    Oct 6 2025

    In this episode of Lost in the Script TV, we dissect how power, race, and privilege distort the meaning of justice — from Hollywood to geopolitics. (2:11) Sean “Diddy” Combs is sentenced to 50 months behind bars, reigniting debate over celebrity accountability and selective punishment in Black America. (13:28) American comedians face backlash for performing in Saudi Arabia, while Dave Chappelle jokes that it’s “easier to talk in Riyadh than in America,” raising questions about free speech and Western hypocrisy. (29:34) Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance becomes a flashpoint as ICE-linked threats emerge and Chicago raids separate families, exposing how immigration politics weaponize identity. (43:40) Outrage grows over Pete Hegseth’s decision regarding the Wounded Knee medals and the continued erasure of Native American history. (50:38) We examine the growing discourse around anti-Black misandry and its impact on Black relationships and media representation. (1:11:25) Finally, we explore the rise of “Soulaan,” a new term for Black American identity that’s sparking both pride and controversy. From Diddy’s fall to Saudi influence in entertainment, Blind Justice unpacks how systems of power decide who gets punished, who gets paid, and who gets to define the narrative.
