On this episode, we're on an emotional rollercoaster with Janicza Bravo's 2021 crime drama/comedy, Zola, based on the viral Twitter thread by Detroit waitress A'Ziah "Zola" King in October 2015. It stars Taylour Paige as the titular protagonist, and Riley Keough as the shady lady who roped Zola into a nightmarish weekend in Florida. It's possibly our shortest Hot Probs segment to date, as Bravo knocks this one out of the park.
This discussion inspires a new t-shirt (it's always a good idea to MIND THE VIBES) and several P.S.A.'s.
You won't wanna miss this Lunchtime Poll, as we tell stories of times we got in over our heads with some sketchy people.
PS: Forget that Rolling Stone article. Allison P. Davis has the real scoop at Vulture.
