S4E7 - Quick Rinse: Dragon’s Den, trauma cleaning, Anne Hathaway, and Ali Wong’s special

Elisa and Audra take a magnifying glass to four current pieces of media. In doing so, they dig into the nuances of cultural appropriation, learn about those who clean up after trauma, question our obsession with policing female celebrities, and celebrate rising divorce rates. This episode pairs best with a drink from your favorite Taiwanese boba store and eating as much MSG as you can find.

Clarifications

• Audra incorrectly classified the Dragon who agreed to invest in Bobba as a white woman. The Dragon is actually an Indian Canadian woman named Manjit Minhas, and she has since pulled her investment.
