Whatever We Want with Jay & Kay
Easy Like Sunday Morning
Show Notes

So many crazes, changes, and showbiz criticisms to discuss! Jay and Kay are back to go over hot topics in the arts industry, the practices that have to go away, ridiculous happenings in the government, and mental health. We all have our own ways to feel okay and for some, maybe it’s watching teenage rom coms... even in our 40s.  On a more serious note, the pair highlight the importance of reaching out to people when the blues or depression hit us and why we have to take it easy on ourselves sometimes.  A talk about everything under the sun is the perfect way to spice up this easy Sunday morning.

“Create a system so people will know what your boundaries are, what you're comfortable with so they know how best to help you. Because a lot of times, the issue is people don't know what to do.” - Khalilah Elliott
