We have made it!!! THE FINAL EPISODE OF season #1! For our final episode we will have our very first in person guest Brandon Le. Brandon is an incredible human! He is extremely ambitious and incredibly talented when it comes to fashion, music, and modeling. We first met back in high school but really blossomed our friendship over the last view years, when we both found ourselves leaving toxic friendships to go start over chasing our dreams in Los Angeles, California. Today we lay it all out on the table and spill some juicy details on running from the police, letting go of friendships that no longer served us, and hear his coming out story.

In addition to that stick around for the end where we do a little drinking challenge called "Truth or Truly's"!! :) 

I do also want to take a moment and thank all of our amazing guests from this season. It has been a phenomenal journey learning to create long form content along side my favorite people. The support we've gotten has meant so much to us!

In today's episode we will be talking about some critical events in the last year that have led to a false, "ideal" body image for women. This is a topic that is very close to my heart. I love social media. However, I deeply feel some where along the lines between highlight reels, and photo editing apps, the positive impact social media CAN have is getting lost in the sauce. The team here at Smart Alec is here to rant and rave about it and share what we've witnessed and how it's impacted us. 

Unfortunately women's body image being up for debate isn't a new topic of discussion. For decades the perception of how we should act, dress, and carry ourselves has been consistent. 

We will be bringing on a phenomenal woman to see how she and her mother challenged the norms of those societal expectations. My wonderful grandmother Rosita Artis will be joining us. She was born in 1920s and is extremely hard headed. To wrap up the episode Christian and I will be closing out with some #COUPLESTRIVIA stick around to find out who wins!
