The M.A.K Podcast
This is a continuation of the How R.u.d.e! Podcast. Follow this underground underdog of an artist’s journey to success. Follow the growth, progression, the trails and tribulations of a disenfranchised entertainer alongside with his friends and contemporaries.
The MAK Podcast — Too real for the faint-hearted, too funny for the boring.
Welcome to The MAK Podcast, the audio equivalent of kicking down the door to a late-night hangout where nobody pretends to behave. It’s music, madness, and mouthy opinions — all thrown into one glorious, unfiltered chaos. Expect Hip-Hop/Rap, R&B, and Alternative tracks that slap, paired with conversations that definitely weren’t cleared by any legal department.
We’re talking social and political commentary with a side of sarcasm, sports debates so heated you’ll think someone owes someone money, and life philosophy that might actually fix you… or break you. Either way, you’ll laugh. Probably too hard.
For listeners 21–55 who are tired of polished nonsense, The MAK Podcast is your sanctuary of reckless honesty, questionable wisdom, and jokes that will absolutely get someone in trouble.
It’s wild. It’s messy. It’s for entertainment purposes only — seriously, don’t quote us at work.
