Summary

We had a whole ‘nother episode planned, but the news be newsing. When Jussie Smollett was sentenced last week, it churned up all sorts of complex and complicado feelings in jh and Tre’vell, so they scrapped that day’s script and topic to revisit the conversation that had in December. So strap in to hear their reaction to last week’s decision, and see how their initial conversation holds up with what we know now. Plus, in this week’s Dis/Honorable Mentions segment, they both take aim at the alarming spread of anti-trans and anti-gay legislation being proposed across the country.
