Welcome back to State of the Culture Pt 2 (Continuation) 🎙️In this one, Ern & Iso bounce all over the place the way only we can — from the “loneliness epidemic” and how social media messes with people’s heads, to why comparing your life to influencer highlights will have you depressed for no reason.Then we pivot into real industry talk: podcasting ain’t dying, big business just wants control. We break down how platforms pick who they want to push, why “blackballing” is real, and why creators who are actually a threat get slowed down, demonetized, or targeted.And if you’re chasing deals? This episode is for you. We get into contracts, desperation, and why some artists sign “raping you records” deals… then act shocked when the deal does exactly what it said it would do.

In State of the Culture Pt. 1, the dynamic duo is back setting the tone and talking directly to the people. The conversation kicks off with gratitude for the listeners and a breakdown of why the show continues to grow—evergreen content over momentary trends. From reflecting on the success of the Diddy documentary breakdown to explaining why older episodes resurface and trend, Ern and Iso dig into what longevity in podcasting really looks like.
The episode moves into a thoughtful discussion on public scrutiny, social media judgment, and accountability, using real-world examples to explore how visibility comes with both opportunity and backlash. The duo also touches on family, boundaries, and how the internet has changed the way people feel entitled to comment on others’ lives.
Later, the conversation lightens up with talk about Stranger Things, binge culture, and why watching something in real time versus years later creates completely different experiences. The episode wraps with Ern revisiting his thoughts on the Nas & DJ Premier album “Light Years”, clarifying his stance and engaging with listener feedback.
As promised, this one is all over the place—but in the best way. Real talk, culture, music, media, and honest perspective all rolled into one.

In “Sean Combs: The Reckoning Pt 3 — Closing Remarks”, Ern & Iso wrap up the entire Diddy discussion with their final thoughts and a bigger convo about accountability, “trickle-down” success, and why public opinion flips depending on who’s on the hot seat.
They break down why it feels like everybody wants one person to carry the whole blame, even though whole teams, execs, and insiders benefited when things were good. They also talk about the jury outrage, the Cassie situation, and why people often prefer the more entertaining lie over the truth. From there, the conversation expands into the ugly realities of the music business: bad contracts, 360 deals, “opportunity” vs fair pay, and why artists keep signing anyway.
They close with a real message: fame can make people accept deals and compromises they’ll regret later, and in the end—knowledge, lawyers, and accountability matter.
Tap in, and let us know in the comments: is the culture being consistent… or just picking sides?

In Part 2 of “Church of the Red Pill,” Ern and Iso go deeper into the mindset behind toxic male content that’s been rising online. In the first episode, they broke down how red pill creators damage younger men by feeding them fear, bitterness, and anger toward women.
Now we ask a different question: Why is this content SO popular?
Why does so much of this messaging connect with young men who feel lost, unseen, pressured, or rejected? Why does the algorithm push it? Why does it feel empowering at first but leave men more hurt in the long run?
In this episode, Ern and Iso explore:
Why young men feel invisible in today’s world
The father-figure void that online creators step into
The pressure of modern dating and social media
Why “confidence over conversation” pulls men into extremes
How the algorithm traps men in negativity
Why the red pill feels like a brotherhood — even when it’s harmful
How pain, rejection, and insecurity make toxic content feel comforting
What young men are REALLY searching for
And how to build healthier perspectives around love and manhood
This episode isn’t about attacking men — it’s about understanding them, and showing a path to self-worth, accountability, and real connection.
If you know a young man who spends hours watching red pill content, this episode may help explain WHY… and how to lead him toward something better.
✊🏾 We’re not knocking men — we’re rebuilding them.

In this episode, Ern and Iso dive into the world of “Red Pill” content — the so-called safe haven for men online. They break down how, while some parts claim to help men, a lot of it actually hurts men more than it helps. The duo speak on how Red Pill culture has men obsessing over the worst parts of women instead of working on themselves, their goals, and their purpose.
Ern and Iso ask the uncomfortable questions:
🔥 Is Red Pill teaching men to fear women instead of grow?
🔥 Why do so many men use it as an escape instead of leveling up?
🔥 Has the community become more about anger than improvement?
🔥 And who is REALLY benefitting from this content?
This is a conversation that men need — honest, balanced, and rooted in real life, not internet fantasy.
Watch, comment, and let us know your thoughts.
