Doing Weed (w/Brian Jordan Alvarez): In the HIGHEST rated episode to date, Allison and Gaby “puff, puff, pass” along their knowledge by demonstrating how to gently turn down a friend during this week’s International Question. Then, the duo get swept off their feet by the talented and effervescent Brian Jordan Alvarez (The Gay and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo; Will & Grace). And, if you haven’t guessed it already, this week’s Topix is all about weed. More than your average stoner talk, Gaby and Allison dissect what it means to normalize the stigma associated with marijuana and its role in the prison industrial complex. No one was high during the making of this episode. (We think.) by Just Between Us
