The Jigsaw

• Don't Let Them In

  This week on The Jigsaw, Bryan breaks down his experience at the GNX Tour, while he and Josh mourn the Grizzlies and Lakers getting bounced from the playoffs. But the real heat is in the Living Room, where the guys dive into Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s newest film starring Michael B. Jordan. With vampires as culture vultures, Black trauma as currency, and faith caught in the middle, the movie opens up a powerful conversation on cultural appropriation, the danger of being too welcoming, and the spiritual labor Black women carry.   From the blues to the church, from gatekeeping to discernment — this one is layered. Tap in, laugh hard, think deep, and as always, find the pieces and figure it out.   Bless Up:     Brwn Stock - Erica Chisolm   Check them out online at brwnstock.com or on IG @brwnstock   Song of the Week: Girl - The Internet, Girl - Destiny’s Child      Tap in with your favorite Casanegros by writing them or following them on social media:   Email: [email protected]   Instagram: @thejigsawpodcast | @iamjoshrodgers | @iambryanhaire

• Target! You In Danger, Girl.

  This week, we’re talking everything from Resurrection Weekend reflections to the realities of grocery shopping in today’s economy. We’re diving into the cultural richness of soul food and Mexican cuisine, the evolution of iconic Black mothers on TV, and the ways authentic storytelling has shaped how we see ourselves on screen. We’re also dreaming about trips to Japan, spotlighting Black entrepreneurship abroad, and celebrating Black excellence worldwide. Plus, we’re unpacking the recent Target boycott—what it says about accountability, the power of collective action, and why we’re choosing to be more intentional with where we spend our dollars. It’s a full plate, and trust us—you’ll want a seat at this table.   Bless Up Report: Deuce Ludus Griggs – Subterra Cocktail Bar | @subterra_osaka​Instagram   Song of the Week - Good Mornin' - Flwr Chyld   Tap in with your favorite Casanegros: Email: [email protected] Instagram: @thejigsawpodcast | @iamjoshrodgers | @iambryanhaire

• Cooning For The Gospel?

  This week, we’re unpacking how harmful anti-Black theology and respectability politics have shaped the ways we see ourselves—and how others expect us to perform faith. We’re digging into the ways the church has sometimes been complicit in upholding oppressive systems, and how Jesus’ own life was marked by civil disobedience, resistance, and liberation. From flipping tables to breaking rules for the sake of the marginalized, Christ showed us that kingdom work often looks like disruption. Let’s talk about it. But also, it’s Holy Week so the Casanegros are gonna be churchy.   Bless Up: The Folklore – Founded by Amira Rasool Explore global Black-owned fashion and lifestyle brands at thefolklore.com or on IG @thefolklore   Song of the Week: Oh Holy Lamb – Youthful Praise feat.

• Keep Bronny's Name Out Your Mouth

  Some conflicts call for calm conversations, while others demand you stand ten toes down. This week on The Jigsaw, Josh and Bryan break down the Stephen A. Smith and LeBron James exchange to unpack the fine line between keeping the peace and applying pressure. When should we go to bat for our loved ones? When is silence the best strategy? And how do we handle sensitive matters without burning bridges? Tap in as we explore the wisdom of knowing when to talk it out and when it’s time to say knuck if you buck!   Bless Up:  Niamb - Thrilling   Check them out online at shopthrilling.com or on IG @shopthrilling   Song of the Week: Put Your Records On - Corinne Bailey Rae   Tap in with your favorite Casanegros by writing them or following them on social media:     Email: [email protected]   Instagram: @thejigsawpodcast | @iamjoshrodgers | @iambryanhaire
