It was a pretty full week for the culture. We lost the beautiful Kim Porter, a pastor did or didn’t lose his mind and our own Kenny Reeves got to sit down with a cultural icon. We also got a lot of new music this weekend and learned about the extracurricular talents of another artist. We want to know how y’all feel about the topics too!! Join in on the conversation via our comments section or on social media!!

LOVE TALK

November 12, 2018 15:01 - 51 minutes - 54.3 MB

It was a very exciting weekend for the Good Culture family and there was no better way to cap it off than welcoming in a very special guest.

FULL CIRCLE II

November 05, 2018 15:00 - 1 hour - 82.7 MB

So we’re back from homecoming break and back on our bullshit. This episode is pretty damn wild.

FIFTY

October 22, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 103 MB

Fifty is a pretty good thing no matter where you apply it. Buying a soda, field goals, age, money, podcasts. Yeah we said podcasts. You are now listening to a podcast that’s old enough to grill at the family reunion. We’re also old enough to leave Thanksgiving whenever we feel like it. In all seriousness, the GC+ Podcast is appreciative of how far we’ve come. We’re excited about where we are going to go. The good people have been family the whole time and we wouldn’t change that for nothin’....

FULL CIRCLE

October 15, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 82 MB

On this episode we discuss a big weekend in music centered around the releases of Quavo, Ella Mai and Usher. We also get into a fool sitting in the lap of a bigger fool. Also, we got Episode 2 of “The Shop” featuring Drake. Keep positive energy, good people.

UNSCRIPTED

October 08, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 83.8 MB

This is what happens when one of us is drunk, one of us is on a high and one of us is trying to stay unwashed. And all of this is without a script.

Just when you think your past is over, here it comes stumbling back through the door. How do y’all deal with a case of the ex? Also, we got y’all covered on your fair hoppin’. There’s levels to this, know how to play the field. Don’t do Fletcher’s with a cotton candy date.

TALK SHIT, GET HIT

September 10, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 70.8 MB

Last week was mad real. We got cops killing people enjoying the privacy of their own home and the rap game lost a super talent. Cardi tried to harm Nicki, but walked away with a knot upside her own forehead. That's a lot to digest and we still got our jokes off with another set of rankings for y'all.

OH, SO Y'ALL BYKE BYKE??!!

September 04, 2018 14:00 - 1 hour - 82 MB

Yeah we byke byke. We choppin’ it up on white rapper complexes, the Dallas chicken trinity and Florida man (in a good way, surprisingly). We also get into culture tv and discuss what’s going on with the Issas and Ghosts of the world. Kanye is still Ye’in, Bron still goatin’ and we’re still the best start to your workweek.

Where The Fv*k Y’all Been, Fam?

August 27, 2018 13:21 - 102 MB

That’s the question we’ve been hearing this whole time. We explain our brief (by brief we mean at least it wasn’t a year) hiatus and get byke to this culture shit. We had a lot to unpack in this one because we missed being on wax, but the culture turnin’ up a little bit now and that’s what we’re here for. Nicki, Astroworld, Insecure, Power, interracial dating (insert flame emoji for this discussion), we really comin’ out hard for the good people. Two stripes!

ACCORDING TO QUINCY JONES

February 12, 2018 15:00 - 51 minutes - 58.8 MB

According to the Good Culture Podcast crew, Quincy Jones' interview needed to be discussed on wax. What's true? What's false? Where are his meds? Is he a snitchin ass bitch? While we can't answer all of those, we do have answers for the following: Is there Trappin in Wakanda? Yes Is Bangers & Brunch making a big return to Dallas? Fuckin right.

It was time. New host, same energy, more life. It was a weekend dedicated to those at the top of their craft displaying that they should never be doubted. If you doubted that we'd be back, you were wrong. If you doubted that the Baddie Godmother would expand her brand into podcasting, you were wrong. If you doubted that we'd talk our shit in this episode, you were wrong. It's scary hours for the haters. 2018 is going to be powerful.

We’ve got the lovely Chan-Lo, Chief of Chic at cnkdaily.com (@CNKdaily), in the studio for Episode 31 and this recording was undoubtedly one of the most fun times we’ve been behind these microphones.

November 07, 2016 15:00 - 1 hour - 73.6 MB

An influential Southern rapper once said, "If you make it to see 25 ni**a you a OG." So did you really think we were gonna stop at 24?

It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you. But unlike Rakim, Dallas has given us plenty of dope in the time we've been away. The culture is moving forward in the city.

Dallas is looking for revenge, all summer sixteen.

GOOD CULTURE BECOMES A TRIO

March 07, 2016 16:12 - 1 hour - 69.5 MB

We can no longer refer to Good Culture as the fellas. We can be called the squad, the team, the trio, the clique but not the fellas. We're proud to bring on our third host Lauren aka @theellemac, as she adds a dope, unfiltered and energetic perspective. We took this episode as an opportunity to kick back and chop it up.
