On today’s Morning Hustle Podcast, we kick things off with Skip Bayless’s eyebrow-raising revelation: during his new podcast with his wife, he said she has a “hall pass” for Al Pacino—joking it could last a month. The energy shifts dramatically as we recap the Diddy trial's closing arguments. Prosecutors spent nearly five hours arguing that the hip-hop mogul ran a criminal empire rooted in coercion, drugs, and violence—including “freak-off” parties and even allegations of violence tied to Kid Cudi. Jurors now head to deliberations after hearing a high-stakes legal showdown.

Finally, the legendary R&B group B5 swings by to talk about their evolution from child stars to adult artists. Signed under Bad Boy Records and now independent, they discuss sibling dynamics, fresh projects, and a tour celebrating their roots and resurgence.

In today’s episode of The Morning Hustle Podcast, fans got the first official look at the Brandy & Monica “The Boy Is Mine” tour, launching this October through December with R&B icons Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, and American Idol winner Jamal Roberts joining the bill. The co-headlining tour celebrates their 1998 hit “The Boy Is Mine” and marks a full-circle moment after decades of rumored tension.

Off the stage, James Harden faces a civil lawsuit seeking over $100,000 after his nephew allegedly sexually assaulted a woman at Harden's Houston home. The suit claims Harden’s security team failed her and that Harden is vicariously liable—he and the Clippers have not yet commented. Lastly, Diddy’s defense team has rested in his RICO trial without calling any witnesses, signaling confidence in their argument that the women involved willingly participated in what prosecutors describe as “freak-off” sessions. Closing statements are underway, with jury deliberations expected soon.
