Episode description

First off, Baby D is out due to a family emergency. Please send nothing but love and prayers her way. But, let’s get into it. Fires are still burning through Southern California, and the city of Los Angeles wants to make sure their firefighters are appreciated by treating them to the soothing vocals of John Legend (2:23). To make matters worse, these men are incarcerated. They could’ve at least been treated to Sexxy Red (13:17). Speaking of which, Sexxy Red and Bruno Mars are dropping a new strip club anthem today (22:50). Once Demaris gets back, Rory has a few takes about Bruno he wants to debate her on. Then, we touch on the news that A$AP Rocky will not take a plea deal and will go to trial for gun charges (43:11). If he gets put behind bars, the whole C-Block better be using Rihanna’s “Fenty” line. We then get interrupted with breaking news about Kendrick Lamar’s announcement that SZA will be joining him for the Super Bowl Halftime Show (I promise this segment went fine) (57:10). We also discuss Mal’s idea to Uber to keep women safe (34:30), a wild piece of Mississippi legislation (53:00), and what Beyonce’s announcement could be about (1:16:50).
