20: Hollywood Controversies and Cancelations Throughout the Years
Melissa and I talk showbiz offenses and the rules that have changed since the 2000s.
Comedy can be hard to defend for some, but for us, it is all about context.You can’t cancel ALL the moments in pop culture that are definitely offensive today, but a movie from 2008 versus a movie released in 2023 has so many more rules to avoid the public backlash that could result in boycotts, apologies and broken endorsements. Some can be defended, others… definitely not.But as long as people learn and accept the changes to the rules in pop culture, we will be ok.

17: Artifical Intelligence – Scary or Not?
20 years ago, an average citizen thought Artificial Intelligence (AI) was something from a sci-fi movie that was a fictional portrayal of what the world will look like in our lifetimes. Today, workers from nearly all sectors that require valuable skill sets like writing, food service, and other industries are seeing their jobs succumb to some form of AI technology essentially cutting them out as the middleman. We aren’t there just yet, but it seems to be moving way faster than it started. Bella and Melissa talk about Artificial Intelligence and how it is going to change the world as we know it.
