2 Dopes Podcast2 Dope Girls: Lang ParkerAnother 3 Dope Girls Episode! Yes, that's right we said 3. Lang Parker joins Addie Martin and Julia WD Harrison on the rooftop...let's just call it their studio. The parking garage folks are giving guests directions to the 4th floor and know us by now so until further notice, 2 Dope Girls HQ it is. When LA women get together, somehow the conversation always leads to dating and sex...in LA "dating" is basically code word for "we hook up every now and then but never in public". Check Lang Parker out when she's on the road, www.LangComedy.com! COMMENT...
