Dickbert And A Cackle of Karens | Ep 181

Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now picking up streams in Vancouver. Thanks to everyone in Vancity who took the time to listen to the show and share in the love.

This week, Leon discusses his impending 50th birthday and shares how it’s a bittersweet weekend, but is thankful for more life and IPAs. Alaric is back to work on the set of Barnwood Builders in West Virginia. While he feels 20 in the mind, his knees are definitely feeling 50. Vin still hasn’t received his passport to go away and is hoping that it will be as easy as 1. 2…3.

Next, with This Week in Racism, we discuss the recent racist rant of Scott Adams, the creator of the cartoon strip Dilbert. What was he thinking to suggest that all Black people collectively are members of a hate group?

You’ll hear all of this and so much more on this episode of Decoding 40.

$BigMommaBucks | Ep 180

Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now picking up streams in Utah. Some of our listeners must have gone to the NBA All-Star game. Thanks to everyone in Salt Lake City who took the time to listen to the show and share in the love between events.

In this week’s episode, Vin catches Rick’s car flu and deals with a multitude of repairs. From brakes to tire issues it was one hell of a week. Alaric FINALLY gets his car back after 6 months but of course, the dealership couldn’t give it back without a few hiccups. Leon and his family take a walking tour with Inside Out Tours on the history of Africans in New York City specifically the Wall Street area. Apparently, City College owes L a refund, because he learned more in 2 hours than he did in 16 weeks.

We finish up with What’s the Scenario? This week we discuss what would you do if Grandma demanded money to babysit her grandkids.

Cuff It or Nah?! | Ep 179

Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now picking up streams in the Philippines. Thanks to everyone in Manila and Davao City who is taking the time to listen to the show and share in the love.

In this week’s Uber chronicles, Vin picks up Jared from Philly while playing some Rakim, and has a dope conversation about all that was sacred during the Golden Age of Hip Hop. Leon and the crew discuss Beyonce and the extremely high ticket prices which have completely priced them out of even thinking about going to a concert they had no intention of going to. Rick still doesn’t have his car back and the manager for the adjuster who is missing in action has picked up the ball and has the check sent to the body shop. Will this be the end of the saga? Tune in to find out.

Later, we talk about a bill that a democratic Massachusetts representative Carlos Gonzales proposed that would allow prisoners to donate an organ for a reduction in sentence. Is this reasonable legislation for inmates seeking to reduce their prison time or is a kidney, liver, or heart too steep a price to pay?

This World Needs An Enema | Ep 178

Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now picking up streams in Finland. Thanks to everyone in Helsinki who is taking the time to listen to the show and share in the love.

It’s Day 179 and Rick’s car saga continues. After talking to everyone at Geico, Subaru, and everyone in between, he still does not have his car back despite it being repaired. Leon has beef with vegans and how they attempt to fool the masses with their faux products. Vin has been noticing the stark differences in neighborhoods as he drives UBER. The poor get poorer and the rich her richer. Is it time to reset the world?

Next, we discuss whether or not it’s possible for a global reset to occur without an extinction-level event. Will society wake up soon enough to change its destructive ways or whatever Denzel said in the Book of Eli, or are the elite just buying time until their spaceships are ready?

You’ll hear all of this and so much more on this episode of Decoding 40.

Dude, Where's My Car? | Ep 176

Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now streaming in four countries in Africa! Thanks to everyone in the Motherland who is taking the time to listen to the show and share in the love.

This week the guys check in with the latest in their lives and the cost of living going through the roof. Are you feeling the pinch or is it just us? From loud patrons, lattes with too much mocha, and a family game night that goes bad for his wife and sons, Leon checks in with the latest in his daily life. Alaric gives the latest on his car issues. The car is repaired, but where is it exactly? And, why won’t they return it to him? Is it time to take things up a notch? Vin gives the latest in his Uber adventures with some young, sorority riders who are loud and obnoxious. He also talks about the strategy for maximizing his time on the road. And, do you tip your Uber drivers? If not, you may want to reconsider after this show.

The guys also talk about how Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is remixed in our current era of political correctness. This Week in Racism introduces us to a secretary with a lack of judgment and sends a racist text insulting the Dr. King holiday by referring it to N*gg*r Day. Racism is still alive, they’re just texting it now.
