Rob Franklin

Josh Johnson kicks off his first day behind the host desk with possible new intel from Ghislaine Maxwell and Trump's latest batch of Epstein distractions: a 2016 Obama conspiracy, releasing the MLK files, and even admitting that he's not a medical marvel. Plus, you won't believe the 100% real Epstein bombshells that Grace Kuhlenschmidt found in the MLK files. Charlamagne Tha God unpacks the 79-year-old Trump's recent memory loss, agitation, inappropriate behavior, confusion, and disorientation, all of which just so happen to be symptoms of dementia. Fiction and poetry writer Rob Franklin sits down with Josh Johnson to discuss his critically acclaimed debut novel, "Great Black Hope." They talk about exploring respectability politics through the main character, Smith, the tension between race and class in the justice system, and how not knowing your height is true tall privilege.
