This week on REWIND: The Podcast, the crew is asking the important question: Is Justin Bieber… okay?? We unpack the viral moment with him & SZA, dive into RG3 vs. Ryan Clark over Angel Reese, and throw some well-deserved shade at this year’s flop of an American Music Awards (except Miss Janet, of course!). Producer Gabe spills on his chaotic weekend after getting called out by Raven, we break down Broadway’s diva showdown (Patti vs. Audra vs. Kecia?!), and dissect Brendan Abernathy’s TikTok “moment.” Plus, we cover the Chrisleys’ surprise pardon, the juicy Summer House finale, and more hot takes straight from our group chat. Buckle up, sip something cute, and catch this week’s pop culture ride—messy, unfiltered, and way too much fun.

ABOUT REWIND: The Podcast - Hosted by the effortlessly charismatic duo Raven Dawson and Blake Rackley, REWIND: The Podcast is where pop culture past meets pop culture present—with a whole lot of personality in between. Fueled by a love for iconic throwbacks and today’s most talked-about moments, these two besties serve up unfiltered opinions, sharp humor, and a deep appreciation for the drama that keeps entertainment interesting. From Y2K nostalgia to red carpet chaos, award show upsets to reality TV scandals, nothing is off-limits. Whether they’re revisiting the cultural staples that defined an era or breaking down the latest internet-breaking headlines, expect hot takes, deep dives, and plenty of side-eye. If your playlist lives somewhere between classic R&B and current chart-toppers, if you still quote your favorite 2000s movies on the daily, and if you love a little (or a lot of) flair with your pop culture commentary—this is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. Press play, lean in, and get ready to REWIND.
