The Jigsaw

What Stays In This House

“What happens in this house stays in this house” Although this statement can be problematic, at the core of this ideology is a culture of not airing family business to those who don’t deserve to see what’s going on in the house. However, do people still hold to this idea?

 

On this episode of the Jigsaw, Josh and Bryan discuss discretion and protecting privacy in relationships. Also, find out what Josh considers what Brave spaces are, and why Hartsfield Jackson’s days are numbered.

Niggas In Paris

Why do you think the song N*ggas in Paris is called N*ggas? Because n*ggas was in Paris!! Often, nobody knows what Kanye West means, but it’s provocative. It gets the people going. However, it might make sense after Bryan’s recent trip to Paris.

 

On this episode of the Jigsaw, Josh & Bryan discuss their international travel experiences, how American Black Culture can be felt abroad, and what it’s like to be seen and heard in foreign spaces. Also, we got an update on a situation that can potentially ruin a longtime friendship.

The Gospel of Kirk Franklin

Who am I whole when I only know me broken? The words of Kirk DeWayne Franklin. We all have life experiences. These experiences make us who we are. However, how do we deal with the folks around us who have caused the trauma fail to acknowledge it? What do you do when the folks you want the most reject you? 

On this episode of The Jigsaw Podcast, Joshua and Bryan unpack the Kirk Franklin documentary and discuss the good, the bad, and the Sandra of it all. Also, in a special billboard, the guys breakdown Diddy’s Love Album. Do we finally have an album or song of the year?

Why You Mad?

We all get mad, but the internet takes it to another level when they are behind a phone or computer screen. Like, fam, what is your problem?!

 

On this episode of The Jigsaw, Bryan and Josh dig into some of the reasons they believe thrive in negativity and offer ways for people to thrive in positivity. Choosing joy over finding the worst in everything costs very little. Like, y'all were really mad at Madame VP Kamala Harris for being a Black woman dancing to hip-hop at a party she hosted. Do you hear how that sounds? Dumb.

It Was All A Dream

A prominent philosopher, community organizer, social activist, miracle worker, natural healer, and martyr named Jesus often spoke about having childlike faith and the ability to believe in the impossible, making it a possibility. When did we stop believing we could be astronauts? When did make-believe turn into disbelief? 

 

On this episode of the Jigsaw, Josh and Bryan discuss the essence of dreaming big, the space between reality and our dreams, and what it means to dream big dreams again. Take a seat and press play; this is the therapy session you didn’t know you needed.

The Avengers: Age Of The Negros

Audacity. Two definitions come to mind—a willingness to take bold risks; and rude or disrespectful behaviors. On August 5, 2023, a day that will live in infamy, on the Montgomery Waterfront in Alabama, a group of boaters with rude and disrespectful behaviors took a bold risk to jump a black security guard. They messed around and found. Black history was made. 

 

On this episode of The Jigsaw, Josh and Bryan discuss white audacity, its origins, and how to combat it and uplift the community. Also, find out what famous person Josh ran into during his recent travels.
