This week the advice columnists are moving aside — we providing the advice. We picked some letter from Dear Prudie, and figured out what we'd tell them to do. We shouldn't be advice columnists.

This week we're discussing the movie Promising Young Woman starring  Carey Mulligan, Bo Burnham, Alison Brie, Clancy Brown, Jennifer Coolidge, Laverne Cox, and Connie Britton I don't have a joke to make here so I'll just say please please please watch this movie before listening to us talk about it.

This week we're hosting a "PowerPoint Party" to convince you all of things that are 100% objective fact. From the best Disney villains to Javert's love of Valjean, to the crime spree of Harry Styles and Taylor Swift.  You don't need to look at the presentations, but we made them anyway.    Emily V.'s presentation: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1oz-orSarr_K1YiM0M4bpB3jjxhMQdZQNzo6ksrtqvWc/edit?usp=sharing Taylor's: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1_eYTCuVb3gEWTEvhbH4bF5zA6JUozEGD2FYqrUF9OE4/edit?usp=sharing Emily K.'s:  https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/11p0YRwWH3RCPq1WO4ZnFnunv7OIRv8oZcYmwPMM-9Kg/edit?usp=sharing
