ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to Heads of State, your new favorite podcast where New York energy meets DMV flavor. Join Hugh, Shaun, and Dawud for a show that's less like a formal political summit and more like that group chat with your boys that stays buzzing 24/7. We’re all about great laughs, zero filters, and the kind of deep, veteran respect that only comes from years of arguing over sports, hip-hop, and the culture.
We aren't here for safe, boring consensus takes. Instead, you're getting a front-row seat to three lifelong friends holding court on the stuff that actually matters. Whether we’re dissecting a massive corporate marketing failure, losing our minds over historical GOAT logic, or trying to agree on the last truly perfect hip-hop masterpiece, if it moves the culture, we’re talking about it—and having a blast doing it.
