When you walk into an Abercrombie & Fitch store - just know, that they’re watching you. They know that most likely you will take a right upon entering. They know approximately how long you will stay in the store. What the scent and the music of the store does to impact your spending.  But most importantly - they know that you were lured in by the shirtless guys standing out in the front. Each employee is meticulously hand selected for their looks and attitude. It’s all about the brand.  This is all the work of then CEO, Mike Jeffries, a “mad genius.” Who has now been indicted for running a sex trafficking ring of male models.  His alleged ties and connections to Jeffrey Epstein and Diddy are starting to come to light. With everyone wondering - how did this go on for decades?

It’s the middle of the day in South Korea. Koreans are at work, grabbing lunch, picking up their kids from school, minding their own business.  Amongst them is an American man named Ramsey- who clearly does not look like he’s up to any good.  He’s live-streaming on his phone while glancing from side to side.  When he feels the coast is clear he takes out his portable speaker… and starts playing… Diddy’s song “Last Night.” He runs in front of the camera, takes off his shirt, and starts pouring baby oil down his torso.  He starts dancing on the female figure in front of him. Sexually rubbing his body on her frame.  This video will go viral in South Korea. And a new game will start - hunting Ramsey.  Objective of the game? Hunt Ramsey.  Find Ramsey.  Punch Ramsey. Because the female figure he tried smothering in baby oil is not any random statue. It is the statue representing the hundreds of thousands of young girls who were taken, enslaved, and SA’d dozens of times per day for years during the war.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

In September 2024, Eminem released a new song - the lyrics read: “I’m like a R-A-P-E-R  Got so many SAs  Wait  He didn’t just spell the word rapper and leave out a P-Didhe? RIP, rest in peace Biggie and Pac  Both of y’all should be living  Cause he might put a hit on me like - Keefe D get em” Notorious BIG & Tupac were two of the most influential musicians in the world.

A mysterious new book starts making its way to the top of the Best Sellers category on Amazon books. It just doesn’t make sense though. The book isn’t authored by a well known author… on top of that, it’s quite a pricey book.  59 pages.  $22. Reviewers say it’s riddled with typos and factual inaccuracies. Why is it suddenly on the best sellers list? The title is: “Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey For Justice From The Other Side” It claims to be a memoir written by Kim Porter, Diddy’s ex gf, and the mother of his 4 children.  Part of the introduction reads: “He was so charming - a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A devil and I fell for it. This story must be told despite the fact that it will hurt my children. I cannot hide it any longer. Sean Combs must be stopped....” But there’s no way Kim Porter published it herself - because she passed away in 2018.  So who wrote it? The author claims he received a flash drive from close sources. But is he trustworthy?  But more importantly - why are netizens calling for Kim Porter’s death to be re-investigated?
