Summary






This week, David has to fly off to Sundance, so we’re postponing whatever our 500th episode (numerically) would be to talk about pop culture in America in 2025. First, somehow Trump returned, so our hosts talk about what they have been ingesting media wise to cope with, ignore, or confront that reality. Then, Katey Rich has a quiz for Patches and Da7e to collaborate on about this year’s upcoming films. Finally, Katey’s husband asks why she doesn’t make new guy friends and Da7e and Patches try to help answer.
