In this episode, we kick things off by sending our thoughts and prayers to those affected by the tragic crashes at DCA Airport and Philadelphia. We take a moment to reflect on these events and the impact they’ve had.

Then, we dive into some of the hottest topics making headlines! We talk about the potential Target boycott after their recent policy changes, the fallout from Akademiks being banned on Twitch, and whether it’s fair to call out a big hip-hop Twitter account for finally listening to an “essential album” for the first time. Plus, we give our first reaction to The Weeknd’s latest album "Hurry Up Tomorrow" and to wrap things up, we discuss a single “Am I the Asshole?” situation that has us questioning the actions of one individual in a very controversial dilemma.

In this solo episode, Damian covers a range of trending topics making waves in the media. He begins with a discussion on the ongoing ceasefire in Gaza, providing insight into its global implications. The conversation then shifts to the growing controversy surrounding a potential TikTok ban set to take place starting Sunday.

Damian also dives into the latest news surrounding Drake’s defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group, followed by his thoughts on Squid Game Season 2 and then shares his excitement for the new season of You and other Netflix shows hitting screens in the upcoming week.

For NFL fans, Damian offers his predictions for the Divisional Round of the playoffs and the episode wraps up with Damian’s music recommendation of the week, along with an engaging Am I The Asshole? scenario that raises questions about relationships and morality.
