A classic clip of Malcolm X features him criticizing the use of entertainers—such as comedians, singers, and athletes—as political leaders for the black community. Malcolm X argues that these figures are often "puppets and clowns" set up by the white establishment to say what the establishment wants to hear. The hosts apply this critique to P. Diddy, noting that while they like him, they are wary of entertainers hijacking serious political narratives.
A historical recording of Malcolm X warns against white liberals who seek to lead or subsidize black organizations, labeling such leaders as "puppets" and "parrots."

The segment highlights the long-standing tension between organic grassroots leadership and endorsed institutional activists.
