Angela Riley

The idea for the Smoking Hot Podcast was sparked during a conversation among close friends who realized they shared more than just a bond—they shared a burning passion for exploring bold ideas, dissecting current trends, and challenging the status quo. What started as lively discussions among themselves quickly turned into a mission: to create a platform where insight meets impact. With that, the Smoking Hot Podcast was born—an unapologetic space for real talk, sharp perspectives, and conversations that matter.

Our Mission

The Smoking Hot Podcast exists to ignite thought-provoking conversations, amplify bold perspectives, and explore the cultural, political, and social issues shaping our world. Born from a shared passion among friends, our mission is to challenge the status quo, educate through real dialogue, and create a space where voices—especially those often unheard—are empowered and celebrated.

Our Team
We are seasoned, unapologetically opinionated voices with a deep commitment to the truth, the culture, and the beauty of Black lives. Rooted in experience and driven by purpose, we’re not here to play it safe—we’re here to speak boldly, challenge narratives, and uplift what makes Black people powerful, unique, and worthy of celebration. Our passion is our purpose, and every conversation we have is fueled by love for the culture and a refusal to stay quiet.
