011: On Moving Forward with The Bachelor, Gun Control, Racist Real Estate, & #TeamErica
On this episode of Try Saying That Out Loud, Jamie & Lo have one final debrief of Matt James\u2019 season of The Bachelor and discuss how not excited they are for Katie\u2019s season of The Bachelorette.
Then, the tone shifts as the ladies talk about gun control in the wake of the supermarket shooting in Boulder, as well as the shooting in Georgia that targeted Asian-American women (0:20). In the span of a week, 18 American lives were lost. They try to make sense of arguments against banning assault-style weapons but literally just\u2026 cannot.
This episode\u2019s Try Saying That moment is brought to you by, for the first time, A REAL LIFE LISTENER, but hits close to home for both Jamie & Lo (0:35). Real estate, education and, you guessed it: racism. They discuss ways to combat living in disproportionately white neighborhoods and the importance of diversity in raising the next generation.
Lo then talks about nutrition and weight loss (0:53) and Jamie dives into Enneagram 6 (1:13). The ladies finish with what they are reading (1:28) & watching (1:37; this is now a Temptation Island podcast for those of you who care) and announce their next #podpick, Red Pill\xa0by Hari Kunzru.
