Talkaholism is the podcast for people who are more interested in understanding conversations than winning arguments.

Every week, we take the stories everyone is talking about—from breaking news and pop culture to politics, technology, sports, and social issues—and explore the bigger human questions behind the headlines.

Instead of asking, "Who's right?" we ask:

  • What actually happened?
  • Why has this become such a conversation?
  • What different perspectives are people bringing to it?
  • What does this reveal about us?
  • What question should we still be thinking about after the episode ends?

Through thoughtful storytelling, factual reporting, and respectful curiosity, Talkaholism maps the conversations shaping our world without telling you what to think.

Because the most interesting part of the news isn't always the headline.

It's the conversation that follows.

New episodes weekly.

  • When Temporary Becomes Uncertain: The Conversation Behind Haiti's TPS Decision.
    Jul 20 2026

    A Supreme Court decision affecting Temporary Protected Status has left hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants facing an uncertain future. But beyond the legal ruling lies a deeper conversation about belonging, stability, and what it means to build a life when tomorrow feels uncertain.

    In this episode of Talkaholism, we explore the many conversations surrounding immigration, humanitarian protections, community, and faith. Rather than focusing on political arguments, we ask the questions that often get overlooked: How do people plan for the future when everything feels temporary? And when does "temporary" begin to feel like home?

  • Can You Be an Activist and Still Do Business? Jay-Z's Target Response
    Jul 13 2026

    When Jay-Z used a freestyle at Yankee Stadium to respond to criticism over his partnership with Target, he did more than defend a business decision—he sparked a larger conversation about activism, accountability, and public expectations.

    In this episode of Talkaholism, we move beyond the headlines to explore why this story has resonated so deeply. Can someone support social causes while working within large corporations? How should we measure a public figure's impact—by their business decisions, their advocacy, or the results they produce?

    Rather than debating who's right, we map the different perspectives and examine the bigger human questions behind the controversy.

    Because sometimes the most interesting story isn't what happened—it's why we're talking about it.
