Show notes

In episode 53, we cover the union we didn't know we needed of Drake's dad and reality star Queen Tiffany Pollard. We also discuss Gina Rodriguez's recent usage of the N-word in pop culture and ask the ever-present question, "who is allowed to use the N-word?". And we top it off with this week's main topic: marriage. Do we want it? Are we ready? Is it even necessary? What are our views of a healthy relationship?
