Hosts Libby and Riley discuss hot button topics on their minds lately, including cancel culture, respectful conversations in today's society (or lack thereof), the harmful rhetoric of Gen Zers being "lazy" or "not working hard enough," and the cyclical churning of trends. Plus, some side tangents about differing personality traits in the workplace and, of course, their Roman Empires. They invite you to sit down, grab a snack, and rant with them.
