After a nearly two year hiatus, Cracking 40s With Quinten returns with three of everyone's favorite guests, Ian Williams, Mike McGee and Albert Egbo. In this episode, the four of us try and make sense of everything that's happened since the last time we recorded.

We're back! On this episode I sit down with Tedric Wells and talk about DC, the Washington Wizards and our favorite film franchise

In part 2 of our conversation, Emmett and I talk about the VMAs, Biggie Smalls, his run-ins with the police, and of course, his favorite Kanye West albums.

In this episode Emmett and I talk about how it feels to be told that you suck, the correct way to pop off on Facebook, the response to his book Twitterature, and the strategic importance of U-God. We are skeptical about the Straight Outta Compton trailer (I saw it this weekend though --it's lit.)

In what's probably my favorite episode thus far, Mike explains his Chicago Bears fever dream, being in Charleston during the shooting at Emmanuel AME, and answers some quick hitters. We agree that "Homecoming" is a bottom tier Kanye West song. Also shouts out to NBA Game Time for being the preferred NBA news app of the Cracking 40s podcast.

In part 2 of our conversation, Mike talks about emceeing events, what its like to have launched a startup with two black co-founders, and his unbelievable margarita marathon.

I'm going IN this week with part one (of three!) of my conversation with Mike McGee, co-founder of The Starter League. On this episode, we talk about our worst concert experiences, an eye-opening Radiolab story, and why dancing around white people makes us feel weird.

In part 2 of my conversation with Albert, I try and get him to tell me his origin story, we talk about Caitlyn Jenner, and I get my Kanye West album titles confused.

I prepared some questions, but this one gets off the rails pretty quickly. Albert talks about his near death experience, why he owns two Sega Dreamcasts, and runs into a unforeseen obstacle when it comes to drinking his 40.

On this weeks podcast, Ian Williams and I talk Benny the Bull, Industry Plants, and the NBA offseason. We also finish our 40s.

On this episode, Ian and I try and make sense of Clarence Thomas's gay marriage dissent, discuss what it's like to be a Second City Graduate, and Ian shines light on the acting acumen of Chicago Bulls mascot Benny the Bull. I giggle a lot. Get used to it.
