Comedian Shapel Lacey talks with Joe about all that has happened following the murder of George Floyd including the need for all of us to educate ourselves, the struggles Shapel as since overcome thanks to being told he "wasn't black" because of his love of punk rock and skateboarding culture and how white people shouldn't be afraid to ask "dumb questions" because it starts an important and much needed dialogue.

Comedian Lil Hart didn't get a DUI, she got a DU FLY. She talks with Joe about getting arrested on a flight pre-takeoff for being drunk and the aftermath that followed.
