Listen "BONUS Fryday: The Shedeur Sanders Incident: Unmasking Viral Humiliation Disguised as Humor"
Episode Synopsis
The so-called “prank” on Shedeur Sanders during the NFL Draft wasn’t funny. It was calculated cruelty disguised as humor. In this Bonus Fryday episode, I unpack what really happened when a 21-year-old adult used stolen confidential information to humiliate someone for views, clout, and laughs. This wasn’t some harmless joke. It was a public act of disrespect, with real consequences for dignity, trust, and professional ethics.We’re in a moment where humiliation is increasingly packaged as entertainment. But if your goal is to make someone feel small while others watch and laugh, that’s not a prank—it’s abuse. And the fact that this was filmed while friends giggled? That tells us everything about how far we’ve slid into normalizing cruelty.What would happen if this occurred in any other profession? Likely termination. So why do we accept less from people tied to sports or fame? In this episode, I break down:Why the Shedeur Sanders moment mattersWhat accountability should actually look likeWhy “just a joke” doesn’t cut it anymoreLet’s stop sidestepping the truth and start calling things what they are. If we want to change the culture, we have to get uncomfortable first.Join me in this conversation. Follow me @JenFryTalks on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, or connect on LinkedIn.
