Key Segments & Discussions
1. Menopause and FDA Hormone Therapy Changes
[02:54–07:16]
- Amy shares a women's health update: The FDA is lifting the black box warning on hormone therapy for menopause. This is a big deal because it may reduce stigma and fear for women considering estrogen therapy.
- Amy: "You need to be informed and go to your doctor. But they're trying to eliminate any stigma attached to using these hormone therapies that can really give you a lot of relief because new research shows different." [03:15]

- Lunchbox: "Absolutely not. I don't even think about it." [06:33]
- The segment blends personal admissions (“My testosterone was actually great” – Bobby [07:41]) with jokes about hormone names (“Never heard of pedestrian?” – Lunchbox [07:33]).
2. Christina Perri’s Divorce & Awkward Celebrity Tangents

[09:13–11:32]

D) High-Paid Hand Model & the Price of Flawless Hands (Bobby)
