Summary

This week on The Brilliant Idiots, the guys debate the Oscars and why Michael B. Jordan might take home Best Actor, while questioning if Timothée Chalamet is truly a Hollywood superstar yet. They break down celebrity PR runs, movie star mystique, and why legends like Leonardo DiCaprio and Matthew McConaughey still dominate the conversation. Of course, the episode wouldn’t be complete without the usual chaos — from locker-room level debates about bathroom etiquette to a breakdown of NBA stat-padding and the legend of Wilt Chamberlain supposedly sleeping with 20,000 women… and more!! ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: ⁠⁠https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots⁠⁠ Jess Hilarious - Til Death Do We Parent - ⁠Pre Order⁠ 2Chainz - The Voice in my head is God - ⁠⁠Pre Order⁠⁠ The Black Family Who Built America - Cheryl McKissack Daniel -⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Uncommon Favor - Dawn Staley - ⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks- By Charlamagne Tha God - ⁠⁠Order Link⁠⁠ Check out Andrew Schulz - ⁠⁠www.theandrewschulz.com⁠⁠ Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" - ⁠⁠https://blackeffect.com⁠⁠ Checks out Alex AM Mornings Comedy Learn more about your ad choices.
