This week, Dave and Alana are joined by the fabulous writer Allie Rowbottom, author of Jell-O Girls: A Family History and the upcoming novel Aesthetica. We dig into the thorny topic of self-improvement, both physical and emotional. Why does LA love plastic surgery, injectables, and other body modifications? Marvel at Dave trying to understand what a "unit" of Botox means!
