"French Manicures" w/ Jess Salomon & Eman El-Husseini

Bonjour, femmes glamours! This week on a very educational StraightioLab, Jess Salomon and Eman El-Husseini explain how they can be an interracial, interfaith, and inter-vaccine (Pfizer-Moderna) queer couple and STILL get canceled in today's fast-paced media climate! After that, they dive into what makes a manicure French (suburban ennui), and what makes bacon Canadian (racism). Plus: Was the Virgin Mary a fashionista? Which corporate entity have we decided to put on blast? And finally: Does going to a hotel count as "queer culture"? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
