In this morning's episode, we dive into the bombshell batch of newly unsealed depositions in the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni saga — a treasure trove of revelations that take this feud to an entirely new level. We break down the biggest takeaways, the surprises, and what this means moving forward.
Plus, P. Diddy fires off a cease and desist to Netflix in an attempt to shut down 50 Cent's explosive new documentary series. We'll get into what he's alleging, why he's scrambling, and whether the streaming giant is likely to fold.
Also on the docket: The Bachelor's Maddie Pruitt is going viral again — this time for bizarre comments about "submitting" to her husband. We unpack the reaction, the theology she's referencing, and why her remarks have so many people scratching their heads.
And finally, Nick Viall and his wife are under fire after their fresh take on the Whitney Levitt controversy. We'll cover what they said, why it's landing poorly, and how the internet is responding.
All that and more on this morning's Rush Hour Podcast — your daily breakdown of the stories everyone's talking about. Tune in!
