Ladies Who Question

Jane Goodall...even her name evokes her exquisite human spirit, and, yes, her goodness. The #ladieswhoquestion pay tribute to a woman we so admire. RIP, Ms.Jane Goodall. On the seamy side of pop news, Holli takes one for the team and watches The Golden Bachelor and gets us up to date on doings at the manse. It's predictably and simultaneously gross and fascinating. And, Taylor Swift...we love her, respect her, and can't wait to hear her new album. We are, basically, a Baby Boomer Fan Club and proud of it. Tune in, and enjoy! Thanks for listening.

On another note...tune into Dancing with the Stars if you like, but most of them are not the extra shiny types. It may still be fun, who knows? And, admit it, you are deeply in love with your pet.

Just Entertainment today! The Ladies dish big time about the gross excess and conspicuous consumption of the Bezos-Sanchez wedding. Natch, the Kardahsians were all there, even though they weren't all initially invited. Momager said she wouldn't go unless the whole fam got invites...oh no she didn't...Oh, YES SHE DID! The nerve! The newst Golden Bachelor might be a real douche. His lady picks have a severe age limit. It should be a verrrry interesting season. The Idaho murderer gets ripped apart and so does Diddy. It's all in a day's gabfest for the #LadiesWhoQuestion. Please do tune in right now! And, thanks for your time.

A guy wants to marry the AI Chatbot he created. Not kidding. The Ladies Who Question wonder what his human partner thinks about that. The latest invention from the Japanese is one we, and Mother Earth, will greatly benefit from daily. Big money does not class make. Jeff Bezos knows no bounds. His wedding is giving Lisë and Holli major ick for being over the top and gaudy. Seriously, should anybody have that much money? The Karen Read trial is over, at least the criminal trial. We'll be following the civic trial once that gets underway. For now, it's party, party party! Thanks for tuning in! Please follow, like, and subscribe, and tell a friend. We would be ever so grateful :).

Ladies Who Question talk about AI a lot, for a very good reason! We want you to be prepared for the tidal wave of change. Hollywood has sued the Generative AI company, Midjourney, for image theft. Disney and Universal have teamed up to take the company to court. So yeah, it's gotten serious..Also on tap, AI hallucinations and what you need to know to double-check ALL of the information on the Internet. Much of the info is misinformation, or possibly disinformation, if you will. Lise and Holli also grieve the death of musical genius and Beach Boy founder, Brian Wilson. His music was magical and meant so much to so many. RIP, dear man. Thanks for listening, we love our listeners!

The #theladieswhoquestion are hometown proud. The venerable #steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago just won TWO Tony Awards! There's yet another wrinkle in the Blake V. Baldoni lawsuit. Seriously, when will this go away?! Sly Stone, consummate funk/pop star and entertainer, passed away at 82. Thanks for the musical memories; Everybody IS a Star, Sly, and you were ours. Prisoners growing their own food, learning about nutrition, gaining a usable skill, and being useful; how great is that? Some inmates in England are doing just that. It's time to bring it to our shores, if it isn't already a prison program here.The #theladieswhoquestion are hometown proud. The venerable #steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago just won TWO Tony Awards!

AI is here and it's not going away. In fact, AI is coming for jobs, lots and lots of jobs. It may replace your job or your neighbor's job. It's time to prepare for your next chapter, just in case you get displaced. AI is also coming for your sex life. Tune in now to find out about that! The news is both horrifying and funny.

Surprises, sweet and sour, at the American Music Awards got the #ladieswhoquestion talking. The Karen Read Trial gets more and more mysterious. This is one whodunnit that may never get solved. What is crypto, who "mines" it, and what does that mean? Lise is befuddled by the entire concept, giving her a big old headache. And, Da'Pope gets an eponymous brewski at a Chicago brewpub. Belly up to the bar at Chicago's Bruning Bush Brewery and procure a pint of holy ale! Thanks for listening! We love you guys!

Chicago's Dust Storm blew through the city like a swarm of locusts last week, and we are still cleaning up. It was simply bizarre. Check Holli's video on our Insta. Lise got her second Shingrix vaccine and says the pain will be worth it. That Karen Read Trial just got interesting, and we have some deets. Can you imagine being 10 years old and in college? No kidding, A little girl on the West Coast will soon be on the Stanford campus! A heartwarming story of a 90-year-old English woman who takes care of all the animals in her 12-acre sanctuary.
