0:00.0 | All right. How's everybody doing today? Welcome to the show Happy Wednesday. I'm your host, |
0:19.0 | Amela Epinobi. And we've got Taylor in Nashville. Hey, how's it going guys? It is going great. |
0:28.4 | I hope you're having a fantastic Wednesday. Drop in the comments down below. Is this your |
0:32.8 | first time catching the show? Let me know. I always love to hear from you guys who are catching |
0:37.2 | this for the first time. We have much to discuss today, kind of a hodgepodge of stories that |
0:41.6 | are happening right now on the internet. We got Jonathan Van Ness, who is recently on |
0:46.8 | Dex Shepherd's armchair expert podcast talking about, you know, a multitude of different things, |

1:44.2 | that makeover for them. I don't know why I use the phrase put the gay men on them, but you all |
1:49.8 | know what I meant by that. I think Taylor, you said you've watched Queer Eye before, right? |
1:55.1 | Yeah, I was on a family vacation and somehow it ended up being on the TV while one of the family |
2:04.2 | children was napping. Yeah, we watched a couple episodes and it made me very uncomfortable, |
2:08.5 | but I had to tough my way through it for the piece of the family. That's interesting. I didn't |
2:13.0 | really mind the show. I've seen a few episodes of it. I always love a good makeover show. They, |
