In this episode of The Amanda Seales Show, comedian Jackie Fabulous joins the group to discuss some of the week’s top headlines and personal hot takes. First up, President-elect Donald Trump announces he will nominate TV personality and heart surgeon Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a decision that raises questions given Oz's controversial background. Then, the team dives into a lawsuit filed by business owners in the George Floyd Square area, who are suing the city of Minneapolis for $30 million. They claim the city's neglect in addressing rising crime, infrastructure issues, and lack of police presence has devastated local businesses, including Unity Foods (formerly Cup Foods). 

The group also shares their thoughts on Thanksgiving food—specifically, the dishes everyone loves but that some can't stand (you might be surprised at the disagreements!). And finally, the conversation takes a more personal turn as they discuss how to truly know when you're in love.
