  • Stories That Heal with Nneka Oluoha

    Stories That Heal with Nneka Oluoha
    Sep 16 2026
    In this conversation, Billy Dees talks with Nigerian-American physician, novelist, and speaker Dr. Nneka Oluoha about mental health, culture, identity, family expectations, immigration, empathy, and the power of storytelling.

    As an internal medicine hospitalist, Dr. Oluoha has witnessed firsthand the deeply personal stories people often carry beneath the surface. Those experiences helped inspire her novel Live for Me Nkem, which explores depression, marriage, motherhood, family relationships, and the immigrant experience through the story of a Nigerian woman living in America.

    Billy and Dr. Oluoha discuss why asking for help can be so difficult, how cultural expectations can influence the way people understand emotional struggles, and why empathy and trust are essential when someone is finally ready to open up.

    The conversation also explores identity and the idea that we are more than any single label or role. Dr. Oluoha shares her own experience coming to the United States from Nigeria, adapting to a new culture, and finding a balance between her identities as a physician, mother, wife, and Nigerian-American.

    They also talk about writing with purpose, the difference between statistics and stories, and why fiction can sometimes help us understand mental health in a way that numbers simply cannot.

    It's a thoughtful conversation about the stories we carry, the expectations that shape us, and what can happen when we finally find the courage to say, "I need help."

  • Simulcast Episode - Mistrial, Midterms, and Mistrust

    Simulcast Episode - Mistrial, Midterms, and Mistrust
    Sep 12 2026
    This episode is a simulcast of the Shades of Jade Podcast and The Billy Dees Podcast.

    In this Shades of Jade roundtable, host Sam is joined by author Sidney Pines and longtime podcaster Billy Dees for a wide-ranging conversation about media, the justice system, politics, and America’s readiness for challenging times.

    Sidney, author of Awakening: A Patriot’s Diary of American Deception and Golden Age Rising, brings the perspective of an everyday American documenting the events and cultural shifts of recent years. Alongside Billy, host of the Billy Dees Podcast, the discussion explores why audiences are increasingly turning away from legacy media and toward independent shows—and whether podcasting risks falling into the same traps of sensationalism and unserious commentary.

    The conversation also examines the Lindsay Clancy mistrial, including the surge of public support for the accused, concerns about forgotten victims, jury harassment, and what the panel sees as the selective use of hormonal and mental-health explanations in public discourse.

    From there, the roundtable turns to American preparedness for a genuine crisis, upcoming midterm elections and key governor’s races in Ohio, Iowa, and Illinois, and the question of how quickly public attention has shifted away from the Epstein files.

    It’s a candid and thought-provoking conversation examining the stories dominating the headlines—and the ones that seem to disappear just as quickly.

  • What If Your Relationship Was a Monument Worth Protecting?

    What If Your Relationship Was a Monument Worth Protecting?
    Sep 11 2026
    What happens when you’re given a second chance at life—and decide to use it to help other people save their relationships?

    In this episode of The Billy Dees Podcast, Bill sits down with Gaylen Wilson, a heart transplant survivor, 20-year sober alcoholic, relationship author, erectile dysfunction advocate, and co-founder of the Monument Method Institute.

    Gaylen shares the remarkable story of his heart failure, including the moment doctors discovered his heart was functioning at only about 5%, the years of declining health that followed, and the unforgettable night in June 2018 when he received a donor heart. But surviving a heart transplant was only the beginning of his story.

    Gaylen and his wife, Heather, turned their own relationship experiences into a philosophy they call the Monument Method—the idea that a relationship is something we are constantly building or damaging through our words, actions, affection, and willingness to put the relationship ahead of winning an argument. They discuss emotional safety, attachment, conflict, intimacy, and what Gaylen calls the “Sanctuary Bond.”

    The conversation also takes a turn toward some uncomfortable realities of modern relationships and dating. Bill and Gaylen discuss erectile dysfunction, pornography, declining intimacy among younger people, dating culture, and the rise of AI and other forms of simulated companionship. Gaylen explains his concept of “counterfeit connection” and why he believes technology can sometimes provide the appearance of intimacy without the substance of a real human bond.

    From a near-death experience to relationship coaching, dozens of books, and an unconventional approach to preserving intimacy, Gaylen's story raises a surprisingly simple question: Are we building our relationships—or slowly taking a hammer and chisel to them?

    A wide-ranging conversation about second chances, love, intimacy, emotional safety, modern dating, and what it takes to protect the relationships that matter most.
