In this episode, Shanti discovers Raising Caine's Chicken Fingers on a dark, cold night while Antoinette pays her condolences to Irv Gotti. We focus on our main topic after listening to very insightful listener voicemails about US farming and biracial coupling.

Is it wrong to want a man with height, muscles, and a lot of money or a woman with a fat ass, big breasts and a submissive nature if that is how our early ancestors choose their partners? Have we thrown the baby out with the bath water with our modern-day expressions of masculinity and femininity? Join us...
