FULL SHOW | Cuban Coast Guard opens fire on Florida speedboat; Cardi B throws fit at SNL over Nicki Minaj; Pinky Cole and K. Michelle joining Housewives franchise; Mo’Nique urges people to stop taking weight loss drugs; and More

This episode kicks off with dramatic global headlines, celebrity chaos, and major reality‑TV shakeups. The team breaks down the deadly confrontation between a Florida‑registered speedboat and the Cuban Coast Guard, a shootout that left four people dead and six injured. Cuban authorities allege the boat’s occupants—armed Cuban nationals living in the U.S.—opened fire first and were attempting a “terrorist infiltration,” prompting an international investigation and heightened political tension. The crew then dives into the explosive report that Cardi B allegedly flipped out backstage at SNL, destroying equipment after overhearing a joke referencing Nicki Minaj’s MAGA affiliation during rehearsals for the show’s 1,000th episode. Though the joke never aired, outlets report she threw her phone, punched a screen, and threatened to walk out before performing.  

Reality‑TV fans get big news as Pinky Cole and K. Michelle officially join The Real Housewives of Atlanta for Season 17, with Bravo signaling a major franchise reset. Cole enters with her Slutty Vegan empire storyline, while K. Michelle brings music‑industry pressure, a bold personality, and a shift into country music—all expected to shake up the cast dynamic. The episode then turns reflective as Mo’Nique urges fans to rethink the rising trend of GLP‑1 weight‑loss drugs. In an emotional message, she questions their long‑term effects, warns that celebrity-driven hype can push people toward unhealthy choices, and encourages listeners—especially young ones—to “love yourself enough” to trust the process rather than rely on quick fixes.
