Summary
Nicole and Sasheer went on their first roller skating adventure and lived to tell the tale! They also discuss United Skates, performative companies and deciphering what's real and what's a joke, thoughts about why OJ was found innocent, seeing through performative acts in general, police brutality, shaming people before 6 AM, pole dancing, and blaming bad behavior on your astrological sign. Then Nicole and Sasheer take the quiz "Which Disney Princess Are You Based On A Sushi Roll You Build." And of course, your questions are answered! This week a listener follows up on a previous story, and Nicole and Sasheer answer by acting out the scenario in question.
