Why Everyone Is Drowning In Debt (and how to get out) - Caleb Hammer
"The guy was sitting where you sat and he said, you know, I'm one of those people that says things that need to be said. And I was like, okay, pause. Brought in the guy that he would actually have a consequence. And he was like, yeah, N-word. So I just said that."
Hammer reveals he intentionally brought his Black employee Tyler into a Financial Audit episode after a guest sitting in the hot seat announced he was someone who 'says things that need to be said.' The confrontation resulted in the guest using a racial slur, which Tyler consented to and even reacted to positively on his own stream, though white viewers claimed workplace harassment.
