This week, Diosa and Mala dive deep into the explosive federal case, United States vs. Combs. Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs faces five serious criminal counts and the details have captured the attention of many both online and offline. But beyond the headlines and viral TikTok accounts lies decades of violence, exploitation, and abuse. Diosa and Mala unpack the term "freak off," now part of the public lexicon thanks to court filings, but simply put--are abusive sessions masked as "play." What happens when private trauma becomes public spectacle? Diosa and Mala bring the focus back to the survivors and the systems that enabled their abuse.
