On Monday, rap mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested and charged with sex trafficking and racketeering. He has twice been denied bail and faces 15 years to life in prison. Host Brittany Luce is joined by NPR music editor Sidney Madden and legal affairs reporter Megan Cunniff to find out what this allegation means for Combs and whether this could be the start of a #MeToo movement in hip-hop.
Brittany is then joined by Tony Tullatimut, author of Rejection, to talk about the growing rejection culture, his book, and why online life can allow rejection to condense within us.
