Description
Hosted by XO, AZ, and CDA, Past, Present, Pushback is where Sports, Politics, and Family collide. From the NFL field to Capitol Hill, from community struggles to household victories, we break down the headlines and the hidden stories shaping our world.
With XO bringing the millennial sports and culture lens, and AZ & CDA grounding the conversation in political insight and family wisdom, this isn’t just another podcast — it’s a space where Black voices push back against the noise and speak truth with honesty, humor, and heart.
