Summary

On Ep.47 of WG: Bulgaria football needs to be checked heavily. Rihanna has her morals in check. Will Smith is getting ALL the checks & Google is handing checks to Climate deniers.

Episode Description

In a week where:

Stormzy makes the cover of Time Magazine as part of its "Next Generation Leader" issue.
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed wins the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize.
Eliud Kipchoge runs the first-ever sub-2-hour marathon.
Brigid Kosgei smashes Paula Radcliffe's Marathon WR. 2:14:03, 71-second gap.
Simone Biles becomes the undisputed GOAT of gymnastics, winning her 5th All-Around Gold and now has 24 medals, the most All-Time.
15 Yr old Tennis sensation Coco Gauff wins her first WTA Tournament.
Whitney Houston & The Notorious B.I.G become first time nominees for the Rock n Roll HOF.

In Sports: (6:16) Believe it or not. This isn't the first time this decade that black England players have been subjected to clear cut racism in Bulgaria. It happened in 2011. So when is enough, enough?

In Music: (18:14) Rihanna has made it clear that she doesn't mess with the NFL. But the backstory between the boss woman & the trash league goes back a decade.

In Film/TV: (31:20) I recently saw "Gemini Man" that stars Will Smith and I genuinely enjoyed it! So I thought it was time to talk about Will Smith, not from a film standpoint but in how he's not just about films anymore. He's diversified his portfolio in a great way in response to his cold streak in the box office.

Lastly, in Life: (46:07) A report has exposed Google to be donating money to organisations that actively deny the Climate Crisis. And it's not just people that have those nutjob sites that we laugh at in meme form, we're talking about people that have influenced the Presidency of the United States.
