But First, Brunch episodes

  • Episode 25 with Kristin Keen
    What are we supposed to think when we're scrolling through Instagram and - BAM! - we're looking at Kim Kardashian West's 98% naked body? We talk about when nudity crosses a line and female body shaming.

    In the tweets we almost missed, Mayor Lenny Curry and journalist Melissa Ross were a perfect example of why we should pay more attention to what local elected officials say.

    Plus, this week's brunch guest is the founder of Rethreaded, Kristin Keen! We've been dying to talk to her for the longest time. She's saving the world one human trafficking victim at a time.

  • Episode 24 with Donna Deegan
    Justin Timberlake performing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show is super exciting (cause helloooo new music) but it also has us wondering about Janet Jackson. Is Justin secretly planning a redemption moment after 2004's Nipplegate? Could it happen? Should it happen? We also sat down with THE Donna Deegan. Legendary local news anchor, three-time breast cancer survivor, creator of the Donna Foundation and 26.2 Donna the National Marathon to Finish Breast Cancer, and the honorary queen of Jacksonville. To us, anyway.

    What was originally planned as a lighthearted, short Brunch Bite with a mini Golden Globes recap and an "I, Tonya" deep dive, unexpectedly became Jessica's outlet to tell her traumatic #MeToo story. Oprah's speech at the award show inspired Jess to share what happened because she finally believes there is power in her truth. And she is so right.

    New year, new brunch table topics! We catch you up on some exciting Jacksonville babe news that happened over the holiday break. Popular YouTube bro, Logan Paul started 2018 by posting a video about a nasty little adventure in Japan's "suicide forest". The fallout and his apologies make us question intent and how we, as viewers, crave sensationalism.
