This week, Sally interrogates some teens about the choices they've been making with their sex lives. Don't worry, it's just as creepy as it sounds; luckily you have me to filter through the cringe and pull out the hidden comedy gems and terrible 90s fashions.

To mark the recent passing of Phil Donahue, a true American treasure, this week I dive head-first into two simultaneous topics that I probably shouldn't, race and religion! Don't worry, as scary as the topics might be, we were always in good hands with Donahue, RIP
