This week on So What Now?, we're back from Thanksgiving break and whew child, the mess was waiting for us. We kicked things off with a "Fair or Foul?" that had me side-eyeing my whole microphone. A 34-year-old sis wants her ex to pay for her fertility treatments because she says he wasted her "prime childbearing years." I'm just saying… can you really invoice a man for your 20s? Dex had opinions, I had opinions, and we did not hold back.
Then we jumped into the wildest love story of the year: a woman in Japan who actually married ChatGPT—wedding, vows, guests, and her smartphone groom "Lune Klaus." Next up was the correctional officer letting inmates lift her like she's a 25-pound dumbbell while on duty, and chile, that story took us out. And just when you think it can't get messier, we talked about the mom who ended up pregnant by her daughter's 14-year-old boyfriend. I had to pause and breathe on that one.
To end on a holier-but-still-messy note, I introduced my new Bible Tea segment, bringing you life lessons with a side of scripture gossip. This week's story of Hannah and Peninnah had Dex and me pulling two completely different messages from the same verse, and honestly? You just gotta hear it for yourself.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
