From topping podcast charts to dragging billionaires, we’re covering all this weeks mess and news. Interest on student loans is returning on August 1, Nicki Minaj is back at it with Jay-Z (and somehow Beyoncé), Diddy’s fate gets sealed this fall, and Texas + New Mexico are underwater with zero help. Philly’s sanitation workers said nope, Big “Beautiful” Bill ain’t foolin’ nobody, and the Trump circus continues. BTW Words With Wista just hit the Best 100 Black Pop Culture Podcasts (#27, thank you very much!) and the Top 70 Gossip Podcasts (#55)! Thank you Wista Gang!
