sharing knowledge that we all need to hear. We spend to much time on shit that doesn't matter,and somebody has to let folks know.

The honesty

I liked the real world application, will improve my daily interactions, learned something new about myself. Going to find me a tree.
