Dara + Yasmine kick off a few weeks in LA this week by talking all things gender wage gap with Yo, Is This Racist? co-host and star of Brockmire, Tawny Newsome. We’ve got a starfish callback and a check-in on Dara’s quest to get a good night's rest, plus some tasty dishing about Meryl Streep, Laura Dern and all the rest of the Big Little Lies gang.

Things get a little emotional as we dig into how disparities in pay between women and men hurt women of color the most, but we bounce back with some great ideas on how to make sure you’re getting paid what you’re worth. Spoiler alert: it involves making like the US women’s national soccer team and talking about compensation with your colleagues.
