Interludes: A Pure Lighthouse Production

Church. Culture. Comedy. 🎤

I grew up in the church, and those early lessons still shape how I see public behavior—especially when you live life in the spotlight.

Tonight on Talk on Tuesdays, Coach Tony and I talk The Upshaws, awards season, and a church conversation that had the internet talking.

Tongues will wag.
Including ours. 👀

Episode 516. Pull up. Tonight...

Interludes: A Pure Lighthouse Production

For our last live Talk on Tuesdays show of 2025, Coach Tony and I are reviewing Dave Chappelle’s new Netflix special, The Unstoppable, and it took me places I wasn’t expecting. What starts as comedy quietly turns into history, reflection, and a whole lot of thinking.

We’re also counting down our Top Pop Culture Moments of 2025—our list, our lens, our conversation. Everybody’s doing their year-end countdowns, and you already know we had to bring ours to the table.

Pull up with us, share your thoughts, and let’s close the year together as we gear up for 2026. Join us tonight....

Interludes: A Pure Lighthouse Production

NEW EPISDOE ALERT!! Last night, Coach Tony and I wrapped up our final live Pull-Up Podcast Show of 2025, and it truly meant a lot to end the year in conversation with our amazing community.

During the episode, we broke down NFL Week 16, talked through the teams that have clinched their divisions, highlighted those heading into the playoffs, and listened to Coach Tony’s Super Bowl predictions—which, if you’ve been following along, he’s been surprisingly good at calling.

I also want to thank you for being so patient and supportive as I continue learning the game of football. From understanding what a first down really means to fully watching the Bears–Packers game this past Saturday, this journey has been eye-opening and exciting. That game took me on a ride. Green Bay played strong, and I honestly thought they had it—but everything changed in the fourth quarter and overtime. When the Bears pulled off the win, I immediately picked up the phone and called two people. That’s how real the moment felt.

This episode wasn’t just about football. It was about community, growth, and closing out the year together with intention and joy.

Interludes: A Pure Lighthouse Production

Tonight’s episode of The Pull Up Podcast Show is a heavy one.

We’re talking about Sherrone Moore’s exit from the University of Michigan—and what it means beyond the headlines. As one of the few African-American head coaches at a Division I program, his dismissal forces a deeper conversation about leadership, accountability, pressure, and representation in college football.

We’ll also break down:
🏈 NFL Week 15
🐻 The Chicago Bears’ win over Cleveland
📊 QB Caleb Williams setting an NFL record for the fewest interceptions in his first 1,000 pass attempts
❄️ Revisiting Shedeur Sanders playing at Soldier Field in brutal cold

So close to Christmas, this episode reminds us that sports are human—and we have to check on our strong friends.

Week 14 in the NFL did NOT disappoint, and that controversial ending between the Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans?? Yeah, we’re breaking all that down.
