2 Girls, A Pod, Hosts and some Guests. With different personalities and walks of life. Be prepared to have interesting and engaging discussions addressing various issues led by these young educated women.
Listen to them rant, joke, and call out uncensored problematic topics. Do you know what a tampon tax is? If dating your friend's Ex is Ok? Why you can't leave that toxic relationship?? or Why being Black at work is a whole ass struggle?!! Press play and learn something new!
There are many steps to fixing a problem.
First step is admitting one exists.
Five Black women and girls were killed every day in the United States in 2020, as a national increase in gun violence during the pandemic took a heavy toll on some of the country’s most vulnerable people. In all 1,821 Black women and girls were killed in 2020. That was an additional 461 women and girls who were murdered in 2020 compared with 2019 – more than one additional killing a day. Black women and girls in the US are four times more likely to die by violence than white or Hispanic women. Black female characters are more likely to be shown as violent than white female characters (29.3% compared to 24.6%) and twice as likely to be violent as other female characters of color (14.8%). Is that supposed to be subconsciously saying something? Let's dissect.

Problem #71: ROE vs. WADE a minute!
Roe v. Wade, (1973), was a landmark decision (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_landmark_court_decisions_in_the_United_States) of the U.S. Supreme Court (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Supreme_Court) in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_States) approved the right to have an abortion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion). The decision struck down many federal and state abortion laws (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_law), and fueled an ongoing abortion debate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_debate) in the United States about whether, or to what extent, abortion should be legal, who should decide the legality of abortion, and what the role of moral (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_aspects_of_the_abortion_debate#Philosophical_argumentation_on_the_moral_issue) and religious views (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution#Establishment_of_religion) in the political sphere should be. Curtailing abortion rights is expected to have a disproportionate effect on low-income pregnant people who do not have the means to easily travel to a more permissive state and women of color.

Problem #70: You are Fatphobic.
Fatphobia is the fear and hatred of fat bodies. “That encompasses a whole bunch of things, namely weight bias and weight stigma, such as the idea we see people of higher body weight as lazy, and unintelligent, or disgusting.” The harmful effects of fatphobia are a constant for people in larger bodies. “It is more intense against women,” and most of the data on the subject is based on the male/female binary. We are more likely to see positive examples of high-weight men than women in the media. So lets discuss, are you fatphobic or...?
