It was the slap heard 'round the world and it seems impossible to escape the ongoing discussions about it. Who was right? Who was wrong? What happens now?
Jay and Kay give their insights and reflect on what should have been remembered as a groundbreaking and historical night that has instead turned into fodder for gossip rags and memes on social media.
The duo explore how context triggers a deeper understanding and compassion towards everyone involved while emphasizing the need to keep our collective humanity in the spotlight despite all these crazy events. They also discuss masculinity, the concept of toxic sensitivity, and how at the end of the day, one must lead with kindness.
