The big news in sports this past week was that Deshaun Watson from the Houston Texan’s was traded to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for various top draft picks. This deal was also big news in the media and social media due to allegations of sexual misconduct by the player.

For Deshaun Watson, the deal is worth a whopping $230 million.

Criminal charges did not move forward in his cases. However, 22 civil lawsuits are still hanging over his head. Many of these allegations occurred under the pretense of Watson getting massage services. Apparently, warnings about Watson had been circulating in the Houston massage therapy community for a while. Many of these therapists had been sought out on Instagram.

This podcast is a conversation with Billy Dees and Erika, who is an advocate for survivors. The discussion covers the reactions on social media and how both Watson's supporters and detractors have voiced their opinions.
