As Ben and Rummana pick up a conversation they've been having for--get ready--six years! Yes, six years of Jussie talk. The pretext this time around? A new Netflix documentary that promises to reveal the truth about Smollettgate. Well, it doesn't do that. Rummana says it's cheesy. And Ben says that's the point, this whole saga is cheesy. The big question is why Chicago got so enthralled and/or enraged by Smollettgate. And Rummana says...oh, just listen.
