On this episode our guest Ariana Ponce from LUCHA Tobacco (Latinos Unidos Contra el Habito y Adiccion al Tabaco) talks briefly about her time as an organizer for the Latino-advocacy group under the Health Education Council - mainly the issues faced by half of California's population and ways that we, as communities and concerned citizens, can organize to build better health outcomes for everyone. Further on, the entire crew sidelines the conversation to dunk on Big Tobacco, lament at the erosion of privacy through commercial social media, and relate to Johnny's experiences as a former smoker.
