Today we're talking about the Mr. Beast backlash with people saying that he's farming psychological torture for content.

This wild little Tay situation and the allegations coming out. Bedbugs rampaging through Paris, student loan payments restarting. This chaotic Kevin McCarthy situation. We've got this bullying scandal that might make your blood boil if you're anything like me.

We're going to talk about all that and so much more on today's brand new Philip DeFranco show you daily dive into the news, so just make sure you're subscribed and let's jump

into it. Starting with, Mr. Beast is now facing backlash and has found himself in a scandal thanks to

his latest challenge. And this because he recently tweeted a photo of a very white, sterile,

futuristic looking room and said, would you spend 100 days in this room with a random stranger for $500,000?

Right?

I guess like if everything that he did was like the Mr. B's philanthropy channel.

And I think what also got this a lot more attention was he also did this other tweet,

writing, I messed up. every day he lives in it, and it's been weeks, and he shows no signs of ever leaving. I'm going to go broke. And then the replies explaining that the person's been in there for over a month,

that the windows of the store have been blacked out and the doors locked. But of course, like all

things that blow up on social media, not everyone's on the same page. While you've got some people

tweeting that he's gone full-blown, wealthy comic book villain with black mirror-esque ideas. You have others saying he's not forcing anyone to do these things. That every
