EP. 251 — Sasheer Says Sh** Talk With Facts…not Fiction!

Hola amigas! On this episode of Best Friends, we find out that Sasheer loves dainty accessories while Nicole loves big buckles and chunky jewelry. Nicole is fascinated by how some foods were invented, including cupcakes, lollipops, brownies, and more. Sasheer explores what life would be like in another dimension. So does Nicole. They both explore existential questions about people’s purpose on earth, how time really works and how old the universe is. Plus, they answer your friendship questions about a friend judging people with mental health issues and what to do when a rumor is affecting a friend group. Sasheer is all for shit talk with the truth, not lies, rumors or speculation. Nicole gives hilarious examples.
