  Arks, Ambition, and Allegations - The XX Files - Episode 54

  Sep 29, 202625 minS3

  We get into the latest claims surrounding the possible resting place of Noah’s Ark, a disturbing fraternity hazing case involving 30 men, and why sometimes you have to stop getting consumed by local gossip and start thinking bigger about your career and your future. Then we build our Mount Rushmore of weed flavors. For Controversy of the Week, we discuss lawsuits alleging Ozempic users suffered serious vision problems, including blindness. And for Conspiracy of the Week, we investigate something that’s been bothering us for way too long: why do all the berry-flavored Minute Maid drinks taste different?! Then it’s Interrogation time: talking animals, surprise million-dollar slaps, discontinued fast food, household-object hands, and Avengers powers based on your worst personality trait.

  Culture, Chaos, and Curiosity - The XX Files - Episode 53

  Sep 22, 202627 minS3

  This week we get into Converse catching backlash over a controversial sneaker ad, Nashville becoming the new Hollywood, the U.S. military putting weapons in space, and Ed Sheeran apologizing after Macklemore gets booted from tour. Then we’re asking the important questions: If we could draft ONE person into Black culture, who gets the call? Why are we so fascinated with turning tragedy and disturbing real-life stories into entertainment? And if aliens asked us to explain Black people with ONE piece of media… what are we showing them?

  Cinema, Culture, and Creative Chaos – The XX Files – Episode 51

  Jul 28, 202628 minS2

  Born in New Orleans and raised in Memphis after Hurricane Katrina, Bleu Levees is a recording artist and creative director redefining what Southern artistry can look and feel like. Blending music, film, and visual storytelling, Bleu has built a cinematic universe where every song feels like a scene and every project invites listeners into an entirely new world. Following the release of his debut album, The Way of the Cat , Bleu returns with his highly anticipated sophomore project, Not the Normal SOUTHEAUX , an ambitious body of work that challenges expectations of Southern music through immersive storytelling, bold visuals, and fearless creativity. This week on The XX Files , we dive into the inspiration behind his latest project, the influence of New Orleans and Memphis on his artistic identity, the importance of originality in today’s music industry, and why creating an experience matters just as much as creating a song. From anime and A24 films to live performances and creative risks, this conversation explores what it truly means to build a world instead of just making music. Support the show
