    This week on Brilliant Idiots, Andrew Schulz and Charlamagne tha God dive into everything from WWE run-ins with the Giants O-line, parenting confessions, breastfeeding myths, and Taylor’s (She’s back) whole journey into new-mom life. And of course, it wouldn’t be Brilliant Idiots without spiraling into aliens, dreams, Asian extraterrestrials, automated barber machines, colonoscopies, nutty childhood moments (literally), and why Thanksgiving might be the most Native-American-ass holiday ever. Schulz and Charlamagne debate the Three Body Problem, the truth about Epstein, politics, conspiracies, and why “Quiet Piggy” might be the funniest political nickname Trump ever dropped. Plus, barbershop culture, massages, and the undeniable stress-release powers of a tiny Asian man's hands. Yes… really. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠ 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God ⁠Pre Order⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel ⁠Order Link⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley ⁠Order Link⁠ No Holes Barred -Mandi B & Weezy WTF ⁠Order Link⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks By Charlamagne Tha God ⁠Order Link⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz ⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" ⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    In this episode of Brilliant idiots , Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz bounce around a ton of wild, timely, and thought-provoking topics, everything from what it’s like for a comedian to get back on stage, to navigating friendships when politics get… messy. The crew breaks down the latest government shutdown drama, how it hits federal workers, and what it means for healthcare, SNAP benefits, and the everyday people caught in the middle. We also get into the big question: what responsibility do billionaires and corporations actually have in moments like this? We also divie straight into the chaos surrounding the newly released Epstein emails and the political firestorm they’ve kicked up. From online rumors influencing mainstream media to debates over immigration, drug policy, and even whether military crackdowns on cartels cross legal or moral lines, nothing is off limits. We also unpack the outrage over White House renovations, the housing affordability crisis, and the bigger question of what government should actually do for people.

    Nov 7 2025
    This week on Brilliant idiots, Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz dive into the New York mayoral election, the rise of Zoran Mamdani, and what politics looks like when the internet and real-life stress (like rent and $12 eggs) collide. We’re talking identity politics, affordability, NYPD beef, ICE, socialism vs. capitalism, Trump-game strategy, and whether “being in the club” disqualifies you from public office. Plus, Curtis Sliwa ghosting podcasts, politicians ducking platforms, and the art of winning just by being relatable. It’s jokes, heated debates, wild analogies, and some painfully honest NYC reality checks. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠ 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God ⁠Pre Order⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel ⁠Order Link⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley ⁠Order Link⁠ No Holes Barred -Mandi B & Weezy WTF ⁠Order Link⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks By Charlamagne Tha God ⁠Order Link⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz ⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" ⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz are back with another wild episode of The Brilliant Idiots. The crew kicks off stereotyping each other (in the most Brilliant Idiots way possible), debating Jewish lawyers, doctors, AI, Hollywood, the Saudis buying the film industry, and why Jersey might actually be the future of entertainment. They get into politics, ICE raids in NYC, TikTok creating fake personalities, and how people swear they know your beliefs off a 30-second clip. Chris considers “activating his white privilege,” Charlamagne explains cheer dad life, and somehow Cam Newton fights a mascot. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠ 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God ⁠Pre Order⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel ⁠Order Link⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley ⁠Order Link⁠ No Holes Barred -Mandi B & Weezy WTF ⁠Order Link⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks By Charlamagne Tha God ⁠Order Link⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz ⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" ⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

They break down affordability, housing struggles, and what makes New York the most frustrating but still undefeatedcity in the world. From communism jokes to remembering “the rent is too damn high” guy, to debating whether LA, Atlanta, or Miami can really compete with the city’s culture, the conversation goes everywhere it’s not supposed to, as usual. If you love unfiltered opinions, loud laughs, and the type of honesty that HR departments hate, you’re in the right place.
