What Was That? Episode 332 Trump's NABJ Disaster, Kamala Harris, 2024 Olympics, And Israel Riots
Friday, 20 February, 2026
Episode 332 of the Homeroom with Smooth Podcast covers multiple topics, led by a breakdown of Donald Trump's National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) interview, which the host calls disastrous and widely criticized. The host reacts to the opening question as overly aggressive, says Trump repeatedly avoided answering questions, and highlights moments including Trump's comments about Kamala Harris' race, DEI language, “black jobs,” immigration, inflation, police immunity in relation to Sonya Massey, claims about his classified documents case, abortion, cognitive testing, and pardoning January 6 rioters. The host also comments on live fact-checking, audio issues during the event, and argues Trump made numerous false or misleading claims. Quick news items include condolences to Sonya Massey's family and noting the police chief's apology and that the officer has been charged; Cardi B filing for divorce from Offset again while pregnant with their third child; praise for the film Deadpool and Wolverine; and criticism of JPEGMAFIA over alleged videos involving spitting in fans' mouths, including a claimed minor. On Kamala Harris, the host discusses her election momentum and an Atlanta rally turnout, but criticizes having Megan Thee Stallion perform, preferring speakers simply address issues; the host says Harris should pick a vice president soon, likely around the DNC. The Olympics segment includes praise for Simone Biles and the U.S. women's gymnastics team, mentions U.S. men's five-on-five basketball success, disappointment at U.S. three-on-three losses, discussion of Seine River water concerns including alleged protests involving people defecating in the river, and mention of a shooter winning silver without special equipment. The host also raises controversy about a boxer described as raised as a woman but later found to have XY chromosomes, stating it is unfortunate and saying the boxer should not compete against women. The final topic addresses Israel: the host describes allegations that 10 guards sexually assaulted a Palestinian prisoner, says the guards were arrested, and criticizes Israeli parliamentary debate and riots seeking their release. The host also mentions Israel killing Hamas and Hezbollah figures, including a Hamas leader involved in negotiations, says the strike occurred in Iran's territory, and notes Iran's vow to retaliate, warning this risks broader Middle East conflict. The episode ends with the host planning to split the show into clips and asking viewers to subscribe. 00:00 Episode 332 Kickoff: Trump NABJ Interview, Kamala Rally & More on Deck 01:13 Quick Hits: Sonya Massey Case Update & Condolences 02:24 Pop Culture & Music News: Cardi B/Offset, Deadpool & Wolverine, JPEGMAFIA Callout 04:50 Show Starts: Setting Up the NABJ Clip Breakdown 08:08 NABJ Context: Why Kamala Harris Skipped (For Now) 11:00 The Opening Question That Lit the Match 18:43 DEI & Identity Controversy: Trump Questions Kamala's Blackness 24:49 “Black Jobs” and Immigration: What He Meant vs. Reality 31:43 Inflation & “Bad Equipment”: Dodging the Policy Question 37:46 Sonya Massey, Police Immunity & Accountability Debate 46:08 Trump's Prosecution Claims: Live Fact-Check and Records Case Reality 50:21 JD Vance ‘Childless Cat Ladies' Comments & Why Birth Rates Are Falling 55:16 Global Birth Rates: Why Industrialized Nations Are Shrinking 56:40 Back to the Trump Interview: Kids Getting Extra Votes? 57:36 Immigration & Voting Claims: Fact-Checking the Fearmongering 59:03 Why JD Vance?
