Our help comes with some strong language attached. So, like, hide your kids hide your wife, unless she into that, because we about to say some things.

Welcome to yet another episode of The Antidote. Amy Yay. Oh, my God. Grace, did you see these photos of Rihanna being made pregnant and mad cute? Grace Why is she- Rihanna, I'm going to talk directly to you. Could you give the rest of us women on planet Earth a f---ing break? Can you just get off our necks? I mean, you're 12 months pregnant looking like a full meal, like that red dress. Amy Beyond the snack status. Grace That's- If I wore that red dress, I would look like a grandma. She looks like- Amy I'd look like a bottle of ketchup. I'd look like a bottle of ketchup. Looking for a burger. Grace Anyway, moving on, we can't have the antidote if we don't have something to get an antidote from. Amy Starting now, up top with our bummer news of the week. So first up, Georgia Governor Kemp signed a bill that allows people to carry guns without license. Did you hear about this? Grace I unfortunately did hear, yeah. Amy Literally mere hours after the subway shooting in New York, Kemp said owning a gun without a permit is, quote, "a constitutional authority that people have. And they certainly shouldn't have a piece of paper from the government to be able to legally carry a weapon," end quote, which I think is lunacy. Okay. Grace Well, how is it legal without a permit? That's my question. Amy Well, it's legal in Georgia, anyone can just pop off now. Grace I don't want to go to there anymore. Amy No. Grace I'm just like, nah, I mean, I. I get it. I mean, I'm from Michigan. A lot of people have guns in Michigan. You know,. Amy Texas. I'm from Texas. Grace I personally. Yeah. You know, I'm personally against gun ownership, but at the very least, the bare minimum, there should be at least background checks, making sure the person is not a domestic abuser. Like making sure that the person doesn't have a criminal record. Like those are what the permits are good for truckin. But I guess he's like, not even that.
