WHAT WERE OUR LIVES BEFORE THE HILARIA BALDWIN DRAMA? Seriously guys. Shall we call it cucumbergate? Whatever you want to call it, it took over my damn life and is one of the wildest celebrity scandals EVER.

To discuss the entertainment value but also reasons why it is offensive to both the Latino and Hispanic communities, E!'s Lilliana Vasquez joins me and does a fantastic job of making it very clear why yes we can LOL at the utter ridiculousness of it all, but we also need to understand why what HB2 did it is abhorrently wrong.   Ritual: Get 10% off during your first 3 months at ritual.com/notskinny Usual Wines: Get $8 off your first order at usualwines.com with code NOTSKINNY Woo More Play: For 20% off your order of the Woo Vybez, go to woomoreplay.com with code NOTSKINNY   Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https:/
