This week’s episode is all about race and bias on both sides of the food service industry. We’re talking about recent incidents at Starbucks, intra-racial discrimination, and how to fight implicit bias. We also have all the ridiculous topics y’all love, like how Oprah will lead you astray, magic flasks, and the allure of rosé. And of course some stunning Instacrushes and things we love, hate, and ate.
