Listen "YLB Week in History #2 - 18 years after GLADIATOR, Russell Crowe says kids these days have “no focus”"
Episode Synopsis
In Jan 2003, Russell Crowe became famous for “Gladiator”. 18 years later in Jan 2021, he became infamous for getting pissed at a tweet that called "Master and Commander", his other movie, “sleep-inducing”. He said kids have “no focus”, but does Gen Z actually have shorter attention spans? We debate this. And we also review our fav Reddit comments from the past week.
Here's the article about Russell Crowe vs the tweet
