[un]phased is unedited and unfiltered allowing listeners to journey with the co-hosts as they discuss difficult topics
In this episode of [un]phased unedited, we examine "Diaspora Wars," the tensions that surface between African Americans, continental Africans, Caribbean immigrants, and other communities across the global Black diaspora.
We then move to the controversy surrounding a University of Maryland club tennis team email that included an altered version of the Maryland flag featuring r@cist imagery. We unpack the history of the image, the original artist's reaction to its recent use despite the passing of a decade, and the broader questions it raises about racism, symbolism, accountability, and the responsibilities that come with creating and circulating provocative imagery.
Finally, we turn to reports of a woman being assaulted at an October rally in Youngstown, Ohio while carrying a sign calling for the release of the Epstein files. As AI-generated images and misinformation spread online, we examine verified reporting, public reactions, and a difficult question: What happens when crowds become spectators to violence? We reflect on the moral obligations of bystanders when harm unfolds in plain sight.

Hustling Backwards
Every so often, we stumble upon a word that aligns seamlessly with current events. Today's vocabulary spotlight features doughty and slew as we recount the case of Christa Gail Pike following her recently botched ex*cution. Dr. Lisa and Dr. Shaunna will wrestle with broader questions regarding capital punishment in the U.S., including, what comes next in Pike's legal process, the emotional complexities experienced by co-victims, and religious/ethical debates regarding the de@th penalty.
Next, we encourage everyone to bookmark the SCOTUS docket. More than 60 cases are on the docket that will shape national policy on climate change, immigration, voting rights, f*rearms regulations, religious liberty, and parental rights. The October 2026 term is yet another of the Court's most consequential terms in recent years.
What do you think about the future of the d3ath penalty, and which Supreme Court case are you watching most closely this term? Share your thoughts and join the conversation.

Zero
What happens when a society believes that one group's gain must come at another group's expense?
In this episode of [un]phased unedited, Dr. Shaunna and Dr. Lisa explore the concept of the zero-sum game and the powerful ways it shapes American culture, policy, and public perception. From Heather McGhee's groundbreaking book, The Sum of Us to a recent advertising controversy involving Converse, they explore how challenged we are to manage "healthy heat" through important conversations.
