S4E4 - Emotional Abuse Case Studies, Pt. 1: Jonah Hill and Sarah Brady

The internet was in full debate mode recently when Sarah Brady, Jonah Hill's ex girlfriend, shared text message exchanges between her and Hill that she labeled as "emotionally abusive." A lot of people saw these texts as what they were and called it out as emotional abuse, while many others responded incredulously that this behavior was normal in a relationship.

In the episode, Lexi summarizes the text exchanges and highlights instances of manipulation and Hill trying to control his partner under the guise of "boundaries and healthy communication."
