Get Honest or Die Lying

Why Small Talk Sucks

By: Charlamagne Tha God

Narrated by: Charlamagne Tha God, Elliot Connie, Landon Woodson

From Charlamagne Tha God, host of the morning radio phenomenon The Breakfast Club, and founder and CEO of iHeartRadio’s Black Effect Podcast Network, a rundown on how small talk from small minds have taken over our world, and the BIG conversations needed to climb our way back.

For over a decade, Charlamagne Tha God has cohosted iHeartRadio’s nationally syndicated morning radio show The Breakfast Club and has proven his power as a culture mover and thought leader, by being his completely authentic self on-air. From his famous “You ain't black” moment with President Biden, to heartfelt chats with cultural icons like Sean “Jay-Z” Carter and Judy Blume, to viral classics with Kamala Harris and Soulja Boy, his incredible reach and impact on American culture continues to grow.

In Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks, Charlamagne takes full command of his new perch, broadening his scope and embracing his life roles as a cultural curator, social commentator, job-creator, mental health advocate, and Girl Dad in ways we’ve never seen before. In his signature irreverent style, he looks at the world through his own lens, concluding that many of our divisions, our unhappiness, and our dissatisfactions stem from our failure to have meaningful conversations with each other. With lessons pulled from his past, and an eye on the future, Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks makes us laugh, cry, and think as Charlamagne shares his thoughts on growth, empowerment, and evolution in our fast-changing world. In short—it’s time to stop lying to each other, and ourselves.

Fame, money, social media, politics, hip-hop culture, and fatherhood, he takes it all on here. This master of seeing through the BS even calls it on himself, as he delivers his most insightful and heartfelt work yet—his call to stop the insanity while we still can.

Interesting

I really like CTG. His storytelling voice is captivating. I have read three of his books now and I genuinely like all three. This book just like the others leaves me with a sense of self, as I am currently on my own journey of self discovery and development. When I was a young girl I ran away from my father , probably my only regret in life , so because of that I didn’t get the guidance I needed from a male figure. I kinda just had to figure it out. So when a man I feel with purpose speaks I listen not only with my ears but my heart . CTG has spoke so much life into me since I started listening. So thank you CTG.

Great read, engaging and entertaining. Listened to the others, hope there is more to come.
