Episode description

HOT TOPIC

As a recipient of the Best Actor award at the BAFTAs and the Oscar's Joaquin Phoenix chose to use his raised platform to discuss raising up others who are less well-represented.


The conscientious actor refused to collect his BAFTA and dominated 2020's Oscar's finale with an open-hearted monologue about opportunity, privilege and visibility.


Our own Best Wokester MKH takes time to pick apart the integrity from the vanity of this moment in the spotlight. What is Joaquin's game? Which card is this Joker playing? Has the mask fallen off Hollywood's utopia?


Jay, King Dom and TJ share their opinions on this Hot Topic.
