?Conspiracy theories mixed with culture and comedy. My Momma Told Me is a podcast that explores the wild conspiracy theories that have been passed down in Black communities. In each episode the comedian hosts — Langston Kerman and David Gborie — feature a guest who brings their own experiences and theories to the conversation.
The topics are bizarre. Both hosts have a sharp wit and a natural ability to keep conversations engaging and hilarious. The theories discussed are also quite interesting, ranging from “is the government putting chemicals in our food to make us docile?” to “are black people actually aliens?” Regardless of the topic at hand, the conversations always spike a mix of curiosity and comedy.
There’s a deeper meaning behind the discussions. Despite the humor, the podcast also discusses the societal roots behind these theories — making it an exploration of culture and identity. To finish off their discussions, the hosts might debunk the myth, reinforce the suspicions, or even go on the tangent without coming to a logical conclusion.
WHERE TO LISTEN- You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and iHeart.
