TSDS 421 From ankle monitors to rooster fighter

On this episode of The Straight Dope Show with El Uno and TraB The Wonder bounce from wild hip-hop stories and NBA critiques to global politics and our favorite anime deep dives. We break down the absolute foolishness of the Gucci Mane and Pooh Shiesty ankle-monitor situation at Staples. We also get into the J. Cole and Drake dynamic , cancel culture , and a serious critique of Jay-Z's "black-owned" capitalism and status in the culture.

NBA talk gets heated as we call out Steve Kerr's rotational decisions and give props to the Sacramento Kings for lighting the beam Taking a step back from entertainment, we take a hard look at US foreign policy, historical tensions with Iran, and the frustrating reality of American political leadership and disaster relief.

Finally, the crew debates the ultimate anime question: subs vs. dubs?Plus, we put you on game with shows like Rooster Fighter and Solo Leveling , and share our unexpected favorite childhood movies, from The Pianist to Pan's Labyrinth.
