Carmen and Andrea are back for a brand-new episode of Culture and Consequence! The duo unpacks the recent political fallout, starting with deep frustration over missed Democratic votes on the Hill and what it signals for party discipline. They also break down the frustrating voting statistics among white demographics, the elevation of Stephen Miller as chief of staff, and the ongoing political drama in Washington. Plus, the conversation takes a lighter turn into holiday movie rants, cozy rom-com recommendations, and staying grounded in joy. We're just two friends chatting on the phone who started recording our weekly conversations – pull up a chair and join us! Tune in, subscribe, and remember – at the end of the day, it's all about the joy! Thank you for stopping by.  Please visit our website: All About The Joy and add, like and share.  You can now watch the livestream version of the show on YouTube at @CarmenLezeth You can also support AATJ by shopping at our STORE – Or by and buying us a coffee. We'd appreciate that greatly.  Also, if you want to find us anywhere on social media, please check out the link in bio page.
