Summary

Being a woman means accepting responsibility for your actions and owning up to your shit, right? On this episode of Recovering from Reality, Alexis sits down with NYC based satire writer Millie Moore to talk about the mastermind that is Kris Jenner, the conspiracy that is Kim K's sex tape, and the chaos that is Jordan Woods's life. Trumps presidency is briefly discussed while Alexis and Millie muse about the responsibility for comedians like John Oliver and Bill Maher to "report" vs "entertain". Millie talks candidly about her experience with psychosis and how—at fourteen—her doctor prescribed her the same amount of Adderall as Lebron James—which probably had a lot to do with the voices she started hearing. We're reminded that there's an almost universal synchronicity connecting the need many people feel to detach. P.S. here's the article in reference #andsoitis

0:00.0	Hey, it's Alexis Haynes and this is my podcast recovering from reality.
0:15.5	Hi, I am so excited to have Millie Moore on my podcast today. She is a pop culture
0:36.1	enthusiast who writes for publications such as Betches and I'm having her on
0:42.1	today because I actually came across one of her articles for Betches titled Trashy Reality
0:49.5	Shows from the early 2000s that you totally forgot about and in it was pretty wild. We were actually
0:57.5	testing Iword the photo at the very top. So clearly she's a fan and I just loved her writing and
1:07.8	I thought it was so cute the way that she wrote this article out. You know, it wasn't just about
1:13.2	pretty wild. It was about awesome shows like Sunset Dan. You guys remember Sunset Dan? Sunset Dan
1:19.8	was amazing and then what was my other favorite rock of love? Oh, yeah, I loved that. I like it
1:25.8	more than flavor of love but the comment section got so mad at me that I didn't include that one
1:30.3	but that one's just too depressing to talk about. No, I totally agree and it wasn't just the fact
1:37.1	that you covered us like every other publication which is just basically poking fun at like the
1:43.3	ridiculousness of pretty wild. Well, I still poked fun at you. You absolutely did
1:50.0	in there and everybody should because it was really quite something that show. But you
1:57.8	gave an awesome update that I really appreciated because not many people do that. Yeah.
2:04.4	And you did it in a funny way. So she says, Tessa sober, engage in has a baby. She sells homemade honey
2:12.8	because, well, I don't know why but it's better having been practicing playboy shoots with her mom.
2:18.8	Gabby recently got married to Noward Unwether or not the mom got help for that tick that I was
2:23.7	made her say and so it is. Did she still do that? She doesn't. So what's her new tech? She doesn't really,
2:31.3	she doesn't really have one now which is kind of a bummer although we're bringing back the
2:36.5	and so it is because I figure you might as well. You know, if you owned it back then I should own it now.
2:44.0	But I'm so happy to have you on to talk about pop culture and media and the way that media portrays women
