#The12HubPodcast
TIn Episode 26 of The 12 Hub Podcast, we're diving deep into the Sydney Sweeney and American Eagle "great genes" ad controversy. Is it a clever play on words or a tone-deaf nod to eugenics? 🤔 We break down the ads, the outrage, and whether it was all just a brilliant marketing ploy.
We also cover the latest headlines, including Deion Sanders' recent health scare (and Karrueche Tran's surprising appearance), Antonio Brown's shocking fugitive status, and Gilbert Arenas' run-in with the law. Plus, we share a wild personal story about getting arrested over a traffic ticket, discuss the fallout from the Shannon Sharpe situation, and touch on the recent tragedies in Hawaii and New York.
It's a packed episode with hot takes on pop culture, sports, music, and more! Tune in and let us know what you think in the comments.
