The latest podcast episode offers an engaging blend of cultural commentary, nostalgia, and debates that tackle both movies and music. The hosts kick off the conversation with reflections on the cult classic Big Trouble in Little China. While one host felt a nostalgic connection, the other struggled to connect, admitting the film's fast-paced action might resonate more with those who experienced it during its prime. This leads to humorous discussions about cultural representation and characters' dynamics. The spotlight then shifts to Billboard's controversial “Top 25 Female Rappers of All Time.” While heavy hitters like Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, and Lauryn Hill dominate the list, the hosts voice strong opinions about rankings, questioning placements like Lauryn Hill's top-three spot due to her limited rap catalog. They also highlight underappreciated talents like Shauna and critique the absence of certain deserving artists. A recurring theme explores how music resonates personally. The hosts candidly discuss how emotional connection shapes taste, particularly in how men engage with female rap. They emphasize the need for authenticity in music appreciation rather than societal performance.

John Cena has finally turned “Heel” In wrestling, a "heel" refers to a villainous or antagonistic character. Heels are the "bad guys" in the storyline, often engaging in underhanded tactics, cheating, or trash-talking to provoke the audience and their opponents. People have wondered if John Cena would ever “turn heel” but we no longer have to wait because at Elimination Chamber Toronto, Cena shocked the world winning the Elimination Chamber match, beating up Cody Rhodes and aligning with The Final Boss, The Rock. With Drake in the building! What does this mean for WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas?
