(29:30) Kobe's Legacy
Frank talks with TMZ Sports Senior Producer, Michael Babcock
Things start off well, then get heated when it becomes obvious TMZ was proud of how they broke the Kobe Bryant story, and not remorseful about the families and friends of the victims finding out about this tragedy through them and not the proper authorities. What we thought was a apology tour, turned out to be a victory lap for them and Frank calls him out on his grossness.
Then, we recap the ripple effect and reactions to Kobe's passing.
Nike has removed all Kobe Bryant merchandise . . . including sneakers and t-shirts . . . from Nike.com. Now, if you search for Kobe on the website, you get directed to a statement on Kobe's legacy.
Word has it that Nike is deciding whether or not to move forward with a previously planned release of the latest Kobe shoes on February 7th. Obviously, they wouldn't want it to look like they're trying to cash in on his death.
Novelist Paulo Coelho was writing a children's book with Kobe . . . but it won't see the light of day. Paulo Tweeted, quote, "I learned a lot by interacting with you. [But I'll] delete the draft right now, this book has lost its reason."

(54:25) A Study Finds Men Are Twice as Emotional as Women at Work
One of the most common sexist reasons you'll hear for why women can't be leaders at work like men is: Women are too emotional. Well . . . nope.
According to a new study out of England, men are actually TWICE as emotional as women at work.
The researchers say there are six big emotions we experience at work: Joy, surprise, anger, sadness, disgust, and fear.
And men are twice as likely to feel those feelings . . . and let their work affect their overall mood and happiness.
Men are also twice as likely to get upset or take it personally when they feel like their ideas are being ignored . . . and are 20% more likely to rage quit a job when things aren't going well.
