  • Perplexing

    I have to ask if I Have to Ask is aware of the existence of a pool of potential guests who AREN’T successful white men. Dry as dust and just as appetizing - I tasted, considered, washed it down with a bit of good wine and left the rest on my plate, unfinished and bound for the podcast dustbin.
