Nick & Natalie Under Fire After Austen Kroll Interview + The Traitors Recap

POP 3:
I break down the backlash facing Nick and Natalie after their interview with Austen Kroll sparked criticism for crossing a line, prompting Cameran Eubanks to publicly call for an apology that still has not happened. I also unpack the escalating Beckham family drama after Nicola Peltz deleted all Instagram posts connected to the family, fueling reports of serious tension with Brooklyn Beckham and his parents David Beckham and Victoria Beckham. Plus, defense attorney Alan Jackson speaks out after dropping Nick Reiner as a client, denying money played a role as speculation grows.

I break down why Lisa Rinna and Candiace are playing exactly how fans would expect, and why Rob Rausch has emerged as a surprisingly strong Traitor pick. Early murders stunned Big Brother and Survivor fans, while banishments quickly shifted the game’s power dynamics. I admit I was bamboozled by Donna Kelce, and close it out with predictions on who is most vulnerable heading into the next round.
