About this listen

 New episodes every Sunday with breaking epiosdes when stories develop.

Feuds: Power, Pride, and Payback takes you inside the most explosive conflicts between the world's most powerful people. From Hollywood legends to political titans, tech billionaires to music superstars, we explore the psychology behind epic battles that captivate the public and reshape industries.When current events heat up—presidential administrations fracturing over policy, tech moguls clashing with world leaders, entertainment industry power struggles—we deliver daily episodes tracking every twist, market impact, and social media explosion.

When the news cycle cools, we dive deep into legendary feuds that defined eras: Golden Age Hollywood rivalries that lasted decades, political partnerships that ended in betrayal, or family dynasties torn apart by ambition.Each episode peels back the public drama to reveal what really drives these conflicts: wounded egos, professional jealousy, ideological differences, and the relentless pursuit of power. We analyze the real-world consequences—careers destroyed, billions lost, political movements fractured—and ask why audiences remain endlessly fascinated by watching titans fall.

Whether it's breaking news about today's power players or untold stories from entertainment's golden age, Feuds delivers the drama, context, and psychological insight that turns celebrity gossip into compelling human storytelling. Because understanding these feuds means understanding power itself.

  • Fat F**k vs. Five Kids: How Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver's 16-Year Feud Finally Went Too Far

    Fat F**k vs. Five Kids: How Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver's 16-Year Feud Finally Went Too Far
    Nov 23 2025
    For sixteen years, Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver—two of Britain's most beloved chefs, both fathers, both wildly successful—spent an extraordinary amount of energy tearing each other apart in public. Ramsay called Oliver fat, untalented, a "one-pot wonder." Oliver fired back about cookbook sales and deep jealousy. It was petty, it was tiresome, and it was great for business.Then in 2017, Jamie Oliver said something that crossed a line neither man knew existed.

    Trying to de-escalate their feud, he mentioned that they were both fathers—Gordon had four kids, Jamie had five—and maybe they should stop "slagging off some kids' dad on telly."There was just one problem: Jamie didn't know that months earlier, Gordon and his wife Tana had lost their fifth child in a devastating miscarriage. The comment, meant to bring perspective, instead became the most painful moment in their entire rivalry.

    This Thanksgiving, we're exploring how two grown men needed their wives and children to finally tell them what should have been obvious all along: some things matter more than winning. It's a story about pride, grief, reconciliation, and what happens when you forget the person you're insulting has a family watching.

  • "The Unforgivable" Mo'Nique vs. Tyler Perry & Oprah - The 16-Year Blacklist That Demands a Reckoning

    "The Unforgivable" Mo'Nique vs. Tyler Perry & Oprah - The 16-Year Blacklist That Demands a Reckoning
    Nov 16 2025
    She won an Oscar. Then two billionaires destroyed her career for saying one word: No.In 2010, Mo'Nique stood on stage at the Academy Awards holding the highest honor in Hollywood—Best Supporting Actress for her devastating performance in Precious. Within months, her phone stopped ringing. The roles disappeared. An Oscar winner found herself blacklisted from the industry she had conquered.Her crime?

    Refusing to promote the film for free. Refusing to play the game. Refusing to be grateful enough.Sixteen years later, Mo'Nique is still fighting. And she's demanding something that Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey have spent over a decade refusing to give: a public apology.Lee Daniels broke the silence in 2022 with a public mea culpa that vindicated everything Mo'Nique had been saying. But the two executive producers who actually orchestrated her exile—Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey—remain silent. And Mo'Nique has made it clear: she will not stop, she will not back down, and she will not let them forget what they've done.From an Oscar victory to Hollywood exile.

    From private betrayals to explosive public confrontations. From blacklist whispers to a $260 million lawsuit that suggests Mo'Nique might not be the only victim. This is the story of what happens when a Black woman refuses to shut up and be grateful—and what it costs her.Some feuds end with forgiveness. This one ends when the powerful finally admit they were wrong.

    "The Five Days That Almost Killed AI: OpenAI's Thanksgiving Massacre"
    Nov 9 2025
    November 17, 2023: OpenAI's board fires Sam Altman via Zoom, sparking the most dramatic coup in Silicon Valley history. Over five days during Thanksgiving week, 95% of employees threaten to quit, Microsoft offers to hire them all, and the board's idealistic attempt to slow AI development spectacularly backfires. From Ilya Sutskever's tearful betrayal and instant regret to Sam's chess master response that turned termination into triumph, Marcus Reid reveals how a nine-minute video call nearly destroyed a $90 billion company. Two years later, Sam rules an AI empire worth $157 billion while his would-be usurpers are footnotes. In tech, nice coups finish last.
