Lauren and Chan kick off this week's episode with some criticism toward those who seem to have a little too much luxury in their DNA, the Dubrow children. It seems they have left their nouveau riche nest before gaining some life skills, and the gals have some thoughts about it. Lauren and Chan then dissect Olivia Rodrigo's new album Guts and the songs that are allegedly about Taylor Swift. They chat about Taylor and Olivia's falling out with the release of her first album Sour, and why Taylor's actions may have been especially devastating to Olivia. The gals chatted about the ever relatable Meghan Markle and her perfectly photographed visit to In-N-Out. Lauren and Chan finished the episode with a follow up discussion of Danny Masterson's sentencing, and their utter disgust with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis for providing character statements.

We are joined again by Dr. Steve Turley (see book and YouTube link below). The guys dive right into President Trump?s speech to Congress last night. It appears that the country is having a return to normalcy. The pendulum swung so far to ab-normalcy over the last 4 years, that most of the country now realizes that we were ruled by Bonafide lunatics.
The Left is just seeing the world through these radical eyes, and the rest of the country is seeing now, how The Left see?s us all. I mean you have gone insanely left when you lose the Village People and Snoop Dogg.
