Adult-ish

2019 has been the year of crazy and the nonsense has found its way into the realm of hygiene. Tons of people showed their nasty legs (and their NASTY asses too) when a recent Twitter poll on whether people scrub their legs while they showered incited debates on cleanliness. The debate spilled over to the overall question of caring for and cleaning one's body — and woo, it was stanky. In this latest episode of 'Adult-sh', host Afiya A. is joined by 'The Luv Chronicles' host Tatianna Luv to discuss the trending Twitter topic, their thoughts on shower etiquette, experiences with wacky body odor, and all other hygiene-related questions (ie: 'how often do you shave?' 'what's a hygiene deal-breaker for you?' etc).Listen as they chat about washing off the stank and keeping the funk far, far away.Host: Afiya A. http://twitter.com/adultishp0dcasthttp://twitter.com/lajoliepoeta http://instagram.com/alja0214 Special Guest Co-Host: Tatiana Luvhttp://instagram.com/theluvchronicles http://facebook.com/tatianaluv http://twi

Philando Castille). Vince talks about a product he's heard of, The 'Not-Reaching' Pouch, that he hopes will help de-escalate these deaths.Vincent and Afiya continue the conversation on how a crucial part of adulting is learning how to survive — especially circumstances that may threaten a person's life and ability to live another day to figure out what it means to be an adult.Host: Afiya Ahttp://twitter.com/adultishp0dcasthttp://twitter.com/lajoliepoeta http://instagram.com/alja0214Co-Host: Vincent Bernard https://www.facebook.com/vincent.bernard.543http://instag
