Episode Recap

Tim Pool and his co-hosts gathered for a lively discussion on Timcast IRL covering the latest lawsuit against YouTube star Mr. Beast over his massive Beast Games competition show. The hosts opened by examining the 54-page lawsuit filed in Los Angeles court on Monday, which alleged that contestants on the Amazon Prime show were subjected to unreasonable, unsafe, and unlawful employment conditions.
