This is definitely legal advice (but not from Iz). Taco Bell is getting sued, MrBeast is suing (and then also being sued), and we're mostly just here to talk about why Amanda has never had a Crunchwrap Supreme. Also: Love is Blind, Tiktok designer feuds, and the Jonas Brothers' second act as venture capitalists.
Isabel goes to see Barbenheimer and declares Barbie a science fiction/fantasy movie. Amanda gets a podcast dungeon. Your intrepid hosts also wade into tree law and "girl dinner." I must mention again that I have a podcast dungeon now. At some points, a baby is crying in Isabel's hallway, which you can hear, because she does not have a podcast dungeon. We mention in the episode when we get into Barbenheimer spoilers -- that continues until 39:45. We also talk about the "girl dinner" trend, which includes mentions of disordered eating behaviors and how they inadvertently spread on social media. If you don't wanna hear that, just end the episode around 51:00! That discussion goes through the end of the episode so you won't be missing anything else :) Find Us Online Buy our merch!

Iz has taken over, and Amanda is so powerful that she had to be replaced by six different guests. We're talking about: sharing perpetual stew with 50 strangers in a park in Brooklyn (yes, this is internet related); reading 365 books in 365 days (bad idea); and new forms of divination (unfortunately, feet related). Thanks to Tracey, Max, David, Emily, and Allison for experiencing podcasting!
It's our longawaited 69th episode, dedicated to the history of the 69 meme. But also we're on an island with our 30 closest friends, many of whom are in the room (cabin) with us today! After we enlighten you with our deep dive into 69 history, our live cabin audience will dazzle you with stories from the island, including egg drop drama, wizard LARPing, and the spooky thing Isabel saw.

In this episode: Amanda tries to break Snapchat's AI by showing it... objects... that increasingly look more like... an eggplant emoji. Iz explains the connection between omegaverse, Ron DeSantis, and AI writing. Honestly, this is appropriate as all hell for the leadup to episode 69, our long-awaited magnum opus.
We're waiting for our own Bigolas Dickolas moment. Unfortunately, this isn't the episode for that, because Amanda talks about which Jeopardy Master showed feet, and Isabel ranks all her dnd characters by rizz. Yes, we have lost the plot. And the time war. But hey, at least we follow more than 30 women on twitter (now you have to listen for context, here's how Wow if True can still win.)

In this episode, we're skeeting all over the place, because sometimes, everything happens everywhere all at once. By that we mean: dril vs. Elon ultimate showdown (of ultimate destiny), bluesky (aka twitter 2) vs twitter (aka twitter 1), and Amanda vs. the mortifying ordeal of meeting Hank Green.

In this episode: Both hosts are in the same place! And that place is...Amanda's living room floor. Lots of reviews this week: Barbie trailer, Mario movie, Philly's new-ish conveyer belt sushi joint, and Amanda's apartment decor. Not everything has to be a fucking ordeal. Sometimes things can just be movies.
MSCHF has anime girl tax preparation software, Brandon Sanderson has a wizard supervillain lair, and Amanda has unsubstantiated hot takes about sports. Really. C’mon sport, let’s watch the big game. And by the big game, I mean, let’s get our taxes done by dating an anime girl.

We recommend making yourself a cheese toast before listening so that you don't get hungry for cheese toast, because we're talking about a 60-year-old retiree's cheese toast Facebook group. Also: SVB and the internet's reaction to SVB melting, FTX influencer lawsuits, and why English majors will inherit the earth. And no, we don't talk about the SAT for 30 minutes. No, seriously, our editor cut that bit. You're welcome.
