blankSLATE with SaVon: Daily Summaries Delivered
by SaVon Slater
A reintroduction. blankSLATE is what comes next for SaVon, a clean canvas to reveal a voice he hasn't fully shown yet. A culture and music commentary podcast going past the headline and past the algorithm to find a different lens on media, music, and everything happening within the culture. A return to the kind of podcasting that built the format, before the clip economy reduced every show to a moment. Two shows. One name. The signature show drops weekly. Long-form episodes with rotating voices, slowing the headline down to read the fine print — bringing a lens the algorithm trains you to ignore. "blankSLATE Radio" is the real-time companion, SaVon solo, reacting to the moment with the kind of perspective the lane is missing, shaped by the audience through mailbag submissions. For people who want more than a hot take.

Ep. 6 | "Watch the Throne... Fall" | Culture Accountability
Nobody's off limits anymore, and the first name that comes to mind when SaVon thinks of untouchable is Jay-Z. This episode walks the straight-line path that got hip hop here — Me Too, R. Kelly, Diddy, and finally Drake and Kendrick — and lands on why the culture is now openly questioning a man who spent 30 years controlling the narrative without ever having to say a word. SaVon and Yassy also get into the Akademiks and Charlamagne proxy war, Jay-Z's quiet exits from Tidal and the Brooklyn Nets, and the Beyoncé brand symmetry that made both of them untouchable in the first place.

"The Great Whites!" | Yassy's Radio Debut: Her Akademiks Origin, Trauma Bonding +MORE | blankSLATE Radio
Trauma bonding built this friendship, and now it's building a segment. Yassy makes her first crossover onto the Radio side, and before we even touch current events, we're going all the way back — how she actually linked with Akademiks (email, not a tweet, and yes, there's an Applebee's involved), what nobody knows about her radio dreams before blankSLATE, and why LA burned both of us out in almost identical ways. Then we get into it: Yassy's Mount Rushmore of white people, my rebuttal list, a genuinely humbling Mount Rushmore trivia round, and a teaser for the hip-hop Mount Rushmore conversation we're clearly going to have to finish another time.

Episode 5 | "Lab Rats With Wi-Fi" | The Social Experiment
There used to be a line between watching entertainment and being used by it. This episode makes the case that the line is gone and that the audience became the experiment without ever agreeing to it. SaVon and Yassy use Love Island, the Verzuz stage, and the long-running Tyler Perry and 50 Cent debate as entry points into a larger conversation about engineered attention, reaction turned into profit, and a culture that quietly turned its audience into the product. Three pillars that look unrelated on the surface, running the same play underneath. The experiment isn't whether the entertainment works. It's whether anyone watching will ever do something it didn't already predict. Become a member of blankSLATE on Patreon — ad-free listening, early access, and a direct hand in shaping the show.

Episode 4 | "Famous At 5, Untouchable At 50" (with YassyTV) | The Monoculture Conversation
There used to be such a thing as monoculture — one moment everyone was tapped into at the same time. Michael Jackson was the last person to truly have it, and this episode makes the case for why the world will never make another. Everybody throws his name around — Kanye, Beyoncé, Chris Brown, Usher, even Taylor Swift — but SaVon and Yassy, joined by Karl aka FilmGawd, break down the seven buckets that made Michael Jackson untouchable, why the biopic worked for casuals but lost the real fans, and a Mount Rushmore of the artists who get closest — knowing none of them actually reach him. The thesis: universal fame is structurally over, and he was the last of it. Become a member of blankSLATE on Patreon — ad-free listening, early access, and a direct hand in shaping the show.

"The Internet Had A Lot To Say" + Reacting To The Elliott Wilson $20k | blankSLATE Radio
SaVon breaks down exactly when the contract was signed, when payment was due, and why the "life happened" excuse doesn't hold up. This is the full story, for the last time.

Ep. 03 | Part 2: "Eat What You Kill" | The Elliott Wilson Story
The other half of the story, and the part that lingers. SaVon traces what happened after the work was done and the money never came — the silence, an offer that wasn't really an offer, and the question of who answers when the people at the top go quiet. Less about the $20,000 than what the whole thing revealed about Elliott Wilson, Roc Nation, and the business behind them.

Ep. 02 | Part 1: "The $20,000 Mistake" | The Elliott Wilson Story
Full Story available early on Patreon. Join here: https://www.patreon.com/blankslatehq SaVon breaks down the $20,000 he lost on a high-profile podcast season tied to Elliott Wilson and backed by Roc Nation. He left a stable job to bet on himself and carried the risk alone. He was warned before he ever signed — and went anyway. Part 1 is how it started, what made him say yes, and what it ended up costing him. Become a member of blankSLATE on Patreon — ad-free listening, early access, and a direct hand in shaping the show.

"Two Pimps, One Algorithm" — How Clip Culture Works | blankSLATE Radio
The internet found a way to make humiliation pay rent. Deen the Great and Adrien Broner. Adam22 and Lena the Plug. Two arrangements, one machine — and a clipping economy that pays the most for your lowest moment. We pull it apart: where the money actually goes, why you can't escape these people, and what the algorithm is quietly training all of us to become. — Become a member of blankSLATE on Patreon — ad-free listening, early access, and a direct hand in shaping the show: https://www.patreon.com/blankslatehq Like, comment, subscribe — and support a Black-owned business.
