Episode Details

Macklemore is making headlines by donating his entire $1 million tour salary to Palestinian relief efforts after being dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour for his outspoken support of Palestine. He’s also challenging Robert Kraft to match his donation, following Kraft’s refusal to let him perform at Gillette Stadium — a move that triggered other artists to pull out in solidarity. Macklemore insists his focus is on the everyday Palestinians fighting for survival and justice, while Colin Kaepernick draws parallels to his own career, accusing stadium owners of silencing dissent. Kraft counters by citing Macklemore’s past rhetoric as offensive to the Jewish community.
