Joey presents a couple of jokes he saw on instagram, one was a story by a comedian about a family member with down syndrome, the other was a black male mocking the voices and facial expressions of white college, female students. Can comedy go too far?  Is every topic fair game to laugh at?  Is there a "right way" to make fun of anything?  Recently on a text feed amongst the podcast host team, Amy thought Hayne made a "fat joke" about her and even though he didn't, Amy shares why she wouldn't have objected.  Get The B-Sides Feed*) * *Facebook Discussion Group* here.)E-mail the *PWNA team here.)******Theme Song, other Music **by Stoy Prioleau (aka: Riggy Roc): Apple Music)Other music: Mechanical River), Derek Minor. ****
