NYPTALKSHOW Podcast

Send us Fan Mail Start with a salute to Noble Drew Ali, then step aboard a vessel where character is the cargo and unity is the lifeline. We sit down with leaders and members of the Moorish Rite to unpack why this Freemasonic body embraces a nautical framework—seamanship, roles, and discipline—to shape better men, stronger families, and resilient communities. The sea isn’t just a metaphor; it’s a...

Send us Fan Mail A good story can lift us up—or mislead us. We take on the rising “Black Indigenous” claim head-on and lay out why identity built on myth weakens movements, while identity grounded in evidence strengthens community, strategy, and solidarity. From the jump, we connect biography to purpose: years of reading, organizing, and media work inform a tough but necessary breakdown of what th...

Send us Fan Mail Two flags on the screen. One claim that rattles the room. And a tour through decades of work that you can actually visit. We sit down with the man who calls himself the Son of Man to unpack why symbols matter, how scripture becomes instruction, and where belief shows up as brick, payroll, and service. We start with the visual language: quarter moons, a star for justice, and a unif...

Send us Fan Mail Your home can hold a quiet power, and it doesn’t take much to tap it. We sit down with priestess Ayaba Wynn to map out a simple, reliable way to build a sacred altar that supports real life: a white cloth, a clean glass of water, a candle, and your intention. From there, we show how to invite only good spirits, set respectful boundaries, and use daily practice to steady your mind...

Send us Fan Mail Empires rise and fall, but their ideas, songs, and symbols don’t vanish—they travel. We follow that movement across millennia: from predynastic Egypt’s ties to the Maghreb and the Levant, through Libyan pharaohs and Hyksos rulers, to the syncretic pantheon that linked Neith, Tanit, and Athena. Along the way, Greek thinkers studied in Egyptian temples, and their learning flowed bac...

Send us Fan Mail A label can erase a lineage—and a lineage can unlock a nation. We brought together two powerful voices, Minister Kevin Ali and Brother Cosmo El, to test the foundations of identity: is nationality a matter of bloodline and birthright under law, or a living nation established by divine decree that outlives borders and bureaucracies? What follows is a lucid, energetic exchange that...

Send us Fan Mail What if everything you’ve been told about Freemasonry’s roots is only part of the story? We trace the emergence of the Ancient Free Moorish Rite through the life and work of Dr. Clifford E. Hazel Bey, a Most Puissant Sovereign Grand Commander who spent decades unearthing the African and Moorish origins of the craft. His careful strategy—first allowing Moorish attire and identity w...

Send us Fan Mail What does it mean to refuse a holiday but still wish someone joy? We open with a disarming stance: fasting through the commercial frenzy of the season while respecting people who celebrate to honor Jesus. That thought—persuasion over pressure—becomes the spine of a wide-ranging conversation about faith, authority, and the purpose of a “New Nation of Islam.” Our guest argues that r...

Send us Fan Mail What happens when a nation is treated like an organization? We open the mic to a direct, documented challenge and walk through the fault lines between the Nation of Islam and the Final Call—where the split began, why it accelerated, and what it cost. From court filings and 501c3s to the removal of chairs and the disbanding of FOI and MGT, we trace how paperwork and policy reshaped...

Send us Fan Mail What if “student enrollment” isn’t a phrase from an old booklet but a call to re-educate a people for leadership? We sit with Minister Eric Muhammad to unpack the Supreme Wisdom lessons, why language like “Asiatic” stretches beyond continents, and how claims like maker, owner, and God of the universe demand disciplined study rather than hype. From the opening minutes, we set a stu...

Send us Fan Mail What if the labels you use every day quietly decide your legal status, your rights, and how institutions treat you? We take a clear-eyed walk through Act Six of the Moorish Science Temple of America’s Divine Constitution and Bylaws and dig into why nationality is more than a word. With Brother Cozmo El, we explore how terms like Negro, black, and colored became chattel identifiers...

Send us Fan Mail What does commitment look like when you strip away letters, titles, and ceremony? We sit down with a leader who claims the mantle of Son of Man and maps a membership path built on daily classes, steady practice, and a radical return to scripture as the supreme wisdom. No X, no dining out, no pork; one meal a day if you choose it. The frame is submission to truth, not pageantry—dis...

