EP 470: Monica Lewinsky’d All On My Gown

Mandii B and Weezy return for a raw solo episode of Decisions, Decisions where they unpack the complicated conversation around Monica Lewinsky and debate accountability versus innocence, including whether she was a victim or acting with agency, and how public narratives have shaped the way women are judged.
