I need to rant!

There's some topics that have been heavy on my chest for some time and I need to talk them out. Thanks for listening!

In this episode I discuss the one Met Gala look that bothered me most (you'll be shocked!), Kim Kardashian trying to become a lawyer, and my secret obsession - Kardashian/Jenner babies.

*CORRECTION*

I said that Regina King became an actress at 40 - I meant Regina Hall! Regina King has been acting since she was a teen on 227!

I also said the Regina was a teacher before acting - that was actually Jesse Williams! I'm sure other actors used to teach as well though!

Here's a photo of Lena Waithe looking angry at this year's Met Gala

Here's one of the Instagram accounts you can follow for pics of the Kardashian/Jenner kids. Yes, even Dream!
