The crew is back with another episode of Say Less, Say More, and this week we’re asking a question that might be uncomfortable because the answer could be… yes.

We start with the WNBA and the heated conversation surrounding DiJonai Carrington and Sophie Cunningham, including Carrington’s comments about white privilege, the way Black and white players are treated by fans and media, and how race and culture continue to shape the WNBA conversation. We also get into the larger transgender debate and ask whether the WNBA has become one of America’s newest culture-war battlegrounds.

Then we take a look at bottom-feeder culture and the internet’s obsession with rage bait, crash-out culture, dysfunction and controversy. Are the worst people becoming the biggest cultural influencers because the algorithm rewards bad behavior—or are creators simply giving audiences what they want?

And then there’s Drake. Is Drake one of the greatest rappers ever while simultaneously being one of the lamest people to ever be that good at rap? From the 20-v-1 stream to the latest controversies, we discuss Drake’s legacy, authenticity, Kendrick Lamar’s impact on his public perception, the beef that refuses to die, and whether success has protected Drake from criticism.

We also talk about Dalton and Sako, influencer relationships becoming public content, and whether audiences are entitled to explanations when something appears to go wrong. Plus, ReZ brings the relationship conversation home with RelationTips, exploring the difference between sharing your relationship and giving the internet access to it.

We also discuss the College Football Coaches Poll and whether the NBA got Christmas Day right.

Add in Radical Jack’s movie reviews, Christopher Nolan and the future of original movies, quick hits, internet foolishness and plenty of arguments along the way.

This is Say Less, Say More.
