38: You Ain't Binary

Kanye West, Free Thinking and Political Independence

West argues that his parents fought for the right to have an opinion, not the right to vote for whoever white liberals dictate. The hosts discuss the concept of the "free-thinking" black man and how Biden's comments serve as a catalyst for people to question traditional party loyalty.

13: Deconstructing Kanye

Kanye West on White Liberals and Voting

Kanye West argues that his parents, who were involved in the Black Panther movement and sit-ins, fought for the right to have an opinion, not the obligation to vote for whoever white liberals suggest. During an exchange with James Corden, West pushed back against the idea that his race or religion should dictate his political choices. The hosts reflect on how predicting Trump's victory led to their own audience losses and social penalties.
