This episode was going to be called "The One with the Lawyers" but since that could describe half of our episodes, we decided against it. Two of our favorite local folks, who happen to be lawyers, join Alison and Jacob for a conversation that spent a lot of time on the "#metoo" movement and how victims are treated in those circumstances this talk leads into a short discussion on dating in this environment. We also engage our guests, Sarah Perez and Enrique Acuña, in talk about local food and politics.
