Why Are Mega-Stars Risking it All & The Peaky Blinders Problem

from Opposites Distract · host Opposites Distract Podcast

From Justin Timberlake’s viral “world tour” arrest video to Reacher star Alan Ritchson getting into a massive neighborhood street fight, Hollywood is officially going rogue. Jared Pike and Bo Yokely break down the chaotic reality of mega-celebrities taking reckless risks, why the news cycle suddenly feels like the 1990s, and Shia LaBeouf's recent public meltdowns. Plus, Bo gives his review of the new Peaky Blinders movie on Netflix, explaining why Tommy Shelby's ending felt rushed and why phenomenal actors like Barry Keoghan should absolutely never read the comments section.👇 Which segment won the episode for you?
