Dogs in Suits | EP. 35 | The DCMWG Show

This episode kicks off with some behind the scenes foolishness between Mona and the DCMWG Team, this time, including Conehead!

Mona kicks things off by addressing the comments surrounding her take on Chrisean Rock and CPS, and she’s doubling down (1:55)! She recaps her Long Beach show (6:30) before diving into Chrisean and Blueface’s engagement and their awkward double date (9:40). Next, she discusses the violence surrounding Zeus Network’s Baddies and the tragic death of a security guard (11:55), followed by a hilarious critique of UK soul food with Phelps (14:45). They react to newly released bodycam footage involving a six-year-old who shot his teacher (16:30), the disturbing Sandra Birchmore case and troubling police culture (22:15). Then it’s Snaggletooth, the massive 800-pound alligator (29:15), Sheek Louch meeting the Jackson 5 (33:00), Atlanta’s eviction crisis (35:15), and Philly’s ARP gang targeting alleged predators (36:45). Mona also covers Philly’s parallel parking competition (39:20), a round of What Would Mona Do? (45:05), a viral security officer assault (47:55), an American Airlines passenger’s mid-flight inappropriate behavior (51:15), and closes with some interesting developments involving ChatGPT and bots (53:15).

This week, Mona kicks things off with a conversation about actor Da’Vinchi’s recent appearance on Cam Newton’s podcast, where his comments about Black Americans and the broader Black diaspora spark a deeper discussion about stereotypes, cultural divides, and the perception that Black Americans are lazy or somehow less accomplished than other groups within the diaspora (1:10). The conversation then shifts to Da’Vinchi’s perspective on why BMF came to an end (23:10) before Mona gets into the latest reports surrounding Diddy’s life behind bars, including alleged fights, special treatment, and what his day-to-day experience in prison has reportedly been like (27:00). Next, she turns to Dwight Howard and his estranged wife, who says the two have reconciled despite previously making serious allegations about his behavior and alleged drug use (35:54). From there, Mona discusses the situation involving Chrisean Rock and Blueface after someone reportedly contacted CPS in an attempt to have their son, Chrisean Jr., removed from Chrisean’s care (37:40)—a conversation that leads Mona to share her own experience with the SPCA being called on her (46:00) and a much larger discussion about the realities of the foster care system (47:55), the trauma children can experience within it, and why removing a child from their home doesn’t automatically guarantee them a better life. She then gets into the Christa Pike case and the controversy surrounding her failed execution (48:50) before discussing B.O.G. Vonnie and producer Mykel, who was reportedly arrested following allegations that he knowingly exposed her to HIV (55:40). Mona also weighs in on the latest tragedy connected to Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the reported death of her husband (1:02:15), before a conversation about protecting yourself at home leads into what Mona says she would do if an intruder ever entered hers (1:06:50). Next up is Chris Rock’s revelation about a friend who spent nearly 19 years in prison before being exonerated and Rock’s personal rule about not paying legal fees for incarcerated friends (1:13:35). Then it’s Kai Cenat and Gorgeous Doll, whose recent allegations include a claim that she received $200,000 from Kai to terminate a pregnancy involving twins (1:17:50). Mona follows that with Charleston White’s latest arrest (1:20:40) before a special round of What Would Damona Do? Featuring a story from the podcast Our2Gens (1:26:15). To close out the episode, she leaves the women listening with an important warning about recognizing red flags before it’s too late (1:34:06).

This week on DCMWG, Mona opens the show by checking in with the cousins and responding to some of their recent thoughts on guests joining the podcast (0:55). From there, she gets into Shaquille O’Neal’s latest honorary law enforcement badge and his long-running collection of honorary titles from departments across the country (3:20). Next up, Nicki Minaj’s conversation with Lara Trump sparks a discussion about the rapper’s increasingly vocal embrace of Republican politics (9:35). Mona then turns to streamer Reggie and a deeply personal viral moment that divided the internet, leading to a broader conversation about vulnerability, trauma, and the space Black men have to openly share their experiences (13:15). Back in Philly, rapper Kur finds himself in a messy dispute over a paid feature (21:45), before Mona breaks down the latest developments surrounding the Cornell Seven and the possibility of charges stemming from a grand jury investigation (30:05). She also gets into the Philadelphia teacher accused of falsely presenting herself as Black and Palestinian for years (39:00), followed by the latest on Sidney Starr (43:50). Things then move to podcast drama as JBP’s Queenz Flip and former co-host Rory cross paths at Girls Love Karaoke, resulting in an altercation that quickly became a topic online (45:41). Mona and Phelps switch gears with a debate over AI, its growing influence, and what the technology could mean for society moving forward (51:15), before discussing a new Florida law and how publicly claiming gang affiliations online could potentially come back to haunt you (55:15). Later, Mona gets into Kwanzaa and the very different ways her family and Zack’s family grew up celebrating the holiday (56:45). She wraps the episode with upcoming show dates before closing things out with Nail Cam (1:00:35).
