In episode 31, we are joined by our homegirl, the amazing Francheska Medina aka Hey Fran Fran. We talk about the new wave of "heartbeat bills" and the looming republican challenge of Roe vs. Wade while examining the ever-present Pro Life/Pro Choice argument. From there, we explore the idea of the self-possessed woman. We ask ourselves if it is possible, as women, to achieve true agency over ourselves, our thoughts, and our bodies in a man's world. And if so, how? Join us.

Yall, We did not record the week of Thanksgiving and took a much needed break to be with friends, family and each other. Enjoy this reprise. We'll be back next week:)

Shanti pours herself a drank (or 3) while Antoinette takes an edible before the chaos begins...

The episode starts seriously with Antoinette sharing her frustrations about the men she is attracting (Shanti does her best to keep it together to console her). Things begin to unravel while listening to voicemails and the real shenanigans begin with us trying to figure out who knows the other better. We end with a deep discussion on which culture fries the best chicken. Join us...

In this week's episode, Shanti feels called by "The Void" but is pulled back by warm showers and daylight while Antoinette finally gives up on The Walking Dead and remembers the talent that is Kelly Price. In addition, Shanti goes on a tangent about often being misheard during sex which prompts Antoinette to give us some pointers for clitorial stimulation.

For our main topic, Shanti invites us to judge a book by its cover. Maybe our first instincts and snap judgments are the immediate vibe checks we need to lead our decision-making. Join us...
