Episode 36 - BLM Part 1

For this special episode, Kelli and Ashley exchange stories that involve police brutality against unarmed black people. We share statistics that prove that racism is still a major issue in the American justice system. We also discuss what kind of manners cars have, we debate the relative attractiveness of people in old time-y portraits, and we once again discuss Ashley getting kidnapped, this time in a hot air balloon.
