This week’s episode is packed, Bubble fam! We kicked things off with the wild clip of Ray J crashing Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon shower in nothing but a Speedo, and let’s just say the internet had plenty to say about it. From there, we shifted gears into something much heavier—the tragic story of the late Angie Stone’s family filing a lawsuit against a trucking company after that devastating car crash. We unpack what this means for her legacy and the fight for accountability.

We also couldn’t ignore the drama between Jack Osbourne and Roger Waters, where Jack fiercely defended his late father, Ozzy Osbourne, after some incredibly insensitive comments. From family grief to family unity, we give our take on why defending a loved one’s legacy matters. On the lighter—but still messy—side of things, we talk about the HR chief who filed for divorce after being caught on the Kiss Cam at a Coldplay concert. You can’t make this stuff up!

In another headline making waves, Tamera Mowry-Housley schooled the internet about biracial genetics and how it shows up in her children. We break down why representation and education like this matter in the conversation about race and identity. And to close, we dive into a deeper discussion around the film Black & Blue (2019) with Tyrese Gibson and Naomie Harris, reflecting on how it mirrors the real-life corruption in law enforcement and connects to the ongoing fight against police brutality.

And since we’re in September, we also take time to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month—honoring the vibrant history, contributions, and influence of the Latin community. It’s an important reminder to uplift voices, stories, and cultures that continue to shape our world.

This episode is full of hot topics, hard truths, and important conversations. You don’t want to miss it.

DISCLAIMER: We want to remind our listeners that we do NOT condone sending hate, harassment, or any kind of negative messages to anyone we talk about on this show. Our goal is simply to share the stories and offer our own opinions on the situations we cover.

On this episode of The Bubble Chat, we’re putting on our Orange (well… sort of) to stand behind The Day The Sky Turned Orange, a moving production from Z Space and San Francisco Bay Area Theatre Company opening this week. The play opens tomorrow and runs through October 5, and we’re thrilled to shine a light on it.

We also address heartbreaking news out of Minneapolis, where a Catholic school tragedy has left an entire community in mourning. We’ll be pointing to resources that can help parents and kids navigate difficult conversations around gun safety.

In lighter news, we dive into the buzzworthy headlines: the internet can’t stop talking about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement, Snoop Dogg’s public apology following his remarks on an LGBTQ moment in Lightyear, Tamar Braxton’s clapback amid her health recovery, and Mýa’s candid thoughts on why she’s happy without pursuing relationships or motherhood.

To close things out, we reflect on a major milestone: it’s been five years since COVID-19 first changed the world. We share how that year shifted our perspectives, reshaped our daily lives, and still impacts us in ways we may not always realize.

This week on The Bubble Chat, we’re covering a mix of pop culture, entertainment, and some real conversations that need to be had.

We start off with Mean Girls director Mark Waters revealing that Rachel McAdams originally auditioned to play Cady before Lindsay Lohan landed the role. It’s wild to imagine what that version of the movie would have looked like!

Then, we get into Audra McDonald speaking out about a boundary violation she experienced over an autograph — a reminder that respecting personal space matters, even with celebrities.

From there, we dive into why intimacy choreographers are becoming so important in high school theatre. These roles help create a safe environment for students while still bringing honesty and authenticity to performances.

We also touch on Roblox, which is facing a lawsuit over child safety concerns. Parents and kids spend so much time on this platform, so these conversations about online safety are more important than ever.

On a much heavier note, actress Ashley Argota has opened up about the emotional, financial, and physical abuse she allegedly suffered from her mother while growing up in the entertainment industry. We discuss how stories like hers shed light on the darker side of child stardom.

And finally, we look back at an episode of That’s So Raven where Raven experiences racial discrimination in the workplace after a job rejection in her vision. It may be a Disney Channel classic, but the themes are very real — and it’s a reminder of why we can’t afford to overlook or minimize behavior like this.
