Description

The DLHS crew tackled the internet backlash after Tracee Ellis Ross’s afro was labeled a “cloud bob” in a Vogue hair feature—sparking accusations of cultural erasure so loud the magazine quietly removed the term after widespread pushback. That debate rolled straight into the Question of the Day: would you rather see your teen ride alone in a self‑driving car or with an Uber driver? With companies like Waymo rolling out teen accounts and safety data suggesting autonomous vehicles may be involved in fewer serious crashes than human drivers, listeners weighed convenience and tech safeguards against very real fears about putting kids in AI-run cars.  

The show also zoomed out to the world stage, where peace talks between the U.S. and Iran remain stuck in limbo despite an extended ceasefire, largely due to ongoing naval blockades and leadership divisions inside Tehran that have stalled meaningful negotiations. To lighten things up, Jasmine Sanders closed out with her Top 5, breaking down the surprisingly practical ways vodka can be used around the house—from eliminating lingering odors to keeping flowers fresh longer, thanks to its antibacterial properties and ability to slow plant decay—proof that even your liquor cabinet might be working overtime.
