Mean Girl

In this week's episode, Alex Bennett and Jordyn Woodruff discuss extravagant push presents and luxury designer bags (Pookie got an $85k purse?!). They also discuss the awful Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry situation, and explore the topic of narcissistic ex-boyfriends. Finally, they touch on the difficult feeling of realizing you're not your best friend's best friend when you're not asked to be a bridesmaid.
