His unique ability to dissect complex topics and present them in an accessible manner has garnered him a diverse audience, ranging from political enthusiasts to everyday listeners seeking to understand the world around them.

At the heart of Dr. Richey’s podcast is a commitment to fostering informed dialogue. He frequently invites guests from various backgrounds, including activists, politicians, and scholars, to share their insights and experiences. This approach not only enriches the conversation but also provides listeners with multiple perspectives on critical issues. Dr. Richey’s skillful moderation and compelling storytelling create an engaging listening experience that encourages audience participation and reflection.

The Black Podcasting Awards aim to recognize and celebrate the contributions of Black podcasters across various genres. Dr. Richey’s nomination in the Best News & Politics category highlights the increasing importance of Black voices in shaping narratives around politics and social justice. As the media landscape becomes more fragmented, platforms like the Black Podcasting Awards serve to uplift and amplify creators who are making meaningful contributions to the discourse.

This Emmy-nominated national broadcaster, philanthropist, published author, physics professor and the 2023 recipient of the Top Media Estate Award from the Multicultural Media Correspondents Association, sponsored by Comcast NBC Universal, recently signed a national radio syndication deal with Agents & Strategies LLC, estimated to be worth over 2.7 million dollars, airing his morning show, ‘The Dr. Rashad Richey Morning Show’ on radio stations across the USA and Canada, making him the “king of media” in more ways than one.

Dr. Richey first began his rise to national prominence while being the on-air television political analyst for CBS News Atlanta, where he was the first (and only) political commentator to receive an Emmy nomination for his role. In 2020 and 2021, he provided weekly commentary on MSNBC, debating issues with counter-commentators on a litany of subjects, while maintaining his local weekday morning talk show in Atlanta, Georgia, the ‘Rashad Richey Morning Show’, airing on News & Talk 1380-WAOK, an Audacy station. Dr. Richey, who recently signed a 2.7 million dollar national syndication deal with Agents & Strategies for his morning show, has interviewed everyone from Bobby Brown to presidential candidate, United States Vice-President Kamala Harris. His popularity in the Atlanta market earned him the distinction of being named “Most Trusted Voice in Atlanta” by the Atlanta Business Journal and was voted ‘Best Talk Radio Personality in Atlanta’ by readers of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, making him the first Black broadcaster to receive the distinction. 

In the most recent Reader’s Choice edition of Atlanta Magazine, Dr. Richey was voted ‘Best TV News Anchor’  and ‘Best Radio Personality’, the first person to win both categories simultaneously. “When Dr. Richey speaks, he resonates with people from all walks of life. His authenticity is derived from his lived experiences. His heart for people-centered solutions makes him focused, fearless, and fine-tuned, speaking truth in an era where disinformation has become a sport for some. His relentless passion sheds light on the soul of America, contributing to a more illuminated future”, said David Morgan, Co-Founder and President, Multicultural Media & Correspondents Association.

In addition to his weekly radio broadcast, Dr. Richey also holds down the air-chair as host of ‘The Dr. Rashad Richey Review’ on SiriusXM Urban View Channel 126, airing Sundays at 1 pm EST & 9 pm EST and still has enough energy to be the daily television opinion news anchor for ‘Indisputable With Dr. Rashad Richey,’ a live nationally syndicated TV show through the TYT Network, ranked the “fastest-growing TV news show in America” by HEG Evaluation Group, with over three million viewers daily. The show regularly features nationally known figures like radio giant, actor, and comedian Rickey Smiley, HBO Max’s Aida Rodriguez, news host Sharon Reed, and Enfield, North Carolina Mayor Mondale Robinson. 

‘Indisputable’s’ corresponding YouTube and Facebook Watch pages have over 2.17 million combined subscribers/followers, and airs live weekdays from 2:30 pm to 4 pm EST on Comcast Xfinity, Xfinity Flex, SamsungTV, RokuTV, PlutoTV, and other national digital cable platforms. And while his new 2.7-million-dollar syndication deal ranks him as a top earner in media, Dr. Richey’s YouTube page alone garners 2.65 million dollars annually according to the website FameMingles, and his TYT Network deal allows for multi-market syndication across a plethora of monetized platforms. These numbers do not include endorsement arrangements or his SuriusXM contract. Based on industry estimates, Dr. Richey’s media empire, which includes being president of Rolling Out, the largest free-print urban publication in America, ranges between 8.1 – 12.2 million dollars. The success experienced by Dr. Richey and other content creators of his pedigree points to the power of being a multifaceted, multi-platformed, technologically savvy on-air talent, understanding the power of traditional and nontraditional media mediums, to more effectively reach the masses.

He completed his Doctor of Jurisprudence degree (law degree) and now serves as the managing partner for the Law Office of Richey & Wilson, also known as The Fairness Firm, D.C.

Dr. Richey holds multiple advanced degrees, completing doctoral research studies at Clark Atlanta University in federal policy reform and earned his Doctor of Laws (LLD) in Immigration Law & World Economies from Azteca University. He holds an MBA from Beulah Heights University in Atlanta, Georgia and Master of Science in agronomical physics from the Universite de la Renaissance, which has a framework agreement with the University of Rennes 2, the largest center for research and higher education in the field of human science in western France. His Master of Science in neuroscience, with an emphasis on neurophysics, was earned from the University of Pacific. Dr. Richey is in the final phase of completing his PhD in the Quantum Physics research program through the Innovate Knowledge Institute at Paris Graduate School, where his research focus delves into the quantum-biological connections between quantum properties and human neurological processes.

An established maverick with nuances and depth beyond the norm, Dr. Richey is the youngest inductee into the National Black Radio Hall of Fame, and received the 2023 “Distinguished Alumni Award” from Clark Atlanta University. He was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from President Barack Obama in 2016 and is also the youngest inductee into the National Black College Alumni Hall of Fame, where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Oprah Winfrey, Ambassador Andrew Young, and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall are past recipients.

He is a member of Delta Theta Phi Law Fraternity, Inc., the International Bar Association, American Bar Association, National Society of Black Physicists, and the International Behavioral Neuroscience Society.

While Dr. Richey was not available for interview, when asked in a previous article, how he does it all, he said, “We are more than just physical beings and capable of achieving feats congruent to our willingness to learn and our will to serve. God has given each of us a divine spark inside. Connecting with that divine spark will make mountains move out of your way.”

In an era where misinformation can spread like wildfire, Dr. Richey’s work stands out as a beacon of clarity and integrity. His dedication to truth-telling and accountability resonates deeply with audiences who are increasingly seeking reliable sources of information. The nomination for the Black Podcasting Awards is not just a recognition of his talent but also a validation of the vital role that informed commentary plays in our society.
