In this episode of The Karamo Show, host Karamo brings together Elmer, the son‑in‑law, and a family member (identified as Speaker B, likely the mother‑in‑law) for a heated confrontation. Elmer claims he was drugged and sexually assaulted, asserting he has stopped using drugs except for occasional weed and prescribed Percocet for a back injury. Speaker B repeatedly accuses him of lying, questions his drug use, and challenges his story about a party and how his wife’s mother had keys to their apartment. The discussion shifts to allegations of infidelity, focusing on Elmer’s Instagram conversations with a woman and whether that constitutes cheating. Both parties exchange accusations, with Speaker B calling Elmer a liar and Elmer defending his integrity, emphasizing his desire not to lose his wife and children. Karamo attempts to mediate, asking clarifying questions about the party, the keys, and the state of the marriage, while also noting the show’s return for a second season. The tone remains confrontational and emotionally charged, highlighting deep family conflict and the looming threat of divorce.
Chapters
Well, everyone, I think it's time to meet your daughter's husband, Elmer.
Oh, he need to sit his ass over there.
We're gonna meet Elmer and he's gonna sit on that side of the couch. So everyone, let's say hello to Elmer.
First and foremost, I have nothing to lie about. I was sexually assaulted, I was drugged. Can I say something?
No, you cannot.
I stopped using drugs.
Stop talking.
I stopped using drugs a long time ago. I smoke weed right now a little bit.
Ooh, you're freaking lying.
Listen, excuse me, excuse me. Really? Excuse me. You what? I smoke weed right now.
Really? What about your Percocets you pop?
Can I stand up?
Every day. Come step over here.
What about them? I pop Percocets 'cause I broke my back. Oh, really?
Oh, you broke your back? If your back's broke, how in the hell you walking around?
It's a Karamo line.
Huh? Tara, Tara, Tara, I wanna hear his side. Let me hear his side.
I need you to make this a joke.
Come take a seat now for me.
I came over here to make it dead serious.
Okay.
I'm on the verge of losing my wife. That bum shit. I'm far from a bum.
Take a seat for me. Let me hear your side. What about, so you're saying in this party that you feel like—
What party that you threw for my daughter?
Listen, at the end of the day, I don't wanna lose my wife or my kids. After my little experience, I told her to ask her mother a million times. Why would I keep saying this? Why would I keep saying it if nothing never happened to me? I'm not gonna lie about that. The only person who had keys to my apartment was her mother.
Oh no.
You're saying that at first, 'cause I'm trying to keep consistent with the story, that at first it was a party, but then you're saying she had keys to get in by herself?
Listen. Karamo.
So was there a party or not? I'm just trying to get this.
Listen, my wife had a party. I could have said, I'm gonna throw you a party for your birthday because I know you ain't been feeling a little up to it or whatever. But you can listen, that you can ask about my, ask her what she come out here for. See what I'm saying?
I can't do the party. Because you've lied so much, you can't even keep your story together.
Have y'all ever gotten along in your family?
Hell no.
It been days she came to me and said, son-in-law, and give me a hug that you doing a good job by the kids.
And that's when you had a job. Well, what are you doing to help yourself?
I gotta have a job to get your respect.
No, you gotta keep a job to get my respect and keep a job to take care of my grandkids.
It's been 14 years that you and your wife been together. Yes. Why would you think that she'd wanna break you up? I mean, because of what?
They ain't even been together for 14 years. I know her brothers, I know her sisters. The other son, I can call him right now. His number in my phone. He don't fuck with his mother.
Oh yeah?
He don't fuck with his mother and he will come out and say, I don't fuck with my mother.
Oh yeah?
For your son to tell me that the one who you wanna sit on me when we going through something, to tell me that, man, I ain't got nothing involved to do with that.
Do you honestly think that she's the only issue in your relationship?
Listen, listen, I don't pass up everything I ever been through with her. I keep it so real that she know I keep it real.
Have you ever cheated on your wife?
No.
Never?
Listen, ever since I got married, I never cheated. Have I talked to a female on Instagram? Only on Instagram, yes. Yes, that's it. That's it, that's all. And then when I got caught, I said that I would never do it again or I would never meet no black people.
So you don't believe that talking to a woman on Instagram is cheating?
I mean, yeah, so I changed it. You feel what I'm saying?
So the question was, did you cheat? And you said no, so you have cheated.
Listen, 'cause—
Haha, Karamo, you think you're funny.
It's not funny though. Thank you.
I'm just listening.
I'm just trying to, I'm just taking notes. I'm taking notes to get both sides. So in your opinion, why are you so close to divorce?
Because at the end of the day, It seems like that it doesn't matter what I do. Somebody in my wife ear, I can see the change in her.
