1/14/25: Acclaimed Actor Struggling; Meta Rolls Back DEI; Zion Williamson Suspended


Listen Later

The world of culture, sports and society has a lot on the books for the show this week. We will get into interesting comments made by acclaimed actor Djimon Hounsou, who is lamenting struggling financially as an actor despite being nominated for Academy Awards and a Golden Globe. He blames it on systemic racism, but is there more to what he is going through? We will also discuss Meta rolling back its DEI policies in an effort to move more towards the center and less exclusionary, in its eyes, when it comes to hiring practices. More and more corporations are following suit. Is this a sign of things to come? Third, we touch on Zion Williamson being suspended by the New Orleans Pelicans for detrimental conduct such as being late to practices and a team flight. Another chapter in the book of Zion's thus far disappointing career when juxtaposed to his expectations, can Zion ever get right? We also provide takes on Wack 100 calling out DJ Akademiks for telling LeBron James' personal business, adult film star Bonnie Blue claiming a world record for sleeping with over 1,000 men in 12 hours, and Jason Whitlock responding to Cam Newton who claims that Whitlock's critique of Joy Taylor is out-of-place because he is "not that guy." Join us for what's sure to be a great show!
