FULL SHOW | The Senate Will Not Reconvene Until Monday, Leaving Millions Hungry; Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson Buy House Together and Rumored Marriage; Journalist Roland Martin Joins RSMS and Talk Shutdown; and MORE
Description
The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast takes a heartfelt turn as Ricky Smiley opens with an emotional plea to support millions of Americans at risk of going hungry amid the government shutdown. With the Senate refusing to reconvene until Monday, federal food assistance through SNAP is set to lapse, threatening over 42 million low-income families. Ricky’s compassion takes center stage as he announces a nationwide push to partner with churches and community leaders like Pastor Jamal Bryant and Bishop Joseph Walker to host food drives and live broadcasts to refill pantries. Guest Roland Martin joins the conversation to break down the politics behind the crisis, calling out the Trump administration’s refusal to tap into a $6 billion emergency fund that could keep SNAP running. Together, they emphasize that the people most impacted are the working poor — families who hold jobs yet still can’t afford food — and urge listeners to visit HungerFreeAmerica.org to help.
In entertainment news, the crew reacts to viral rumors that Megan Thee Stallion and NBA star Klay Thompson secretly tied the knot, after photos surfaced of them holding the keys to a shared mansion. The RSMS team celebrates the power of community with Sean Paul’s humanitarian efforts. The dancehall legend pledged $50,000 to match donations for Jamaica’s Hurricane Melissa relief fund through his foundation.
