  • Season 5 Ep 6: Q. Lewis
    Feb 27 2026

    We’ve officially crossed into the second half of Season 5, and we’re keeping the momentum high for Episode 6! 🎙️✨

    This week, the booth is graced by greatness as we welcome Q. Lewis, a three-time award-winning audio producer and a visionary dedicated to putting his beloved city of Detroit on the global media map. This isn't just an interview; it’s a masterclass in craft, city pride, and deep reflection.

    Q. Lewis steps into the qu3stions arena to navigate our signature question gauntlet, leading to some of the most insightful (and delicious) conversations of the season:

    • The Detroit Standard: We settle the score once and for all—does Detroit truly make the best pizza in the world? Plus, Q. shares his mission to elevate Detroit's media presence. 🍕🏙️

    • Life Lessons: Hear the powerful six-word advice Q. would give to his younger self and the one new skill this seasoned pro is still dying to learn.

    • After-Hours Vibes: From his go-to diner meal and favorite bodega snacks to the "after the club" fuel that keeps him going. 🍟

    • The Deep End: We get philosophical as Q. defines what love means to him, debates the reality of the moon landing, and answers the ultimate riddle: What is Humpty Dumpty? 🥚🤔

    • Behind the Producer: What does an award-winning producer talk about when he’s talking to himself? And who is the one musician, dead or alive, he’d book for his birthday?

    Whether you're a Detroit native, an aspiring producer, or just here for the rapid-fire chaos, this episode with Q. Lewis is a Season 5 standout.

  • Season 5 Ep 5: Chris
    Feb 22 2026

    We’ve officially hit the halfway point of Season 5! For Episode 5, we’re slowing things down just enough to get deep, while still keeping that signature qu3stions energy.

    This week, we are joined by public speaker and renowned speech coach Chris Ward Jr. When you spend your life teaching others how to find their voice, what happens when you’re the one answering the questions? Chris joins us for a masterclass in conversation, blending professional insight with some of our most unpredictable prompts yet.

    Chris Ward Jr. steps up to the mic to tackle the gauntlet, leading to some truly unique discussions:

    • The Art of the Speak: Chris shares a fascinating look at how 80s comedic movies actually helped shape his professional approach to public speaking. 🎤🎬

    • The Humpty Dumpty Theory: We get introspective—and maybe a little bit existential—about who (or what) Humpty Dumpty actually was. It’s not just about the egg! 🥚

    • Deep Definitions: Chris takes on the ultimate question: "What is love?" and provides a perspective only a speech coach could articulate. ❤️

    • The Rapid-Fire Round: From his favorite bodega snacks and go-to Filipino food to the movies that made him laugh the hardest and his "must-have" diner order.

    • Honesty & Mystery: We discuss loyalty vs. respect, the age of his first kiss, and the one thing about him that’s almost impossible to believe.

    Whether you're looking to improve your own speaking or just want to know if Chris thinks we actually landed on the moon, this episode is the perfect halfway mark for the season.

  • Season 5 Ep 4: Nik B
    Feb 16 2026

    Season 5 is heating up! For Episode 4, we’re bringing some "Dirty" energy to the table.

    This week, we are joined by the incredible Nik B, one-half of the Dirty Roses podcast. Known for her sharp wit and honest takes, Nik B steps into the qu3stions arena to tackle our question gauntlet. But before we get to the rapid-fire, we dive into some serious cultural debates—from the seasoning that defines a city to the complexities of the human heart.


    We’re covering everything from the pantry to the soul. Highlights include:

    • The Great Food Debates: We’re asking the tough questions—is Old Bay the greatest seasoning of all time, or is it overrated? And are French fries the "basic" choice of the food world? 🍟🧂

    • Deep Reflections: A heavy-hitting conversation on the philosophy of relationships: Is it actually possible to love someone unconditionally?

    • The qu3stions Gauntlet: Nik B reveals her go-to flirty emoji, the movie that made her laugh the hardest, and what she really talks about when she’s talking to herself.

    • The Random & Ridiculous: From what she’d do with four arms to the craziest thing she’s ever asked ChatGPT. 🤖

    Whether we’re debating moon landings or defining love, Nik B brings the perfect blend of humor and depth to the mic.
