Hey y'all, hey! I took a break after coming down with another sinus and respiratory infection. Cough time is over! I'm back! On this episode: What is monkeypox? Does President Biden's approval rating match his accomplishments? And as always, I'm letting you know what I'm watching, that way you can either watch it, too or I'm taking one for the team!

On this episode, the country is still either in shock or celebrating the fact that Roe v Wade has been overturned. What do you need to know about this decision? What's up with Ezra Miller?

Who's really de-humanizing others in society? As we, as a nation, are still reeling over the tragic, unfortunate and unnecessary murders of 10 beautiful souls in Buffalo, NY, this episode examines the origins of the term "super-predator" and the myth of "black on black" crime. It's a heavy episode.
