Hello, hello, this is fake the nation. It's a podcast where you get your culture, a news fix,

and where we answer all of life's great questions. And I got to be honest, recently, a lot of

those questions have been, why does Gen Z do things that millennials don't understand?

Well, this week, why anyone would consider an apprentice reboot is a question that we'll look at.

We'll also look at the gutting of the voting rights act and other unsavory pastimes in the political realm.

And finally, did the school phone bans work?

Ooh, there's new data.

I love new data.

Today, oh my God, I'm so excited by the panel today.

Both of them are first timers, and I don't even get it because one of them is a friend I've had for a million years.

But somehow this is the first time she's done this podcast.

She's a stand-up, a comedian, I mean, a stand-up comedian, but also if you want to

separate those two, she's also two separate things. She is a writer. She is an author. I read

one of her books in preparation for my own writing of a book, and it's so fucking hilarious.

It's a Y-A book that I loved.

She also has a monthly show in New York City called Golden Spiral that you could check out

on the East Village.

I mean, she's also just like a wonderful musician.

She's just a multi-talented thread.

It is the wonderful Mindy Raff. Hey, Mindy.

Hello. Thank you for that beautiful introduction. All of it. So deserve it. I didn't even get

into your fashion sets, which is on point. So, you know, I could go on for another 20 minutes.
