FULL SHOW | Cardinal Robert Prevost Named First American Pope in History; Jay Z’s Roc Nation School of Music Under Investigation; Chris Brown Collects Another Diamond Certification as he Turns 36; and MORE

In a historic moment for the Catholic Church, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost of Chicago has been elected as Pope Leo XIV, becoming the first American pontiff. Pope Leo XIV is expected to continue the reformist legacy of his predecessor, Pope Francis. In his inaugural address, he emphasized unity, peace, and the importance of press freedom, calling for the release of imprisoned journalists and advocating for ethical considerations in the digital age  

Meanwhile, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation School of Music at Long Island University is under investigation following reports that students, promised a debt-free education, are facing unexpected financial burdens. The city’s consumer protection agency is examining claims that the institution misled students regarding scholarship coverage, leading to significant unanticipated debts. In the entertainment world, Chris Brown celebrated his 36th birthday by achieving a significant milestone: his hit single “Look At Me Now” has been certified diamond by the RIAA, marking over 10 million units sold and solidifying his status in the music industry.
