Echo Chamber

Today's #ChinCheck reflects on all the action from Tyron Woodley vs Gilbert Burn's at UFC Fight Night from the Apex AND Craig Jones vs Vagner Rocha at Submission Underground 14.

Look, this weeks #EFTV, had to air some ish out, OK! 

So, we look at the new twist in the Carole Baskin story and address the Myka Stauffer situation. BUT, then it's time to talk about the BS that's going on right now! The injustice of George Floyd, Sammantha Ware taking Lea Michele to task and Mayor Hal Marx!

PLUS, we checked out the FX on Hulu show 'Breeders'.  

AND, things seemed to play out, that our Audible book of the week is Reni Eddo-Lodge 'Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People about Race'. 

This week:

- Carole Baskin now owns Tiger King's zoo!

- Myka Stauffer rehomes adopted son!!!

- We NEED to talk George Floyd!!!

- Lea Michele's non apology!

- "I renounce my white privilege".....who knew that was a thing!?!
