01:08Okay, what can you not miss on TV or a streamer?

01:13Okay, I've watched way too

01:17Many episodes of Atlanta and the reason I say that is that there aren't many episodes

01:22Which means I've just continued to watch it and rewatch it

03:28Saying no, our yeses are extremely powerful

03:31But I know especially as a young woman and a young woman of color growing up in this world

03:41So my year of no is a must try
