In this episode, I open up about the future of the podcast. I’ve made the decision to wrap it up after 5 more episodes. I truly appreciate every single listener who’s rocked with me—your support has meant everything. But with viewership dropping and the way these platforms are set up—always favoring new shows over existing ones—it's been a constant uphill battle.
I take full accountability too. I didn’t market like I could’ve. I didn’t put the show on YouTube, mainly because I worried about censorship and having to dilute the art just to appease algorithms. I wanted this space to stay real and unfiltered.
This episode also dives deep into the latest on Diddy. I break down why his bail was denied and why I feel it was unjust, especially when the judge used his admission of past violence, even though he was acquitted of the violent charges. It feels like the system is punishing him for winning.
We also discuss:
- The standing ovation Diddy received from fellow inmates
- A TMZ clip covering his entry into a drug and abuse program (which is standard)
- How prosecutors are scrambling to find case law around the Mann Act charges
- Why is that law rooted in racism and outdated morality policing
- How the sentencing phase will be shaped by whether Diddy shows remorse or signs of rehab
I also react to a local Fox News report on Maureen Comey being fired by Trump ... was it linked to Diddy, or is this about the backlash from Epstein? Either way, I call out the bigger issue: mob mentality, the danger of MAGA turning on itself, and what happens when your country runs on public opinion over facts, whether it’s celebrity scandals or conspiracy rabbit holes.
