I’ll be honest: I have never watched Mr. Beast and I probably never will. His whole look-at-this-extreme-thing-I-just-did schtick just isn’t for me. That said, hundreds of millions of people are fans of him. His YouTube series has billions of views and is one of the most watched shows on planet earth.

That may be why he recently hired a high-powered lawyer favored by the likes of Elon Musk to defend himself from allegations that he’s a “sociopath.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is in trouble with environmental groups, again, thanks to Ben Affleck’s divorce surfacing a ten-year-old story about a chainsaw and a whale carcass. The story, which appeared in a 2012 Town & Country profile of Kennedy’s daughter Kick, described an incident from Kick’s childhood. When she was six, a dead whale washed up on Squaw Island in Hyannis, Massachusetts. “Bobby—who likes to study animal skulls and skeletons—ran down to the beach with a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head, and then bungee-corded it to the roof of the family minivan for the five-hour haul back to Mount Kisco, New York,” according to the report.
