Welcome to the Double X Gap Fest for Thursday, February 20th, the Sex and Ambition Edition.

I'm Hannah Rosen, editor at Double X. I am joined in New York by June Thomas, a writer and editor for Slate.

Hi, June.

Hey, Hannah.

And Maureen Malone of New York Magazine. Hi, Noreen.

Hey, Hannah. Before we get started, I want to announce that our sixth and I show in D.C. our live Gap Fest was postponed because of snow.

D.C. was shut down for many days. So the show is now on Tuesday, February 25th, which is next week. So for all of our DC friends,

you can still get tickets at slate.com slash double XDC. And it's going to be a fabulous,

fabulous, super, super fun show. Lots of discussions about love and sex and marriage. There'll be some

music. And it will be awesome. So you really should come. Also, you don't have to miss the Olympics

since it's next week. Oh, yeah. Good point. Good point. I've been like an Olympics addict. Like, I'm just like, I'm so drawn into like the modeling figure skating and then the crazy jumping. Like every year you think, like the Olympics is just like a freak. Like, it's all these things you don't know anything about. It seems so so random like, you know, people on skis jumping down what looks like stairway banisters. It's like, why is this a sport? Why is sledding a sport? You know, it all seems confusing. But then there it is on the TV. And I'm just drooling with fascination every single night. You and me both, sister. No, me. Is that true? not me absolutely this would me just find it boring noreen but is that because you don't have a

television it's because It's totally because I don't have a television. I would otherwise be watching. I watch a little bit at the gym with the sound off. That's the most I can. I've watched some gifts online, some reaction gifts. That's about all I want. Reaction gifts? This is like such a, oh, the youth.

Yeah. There's... You've been checking out the Russians resting bitch friends.

The website that I... The website of New York Magazine does a recap via gifts. I'm not ashamed of my

millennialism. You know, it's a good recap.

So they just do like the flips, the best flips.

Yeah, just like the moments, the moments.

Right.

It's all you want.

Yeah, I guess.

Not me.
