We cover everything from how people judge you based on your social media stats, posts, your "brand", and how talent can book or lose jobs based on that silly thing that half the time is a facade. In essence it can be absurd, but we talk about navigating the industry. The conversation takes a turn towards how to juggle finding peace while hustling towards success. Join your regular hosts Alikona Bradford and Jason Carter along with special guest J.C. Rubio from AfterBuzz TV.

It's amazing how quickly the industry will turn it's back on you for saying something they don't agree with. We cover it all, but had to talk about the Dixie Chicks/Beyonce scandal on the CMAs. Were the execs right for pulling all the material down due to trolls or should they have had the artists' backs? Should the Dixie Chicks been black balled in 03' for their George W. comment. What about that time Janet Jackson was banned from all MTV affiliates for Nipplegate? Or When Jane Fonda couldn't get a role for anything because she publicly supported the Civil Rights movement and the Black Panthers? Let's talk it out!!! Today your hosts Alikona Bradford and Jason J. Carter invite AfterBuzz TV host J.C. Rubio to join the conversation.

Why can Chris Brown batter a woman, fight random men, break court orders and STILL be chart toping celebrity entertainer? People still buy his music and support his career. While art maybe be separate from you personal vices (Mel Gibson and his drunken insults) Chris is on a whole other level. We delve into many of the random behaviors that have left some celebrities stars and still climbing while others tanked. Special guest AfterBuzz TV host Lex Michael, brings ups some super interesting points from sexism to strategically plotted behaviors (Miley Cyrus) that just work! ..Find us on www.hollywoodshitla.wix.com/inspire & @HollywoodShitLA on Twitter

Jason & Alikona relate and inspire on when it's time to draw the line between mediocrity and greatness. We often don't take a leap of faith towards our dreams because we fear the lack of security, however we feel success can only come when you are aligned within your own happiness. And, how can you find that happiness when you are weighed down by a job you may hate or an environment that keeps you in a place of despair. Study your craft and trust you are ready and deserve your dream....then tell your average, awful job that you're out!!!!