Send us Fan Mail A drumbeat can change the room—and if you listen closely, it can change how you see spirit, ancestry, and yourself. We sit down with Papa Mystique to unravel Haitian Vodou as a living science: the nations that shape energy, the rhythms that open doors, and the ethics that keep service grounded. From Flatbush roots and a grandmother mambo to time in Haitian lakou, this story reveal...

Send us Fan Mail History sounds different when you hear it from people who can name the teachers, show the paperwork, and walk you through the venues where outcomes actually change. We sit down with Dr. Alim El Bey and Chief Jelani Bey to break open Moorish identity, Washita lineage, and the legal frameworks that so often get flattened into memes or headlines. No shortcuts here—just credentials, c...

Send us Fan Mail Ever felt a room shift when someone throws up a sign? We follow that spark into a deeper current—how hand gestures, stars, crescents, and pyramids traveled from temples and texts into Chicago “nations” and LA streets, and what was lost when the meaning got stripped away. Mikey Fever sits down with Crip Jesus to chart a living archive he calls the Blue Bible, blending firsthand sto...

Send us Fan Mail A Harlem childhood can hold two truths at once: the sting of violence and the spark of genius. With Agyei Tyehimba, we trace how Sugar Hill bookstores, elders, and family stories forged a mind hungry for history—and how that hunger turned into real wins, from campus reforms to community institutions. IJ walks us through the leap from reading to organizing: photocopied flyers, door...

Send us Fan Mail What does a real journey from doubt to discipline look like when the stakes are your identity, your community, and your faith? We sit down with Brother Soul Magic to trace a path that starts in Baltimore, runs through the Army and a move to Georgia, and unfolds across study with the 12 Tribes in Trinidad, the Five Percent Nation, Moorish circles, and ultimately into Prince Hall Fr...

Send us Fan Mail The call to initiate rarely arrives as a gentle whisper. It shows up in a reading when health falters, legal trouble looms, or a deep restlessness refuses to quiet. We walk through that first doorway with X, a returning guest who speaks candidly about what Lukumi initiation actually requires: the blueprint revealed in Hand of Ifa, the real meaning of crowning, and the life changes...

Send us Fan Mail Words decide more than feelings; they decide standing. We dive into how a descriptive label like “black” replaced a national name like “Moor,” and why that shift still shapes rights, protections, and political leverage today. With Ron Brown LMT hosting, we trace the journey from etymology and scripture to treaties and constitutions, showing how names connect people to a nation—or...

Send us Fan Mail Rumors are loud; receipts are louder. We sat down with Jelani Bey to clear long-circulating claims about documents, dues, and disputes, then moved into the work that actually matters: building institutions that protect people, preserve knowledge, and create a future worth inheriting. No theatrics—names, dates, timestamps, and why this all ties back to autonomy. We walk through the...

Send us Fan Mail Think you know where Freemasonry began? We sit down with Grand Sheik Jelani Bey, a 32° York Rite Mason and longtime Moorish organizer, to map the trail most timelines skip: the living overlaps between lodge ritual and Moorish science, the Islamic fingerprints inside shrinedom, and the ancient mystery systems that predate England’s guild claims. This isn’t guesswork from the outsid...

Send us Fan Mail Ready to trade chaos for clarity? We sit down with Noble Cyriz EL to demystify hypnotherapy, connect it with CBT, and show how focused relaxation can help reshape stubborn habits, calm anxiety, and strengthen emotional control. No pendulums, no parlor tricks—just clear methods that blend physiology, psychology, and language to create change that lasts. We start with what trance re...

Send us Fan Mail The year winds down and the energy changes—cleansings get serious, prayers stretch longer, and choices at the crossroads carry more weight. We bring that reality into a vivid conversation where Tarot archetypes meet Orisha wisdom, not as a mashup gimmick, but as a respectful bridge between symbols and ceremony. From Elegba’s guidance through the Fool to the fierce momentum of Ogun...

Send us Fan Mail What if skepticism could sit in the front row while the cosmos holds the chalk? Ron invites Ros Mariah Bay to read his chart on air—Scorpio Sun, double Libra rising and Moon—and the result is a candid, concrete tour of elements, modalities, and houses that sounds less like mysticism and more like a user manual. We walk through how fixed water meets cardinal air, why a drive for fa...

Send us Fan Mail What if the story you learned about your first American ancestor isn’t the whole story? We go straight at the hardest questions: how did ships sustain hundreds of people for months at sea, why do the numbers for North America hover around 300,000, and where do DNA haplogroups and Paleoamerican finds like Lucia fit into the picture? We explore the claim that many Black families may...
