EP. 376 — 376: Jussie Smollett, Roosh V Hates Butts, Gun Control Is A Women’s Issue

Radical business plan changes! Fights with strangers! All that and more on a brand new Throwing Shade! Bryan talks us through the racist and homophobic violent assault on actor Jussie Smollett, the declaration by misogynist blogger Roosh V that liking butts is unacceptable, and the first openly LGBTQ+ duo at the US Figure Skating Championship. Plus, Erin discusses the latest mass shootings, what the perpetrators have in common, and why it all points to gun control being absolutely a women’s issue.
