Tuesday, 3 March, 2026
🔥 Question of the Week “Is liking something the same as cheating?” We tackle the idea that likes = cheating in modern relationships. Whether it’s liking someone’s pic, sliding in DMs, or tagging past flings — what actually crosses the line? We break it down with real-world examples, listener takes, and absurd scenarios that’ll make you rethink your thumb taps. 📰 Notable News 🏛️ Politics Sixth State of the Union Address wrap-up We recap the major themes and political sidebars from the latest State of the Union. What did politicians actually promise (vs. what got headlines)? And how are both sides spinning it? Somali community demands reparations In Minnesota, Somali community leaders and activists have publicly called for reparations and justice related to recent federal immigration enforcement and trauma — pushing for formal compensation and recognition of harms they say resulted from the operations. USA & Israel in conflict with Iran The U.S. joined Israeli military action against Iran, resulting in strikes that reportedly killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and sparked retaliatory missile and drone attacks throughout the region. The campaign has drawn mixed domestic reaction, market disruptions, and protests across U.S. cities. 🎤 Hip-Hop Corner 50 Cent vs. Harris family feud escalates The ongoing feud between 50 Cent and T.I./Harris family has taken another turn with T.I.’s son, Domani Harris, dropping a diss track aimed at 50 Cent — even referencing his late mother — adding fuel to rap culture chatter and social media chaos. We’ll unpack what this beef says about loyalty, legacy, and how hip-hop beef plays out in 2026 compared to the golden era. 📺 Pop Culture From viral beefs to pop culture memes, we chat about how celebrity conflicts mirror real-life nonsense — and how the internet amplifies everything absurd. 🏒 Sports Highlights USA Hockey Wins Olympic Gold USA defeated Canada in both men’s and women’s hockey at the Winter Olympics, with dramatic overtime outcomes and historical significance that sparked celebrations back home — and even a bit of controversy when public figures jumped into the spotlight. We break down the games, key players, and what a hockey gold means for American sports culture heading into the next Olympic cycle. 🥊 Fight Game Mayweather vs. Pacquiao Rematch Buzz Rumors and reactions continue to swirl around a potential rematch between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. We’ll touch on how the boxing world feels about revisiting one of the most lucrative fight nights ever — and whether nostalgia fights are actually good for the sport (or just absurd cash grabs). 📣 Closing Thoughts From international conflict to rap beef and Olympic upsets — this week’s news is a wild mix. Tune in as we put on the absurdity goggles and ask: what’s real, what’s performative, and what’s just chaos curated for clicks?   Voice Message by Clicking Here. 📲 Follow Us: Instagram/Twitter: @ThatsAbsurdPod #ThatsAbsurdPodcast #Trump #DrUmar #CardiB #Gunna #LilBaby #Consequence
