  • Sydney Sweeney Targeted, Brock Lesnar Sparks Debate, and Netflix’s Amy Bradley Doc

    In this jam-packed episode, we dive into the headlines, the hot takes, and the heated debates taking over pop culture and beyond. We react to the heckling and attention Sydney Sweeney continues to get after her American Eagle ad and break down the mixed reactions to Brock Lesnar’s controversial return to WWE. We also take a turn to discuss the chilling Netflix documentary, Amy Bradley Is Missing, and what makes her case so haunting.
