Episode notes

I'm amazed that in a place like Chicago where there's a lot of crime in some specific areas. New Orleans is the same way. I had two of my good friends growing up that were black that both died, right? That got killed by other young black men. And it's fucking like crazy. Like, I don't know how to help stop that. They're giving your money to the Ukraine. They're talking about the working people or nothing.

Roseanne Barr is an Emmy-award winning comedian, writer and actress known for her iconic show “Roseanne” which aired for 10+ years.
