The podcast episodes provided discuss various aspects of the Black Power movement, including its intellectual and ideological underpinnings, its connections to the civil rights movement, and its impact on the broader struggle for racial justice.

For example, the episode ""Write Like a Man" (w/ Ronnie Grinberg)" explores how a group of predominantly Jewish male writers in mid-20th century New York developed a notion of secular Jewish masculinity characterized by verbal combativeness and polemical aggression, which influenced their political ideologies, including neoconservatism. The episode also examines the dynamics between these male intellectuals and prominent female writers, as well as their perspectives on the Black Power movement and their anxieties about black masculinity.

The episode "Episode 560: Mosi Secret" discusses the idea of armed self-defense by oppressed groups, which was prevalent in the Black Power movement, as a central theme explored in the 'Radical' podcast.

The episode "Episode 266 UNLOCKED - Tales from the Black Power Movement" features a discussion on the evolution of the civil rights movement into the broader black power movement and its ongoing impact.

The episode "The Toughest Cop in America" chronicles the rise of Frank Rizzo, a controversial and powerful figure in Philadelphia, who used his position in law enforcement to oppress the Black community and suppress the growing Black liberation movement, including the MOVE organization.

Finally, the episode "[Anti-Essentialism Series] Ep 2 - The Panthers Can't Save Us Now w/ Cedric Johnson" critiques the romanticization of the Black Power movement and its appropriation without a radical economic agenda, advocating for organizing around common needs rather than solely on racial lines.
