I'm Back
Hey Problem Addicts,

Coming Out, Again
Hey Problem Addicts,
I've had a profound realization over the last two weeks--I'm highly sensitive. So no TV recap this week, this episode is just me, exploring what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and understanding how that affects my mental health.
I do briefly mention Garcelle Beauvais and her hosting Window Warriors, a great show I bet you've never heard of before!
Content Warning: suicide near the 27:00 min mark.

____ the Pain Away
Hey Problem Addicts!
Check out this fun, insider look at what it's like to try out and get on Jeopardy! Thanks Evelyn from Twisted Plot Podcast for the opportunity!
I have beef with The Circle's clone twist #JusticeforMichelle. I can guarantee NOT Everybody's Talking about Jamie on Amazon. However, the LuLaRich documentary is fantastic and needed another episode. Sex Education season 3 was one of my favorite Netflix series ever, and includes a fantastic cover of Peaches "Fuck the Pain Away". Trust me, it's a bop! I go on (and on) about Lee Pace. Then expose a problematic man and a problematic cable channel. Love on the Spectrum is my kinda reality dating show #JusticeforMichael and I think I'm Lawrence from season 1 of Insecure, but not really. Finally, Squid Game on Netflix is excellent and a thrill ride. See for yourself!

Hey Problem Addicts!
After a brief hiatus, I'm back!
In this episode, I retell the story of accidentally sliding into Nene Leakes' DMs, RIP Gregg. Also, the gay Korean microaggressor who told me he wanted Blasian babies, and then I dive into Netflix's The Circle Season 3. Then we end up on a road trip to Provincetown for an unsolved true crime story about the Lady of the Dunes before some thoughts on American Horror Story. #JusticeforAdinaPorter

Hey Problem Addicts!
I hope Gossip Girl gets better, because right now, it's not good. But I'll continue to hate watch it.
And I highly suggest you watch Who Killed Garrett Phillips? on HBOmax. It was disturbing, a real gut punch and chock full of problematic law enforcement officers.

Gossip Girl 2, Mother Nature 1, Eugene 0
Hey Problem Addicts!
I survived upstate New York, barely! Listen as I rehash a tale of four long, harsh days of rain, falling trees, a power outage, flash flood warnings and a bear sighting to bring you a recap of a Gossip Girl episode 2 safely from the peace and quiet of Brooklyn.
I also wonder whatever happened to that BMXer I crushed on, thanks for dropping Wild Side last week Normani, and teaching Boomers about Solange Knowles, also known as my favorite Knowles sister.

Me and You, Prada Handbags Too
Hey Problem Addicts!
As promised, it's the bonus episode all about my former job at Prada and how I got into slinging handbags.
This title makes little sense, because I had to split this episode into two parts.
Why?
Rain.
Seriously, it rained so hard I couldn't finish recording. It rained so hard that trees toppled over, knocking out power at the AirBnB my husband I were renting. So Me and You, Housewives and their Handbags Part 2 will be coming soon, unless Mother Nature just kills us all.

Hey Problem Addicts!
You may not be able to tell, but I really did enjoy the reboot of #GossipGirl, I just found it highly implausible. But I hope it continues to air for a long time. And I hope Ak and Max run away together and start an OnlyFans. #teamMakx
Plus, I go full on conspiracy theory with The Encore!
