Summary

This week: Jen dissects an article that says Gen-Z are offended by the thumbs-up emoji. Jen talks about how she got confused about which book she was reading and thought Prince Harry wrote a self-help book, how scary some white women are when you try to tell them that it’s a GOOD thing that Harry and Meghan are walking away from the Royal Family, an update on Jen’s parents social life and everyone’s favorite segment: more drama from the Next Door App.
