Hi, friends. I'm coming to you today with a bite-sized bish because Amanda and West released a joint

statement confirming, weirdly, that they are together. So I wanted to jump on and do a quick

bite-sized bish. Today, you know, there's a new M&M hour, which I hope people are enjoying,

but this news came about today, and I just have a lot of thoughts and I'm trying to process it. I know everyone is too. So I thought, let me do a bite-sized bish, talk a little bit about what's going on and just kind of validate everyone's collective outrage because we all should be pissed. This is ridiculous.

woof. First of all, that's a lot of words to not say a lot of

things. Second of all, I feel like not acknowledging Sierra or Kyle at all is insane. Third,

as humans, we are all imperfect, right? I talk about this on the podcast all the time. This is why it's not good to idealize

and devalue these people we watch on TV because I'm going to use an example. So West,
