The Unhinged Podcast

More about our cool podcast.

WHAT UNHINGED IS

UNHINGED is an urban, unapologetic, mentally-intelligent talk show built for people who were never taught how to talk about what they feel.

We are four voices rooted in family, culture, and psychology, breaking down:

  • Why we love the way we do
  • Why we sabotage
  • Why we stay
  • Why we leave
  • Why we fight
  • Why we shut down
  • Why we self-destruct

We don’t just talk about drama.

We talk about the mind behind the drama.

UNHINGED is where culture meets psychology and nothing stays hidden.

THE FORMAT

UNHINGED is inspired by classic talk-show energy (The View, Red Table Talk, Girlfriends energy), but built for Black, queer, urban, and emotionally complex people.

There are three permanent hosts and one rotating “Fourth Seat”

That fourth seat is reserved for:

  • Artists
  • Culture shapers
  • Creatives
  • Community leaders
  • Chaos bringers
  • Truth tellers

Every episode brings a new voice into the family.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to normalize emotional truth in communities that were taught to suppress it.

We are here to:

  • Expose what nobody says out loud
  • Explain why people behave the way they do
  • De-stigmatize therapy, trauma, and emotional struggle
  • Bring psychological language to urban, queer, and Black spaces
  • Help people see themselves instead of attacking each other

We believe:

  • Every argument is a trauma response
  • Every breakup is a grief story
  • Every fight is a fear
  • Every pattern has a root

UNHINGED is about finding the root — not just reacting to the symptom.

PhD in Children & Adolescent Education

Raven is the intellectual backbone of UNHINGED. With a PhD focused on children and adolescent development, she connects personal stories to larger systems like education, culture, socialization, and power. She was the first to introduce psychology and mental health into the group, opening the door for deeper awareness and healing.

On the show, Raven helps turn lived experience into insight — breaking down why people behave the way they do and how society, schooling, and culture shape our emotional lives.

Rotating Guest Host

Every episode of UNHINGED includes a special rotating fourth seat — reserved for artists, creatives, community leaders, and culture shapers who bring their own truth into the room.

This seat keeps the conversation fresh, unpredictable, and rooted in real-world experience. Some weeks it’s a musician. Some weeks it’s a community builder. Some weeks it’s someone with a story the world needs to hear.

No matter who sits there, the rule stays the same:

Say it anyway.
