Alice and Annie talk about women in power. They break down the real statistics of women graduating with a bachelors or masters degree and comparing that to the percentage of women in executive roles. They also talk about the worry GenZ may be falling back in times with their goals and ambitions. The girls then discuss “what would’ve been” at the MET Gala this year.

Alice and Annie take a different approach to the podcast this week by talking perspective. We all carry different perspectives on the same topics and sometimes it’s shocking how different our ideas differ or can sometimes be far from the truth. This week, we bring up the drama surrounding Ellen Degeneres, James Charles, and the view of plastic surgery. The girls dive into how life and our perspectives now can change when we understand that of the past.

Alice and Annie talk about reality TV and all the TEA happening with the cast members. They dive into the controversy surrounding 90 Day Fiancé’s “Big Ed” and his relationship with Rose. Madi, and Peter from the Bachelor and his attempts to try and win her back. And the surprising duo from Too Hot to Handle that stayed together.

Alice and Annie briefly talk about Tik Tok and the issues many users face in terms of animosity. They also have a little fun talking about their experiences with Tinder Passport during quarantine.

Annie and Alice tell us the stories of their first tattoos.
