Bigger Than The Stage

St. Louis comedian Enzo Nitti is on the podcast and we have a great time! We talk about squatters, traveling, and habit stacking.

For the first hour, we have St. Louis comedian Akhtab Muhammad on. We talk about the Muslim faith, staying true to yourself, and our last meals.

We ain't have no headphones, so apologies if the audio mixing is off. ANYWAY, we talk about shouting at church, plan our funerals, and our busy weekends.

We get pretty deep pretty early. We talk about religion, life lessons, and there's even a motivational speech at the end.

Technology was working against us, but still we rise. We talk about being angry, Ziploc bags, and what we've learned about ourselves this year.

We're back with a silly episode! We talk about mobile ads, Cracker Barrel, and sketches.

Taji is only human so you'll miss the first two minutes of the episode. We intro and chat about the weather so if you read this you're all caught up! We talk about multiple personalities while traveling, Project Runway, and naps before shows.

We start off with childhood trauma, then we get into Stevie Wonder's tour, and we bring back the list of Black people and their chicken orders! Also at the end, Shante gets her technicolor coat by interpreting Taji's dreams.

We're live and on that foolishness. We talk about the recent celebrity deaths, what Heaven looks like, and food recalls.

Funny Bone's 2026 Funniest in St. Louis winner Jennie Weaver is in the building! We talk about comedy competitions, online scammers, and Spiderman. Which version is your favorite?

Shante brings gifts to the studio (take a guess whose face is on the game). We talk about Smokie Robinson, The Odyssey, and car troubles.

We're in the studio talking about a lot of different things. We talk about sandwiches, voting (please go vote!), and give Taji her flowers a lil bit.

*TRIGGER WARNING: mentioning suicide* St. Louis made movie director Travis Haughton is in the building with us and we have a great time. We talk about his new film Caratico, his inspiration behind his films, and Shante gets one step closer to knowing Michael B. Jordan.

We talk about a whole bunch of stuff. Taji featured at a club for the first time. Shante doesn't need therapy as frequently. Papa Bear and his affair with Goldilocks.

The two of us are surviving off of maybe three hours of sleep combined, so bear with us. We tried to get a grip on the conversation, but there's a reason why the episode is called grip-less. It is a silly episode, though! So I do recommend you listen.

We're back (no kids in the background, either) and we're talking about the trips we took last weekend. Taji was in Chicago and Shante was in LA and we talk about it. We also talk about Fetty Wap and learning things about ourselves.

From the way of St. Louis, New York's Reggie Kush is in the building with us. He's a comedian, rapper, and battle rapper. We talk about the intricacies of battle rap, his comedy journey, and making content. (also there's a kid's summer camp going on behind us while we record)

It's Juneteenth Eve! Leave some cornbread (with the honey butter) out for Harriet Tubman tonight! Taji and Shante talk about our favorite things about being Black, Buddhism, and lactose intolerance.

We are in the booth today talking about Scary Movie 6. Well, Shante's talking about it, Taji didn't see it. Then we talk about high school reunions and people lying to Taji.

Maybe our most controversial episode yet? Listen and tell us. Tommy Dangerfield is with us and we have a BALL! We talk about social media, baby mamas, and Pop The Balloon. We get serious and silly. It's a great time.

We're back in the booth this week to talk about a lot of things. Topics range from heroes versus villains to how we gone change when we get money. AND we bring back our ye olde tradition of naming Black historical figures and their chicken orders.

DLC is back in the building with us! When the cousins get together, we clown a lil bit, LITERALLY. He brings us gifts again and we talk about bald men, yogurt yearners, and streaming on YouTube.

Taji and Shante Love are in the studio, and we're in a silly goofy mood. We talk about real life and summer and telling yourself to #getoverit.

Comedian Will O'Donnell (willythrillycomedy) is in the booth with us. We talk about doing comedy, embracing cringe, and controversial opinions. DO IT RIGHT NOW! Stop thinking about it!!! Thinking will keep you from taking action (within reason, of course). Your mom's boyfriend's favorite comedian said so.

We have our good friend IAmKeysh back in the booth with us. What a great way to end National Poetry Month. We talk poetry, Shante's birthday, and the power of friendship.
