Do We Owe Sam Smith An Apology?

On the show today... Blake Lively's been cast in one of the most anticipated film adaptions in years, but fans aren't happy. We discuss why it is they're upset and what we know about the book-turned movie.  Plus The Bachelors has come to an end with the season finale airing last night. They took a big swing with the revamped format this year and we dissect whether we think it actually worked.  And Sam Smith dropped the video for their new song over the weekend and while we are absolutely loving it, some people are tearing into it online for its ‘overly sexual undertones’. It’s got us questioning why Sam Smith is such a magnet for online hate.
