The Officer Tatum Show

In this episode, I break down newly released messages in the Karmelo Anthony case and ask why so many people blindly supported him based on race before knowing the full story. Then I dive into the Lindsey Clancy mistrial, what jurors are now saying about the lone holdout, whether an insanity defense was justified, and why comparisons to Tanya McDowell and other cases leave out some very important facts.
I also fire back at D.L. Hughley and Don Lemon after they brought me and my wife into their conversation, and I react to Texas candidate James Talarico’s comments about Christianity and other religions. Plus, Master P joins Cam Newton for a conversation every Black American should hear about ownership, supporting Black businesses, building wealth, personal responsibility, and why changing the culture starts with us.

In this episode, I break down the latest ruling in the Tyler Robinson case as the judge explains why prosecutors presented enough evidence to establish probable cause and send all seven charges toward trial. We look at the DNA evidence, surveillance footage, alleged messages to Lance Twiggs, and the judge’s explanation for why the aggravated murder and firearm charges cleared this stage of the case.
I also give the latest on the Lindsey Clancy trial after a woman was arrested and charged with allegedly intimidating jurors as deliberations remain deadlocked. Then I react to Jemele Hill’s argument about capitalism and a father’s emotional testimony blaming sanctuary policies after his daughter was reportedly paralyzed in a crash involving an undocumented driver.

In this episode, I break down the viral Arkansas police video showing a state trooper pulling a man from a vehicle by his dreadlocks and punching him during an arrest. I show what happened before the viral clip, including the high-speed chase, repeated attempts to stop the vehicle, and the commands given after the pursuit ended. Then I explain why judging police use of force requires looking at the entire encounter, not just the few seconds that go viral.
I also give the latest update in the Lindsey Clancy trial after jurors told the judge they were unable to reach a unanimous verdict and were ordered to continue deliberating. Plus, I react to the deadly random stabbing in Times Square that left a Bank of America vice president dead and ended with police fatally shooting the knife-wielding suspect after she allegedly threatened officers and refused to surrender.

In this episode, I break down a massive child recovery operation in Florida that located 163 missing children in just five days. I explain why protecting vulnerable kids should be one issue every American can agree on and why law enforcement needs the resources and support to aggressively pursue anyone exploiting or abusing children.Then we return to the Nolan Wells case after people accused Ocean Springs High School of failing to honor Nolan at its season-opening football game. I show what the school actually did and explain why getting the facts matters before fueling more outrage. Plus, I give the latest update in the Lindsey Clancy trial as jury deliberations continue, including my concerns that jurors in such a high-profile case were allowed to go home for the weekend rather than being sequestered.

In this episode, I break down the Lindsey Clancy case as the jury weighs whether she was criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children. I look at the arguments surrounding postpartum psychosis, prescription medications, alleged planning before the killings, and the prosecution’s evidence, while explaining why this case requires looking at the facts instead of blindly choosing a side. I also react to Stephen A. Smith firing back at critics who attack him publicly but refuse his invitations to sit down and have a real conversation.
Then I sit down with John Hewett, a witness who was at Horn Island on July 4, for new details in the Nolan Wells case. Hewett describes seeing one of the boats leave the island, encountering several of the young men later in the channel without Nolan, and speaking directly with Nolan’s mother shortly after he disappeared. He also describes the conditions at Horn Island that day, what he witnessed around the group, and why he believes the racial narrative that later surrounded Nolan’s death does not reflect the community he knows.

In this episode, I react to the outrage surrounding Good Good Golf after a staged commercial sparked accusations of sexism and violence against women. I break down the ad, the apologies, the companies distancing themselves from Good Good, and the backlash directed at the woman who actually appeared in the commercial. Then I call out what I see as a massive double standard in how people decide what entertainment is acceptable and what suddenly deserves cancellation.
Then I respond to Jelly Roll taking more shots at President Donald Trump during his late-night appearances and explain why I think his newfound political comedy deserves scrutiny.

I break down his account of what happened, the Sky owner's response, and the bigger controversy surrounding the WNBA.

In this episode, I respond to D.L. Hughley’s list of alleged racial injustices and break down the stories behind the claims, including the Texas Roadhouse controversy, Black women leaving the workforce, the Nolan Wells case, alleged lynchings in Mississippi, and the prolonged power outages in Gary, Indiana. I explain why I believe too many people are looking for racism instead of demanding facts, accountability, and solutions inside our own communities.
Then I react to Austin Metcalf’s father, Jeff Metcalf, speaking out about the disturbing information revealed about both Austin and Karmelo Anthony. Plus, Charles Barkley, Stephen A. Smith, and Stephen Jackson weigh in on whether biological men should be allowed to compete in the WNBA, and why the league needs to finally draw a clear line

Then we get into the outrage over Target’s controversial Halloween costume and the backlash that forced the company to pull it. Plus, I react to the bizarre story involving the 49ers owner and an alleged prostitution sting, and explain why success, money, and status don’t excuse making reckless decisions when nobody is watching.

In this episode, I break down the latest in the Karmelo Anthony case after a new judge officially denied his request for a new trial.

Then we get into former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom being removed from a WNBA game after showing up in a shirt defining a woman as an “adult human female,” and his argument that the league’s own rules leave the door open for him to play.

In this episode, I break down major developments in the Karmelo Anthony case after previously unseen information about both Anthony and Austin Metcalf was revealed. We look at allegations involving fights, threats, weapons, bullying, and racist behavior on both sides, and I explain why none of Austin’s past means he deserved to die. I also explain why Anthony’s own alleged history could become a major problem if his effort to secure a new trial succeeds.
I also reveal the intent-to-sue letter sent to Al Sharpton over statements involving Warren Hudson, Jax Pitalo, and Morgan Seymour in the Nolan Wells case. Then I respond to Elliott Connie after he accused me of lying about being arrested as a child. Instead of arguing about it, I call my mother, brother, and father live on the show and let them tell you exactly what happened.
