And I'm really excited to hear, you know, our differences in opinions. So me and mom watched the documentary on HBO and it was a hot mess, and I don't think it should have been made in the first place. Low key? Well, not [00:02:00] necessarily. It shouldn't have been made, but I just feel like if they didn't have the footage or the.Naiya: Content behind it. It just shouldn't have been made. They weren't trying to make it into this whole thing where they were all like, Al Alabama is racist and da da da da da. But then it was about homegirl and her alopecia. Like, Dana: I'm really confused. Well wait before we even get into that, because I feel like we've skipped just a whole lot of information.Dana: Okay. Some of our guests may not know about University of Alabama. I mean, I don't know how, but there are some people that really don't know. So before we get into it, I just wanna give you guys a little background. So University of Alabama, which is located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, was founded in 1831. The school is known for its athletics and its Greek life.Dana: Also, according to talk business and politics, they made 214 million from July, 2021 [00:03:00] to June 30th, 2022.
