Back from our hiatus, we discuss the events surrounding the killing of George Floyd, and the current state of race relations in the U.S.

In this episode of J talk we have our long time friend Mona parker (Cunningham) on the show to talk about the push for Feminism in this country. Mona will be graduating with her psychology major this January. We will talk about the "Toxic Masculinity" saying that has been buzzing around social media. What do Feminism and Toxic masculinity have in common? whats the best way to go about pushing the feminist movement? Is it causing tension between men and women? Lets talk about it. 

On this episode of JTalk podacst we are joined by long long friend Mona Parker to discuss toxic masculinity. We felt that in order to discuss this topic it would be smart to have a woman's point of view to weigh in. Mona is currently studying psychology at the University of Utah. We discuss issues such as wage and gender gaps that fuel the feminist movement. Also how masculinity shouldn't be attacked, and what we think toxic masculinity is. Hope you enjoy!

This episode of JTalk is all about politics. We first address questions that have been raised about our credibility talking about hot topic subjects. We believe is important for everyone to have a voice in our society, and use it! We discuss the testimony of Michael Cohen in front of the House of Representatives. And a whooole lotta Trump.

In this episode we step back from the hot button issues to give our listeners an introduction to who we are and what's going on in our lives. We discuss the trending news story about the "zombie deer disease", and what we would do if a zombie apocalypse broke out. The episode is wrapped up discussing how clueless the average person is and the type of information they consume on a daily basis.
