A frustrating topic leads to a heated debate: Cancel Culture. What does it look like? Does it really exist or is it a facade? The Right and the Left clash over what's considered canceled and what's simply the public using their voices to hold the powerful accountable.

Is pulling up a 10-year-old social media post a relevant measure of someone's character? Should we boycott or cancel anyone in the first place? What does it do to us as a society when we play judge, jury, and executioner so flippantly? With Musician Spotlight on Red Rose Panic from Akron, Ohio.
