We just tryna get our spins. Harlem's Heroes are no strangers to the stream hustle. Having run their show for over half a year now, they know that earning and maintaining interest in your content is the universal struggle for creators such as themselves. And on this episode, which brings a brief pause to their run of guest-oriented episodes, they call on a few friends in the music recording business to share the peaks and valleys of their journeys thus far. With the ever-ebullient Abril back at their side, the boys host one of their smoothest and most insightful convos yet. Don't miss this one! FEAT. Some brutal unpopular opinions at the end. Seriously, y'all--hide the weapons from yourselves.Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

Tune in for this latest insightful and wide-ranging conversation!FEAT. Multiple Justin rants. We’re so sorry. Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

Working out is hard to do. And maybe no one knows that as well as the group we gathered for this fitness-centric episode. Listen in as trainers Sonja, Joe, and Jeff trade personal accounts about their health journeys, discuss how corporate and clientele demands have shifted with Covid, and get into some of the lesser-seen aspects of our gym-centric society.
FEAT. our first ever Zoom recording. Not too shabby.

Sheesh. Been a fat minute, ain’t it? But after a long time planning, Harlem's Heroes are back with a "miniseries" of sorts to chronicle different aspects of life in quarantine.

Simmons is a new alumnus of Columbia College Chicago’s performing arts program and Kiara Jones a new alumna of Temple University with a Bachelor’s in Journalism. Feat.

Now since we all came from a woman, got our name from a woman, and our game from a woman...you know the rest. For this month, Harlem’s Heroes wanted to theme at least one episode around Women’s History. Luckily, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton released a four-part documentary on Hulu that aims to cover her life both in and outside of politics. After watching episode one, the boys sit down to dish on this particular portrayal of one of the most simultaneously denigrated and celebrated women in American history.
Feat. a shout-out to SOME of the ladies in our lives. Plus, Justin reads his two-week notice!

And We Back! *Cue Dipset Anthem* After a much-needed break and somewhat inspired by the untimely passing of Kobe and Gianna Bryant, Harlem's Heroes are jumping right into Black History Month with a discussion of Black celebrity. In a candid and flowing conversation the boys cover topics like the impact of Black art on America, the fickleness of cancel culture, the nuances of representation, and try to parse the validity behind Issa Rae's now famous quote: "I'm rooting for everybody Black."But should we be?

Is there any better way to close out 2019 than by having an African immigrant fight an American Trump supporter? In their first of many fight sport-oriented episodes, Harlem’s Heroes dish on some upcoming bouts -- most notably "The Nigerian Nightmare" Kamaru Usman vs Colby "Chaos" Covington. They also relive their first experiences watching fight sports, hypothesize a few "What Ifs" in fighting, and ponder what professional fighter they'd each step in a ring with for $10M. (This episode is also the first one to be completely unedited. Do what you will with that information.)Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

The foolery continues in episode two! Harlem's Very Own discuss rapper T.I.’s revelation that he takes his daughter to a gynecologist every year for...uh…hymen maintenance, let’s call it? Jude and Justin don’t have kids, but they’re both pretty sure that’s a line they’d never cross. They discuss necessary boundaries, how they'd have The Talk with their kids, and offer some tips to the Atlanta rap vet (as if he'll ever hear it) about how he can do better.

ON THE INAUGURAL EPISODE OF HvO, get ready for IMMEDIATE controversy! Jude is an atheist; Justin is a Christian. Neither of them really cared for Yeezy’s latest venture. Still, the two sit down to open up a potentially episode-spanning can of worms. Do they believe in Kanye’s reformation? And after everything that’s happened, can we still believe in Kanye at all?
