It's Late Night in this episode and that is clear very quickly!

According to one listener rant ‘Crop tops for men need a comeback!’ From the Isley Brothers rocking them in the 70s to the cool vibes of the 90s, it's time to free the male belly button from fabric shackles and let the hoochie daddies roam free in style. We support the movement but Dana just asks to keep that belly button clean!  And as for Oreos, while they may be addictive and delicious, Jessica is quick to tell us why they are not so great for you. So, let's embrace fashion equality and enjoy treats in moderation for a well-rounded life!

Dana Rave - SAGE 

https://www.sageusa.org/

Why you should donate rn: One segment of the LGBTQ+ community that often goes overlooked is LGBTQ+ older people, who may not be the people dancing on the floats in Pride parades. SAGE, based in New York, wants to change that. As the largest and oldest organization dedicated to improving the lives of elderly LGBTQ+ people and their caregivers, SAGE helps advocate for the community on federal, state, and local levels. Donations help members work with legislators to inform them on LGBTQ+ aging issues in the hopes of changing policies and create safe spaces for LGBTQ+ older people to come together and feel welcome.

If you don’t have a ton of extra $$$ to throw around, SAGE also asks for your support in the form of calling up your senators and telling them that you stand by the Equality Act.
