#221 - Comedian Dave Chapelle’s Netflix special ignites “transphobia” controversy & Hooters staff complain that their new uniforms are inappropriate

Elsewhere, the Hooters franchise unveiled a new uniform for their servers that ruffled feathers, so much so that they had to backtrack on the implementation of these uniforms. Find us here!Our YLB Subreddit for detailed show notes and mindblowing discussions!YLB's own TikTok featuring 2 boom-llenials attempting to connect with Gen Z uwuOur YLB YouTube channel to watch videos of all our guest interviews! Comedian Dave Chapelle’s Netflix special ignites “transphobia” controversyNetflix Trans Employees Plan Walkout Over Dave Chappelle Special | VarietyA timeline of Netflix's Dave Chapelle special fallout | sfgateTed Sarandos' Defense of Dave Chappelle Special Misses the Point | VarietyDave Chappelle’s ‘The Closer’ Is Not a Simple Victim-Bully Story | The AtlanticActually, Netflix, Content Like Dave Chappelle’s Transphobic Comedy Special Does “Directly Translate To Real World Harm” | YahooFamily of trans woman who Dave Chapelle in Netflix special said was hounded to death for defending his jokes in 2019 slam woke mob trying to cancel him: Sister says you can't 'demand everyone see it your way' | Daily MailNetflix's support of Dave Chappelle is setting a dangerous precedent.
