I’m surprised how many of y’all didn’t know Louie and James have been friends for yearsss😭 . They literally had a collab together called hermanas apparel. I loved this episode! You can see how much James has grown as a person and has apologized again and again , and even then his past doesn’t define Louie’s or yoatzi’s character! So watch or don’t watch 🤷‍♀️

[@faby7288]

This episode was so good. James is well educated and very informative in everything he does especially with his business I love itt

[@mona8321]

It's funny how people criticize bringing James Charles into the spotlight but still enjoy the work of celebrities like Justin Bieber, who has faced allegations, or Chris Brown, despite his legal troubles. This shows a greater hypocrisy, as many who are quick to judge Charles also support companies that are linked to serious issues like genocide. I’m sure a lot of yall still drink Starbucks and eat McDonald’s. It highlights a double standard in how we hold people accountable in pop culture where ppl tend to ignore problems based on who they like. (also don’t forget some yall voted for trump) Just don’t watch.
