Hi, I'm Rachel Hampton.

And I'm Madison Malone Kircher. You're listening to I see why am I.

In case you missed it, Slate's podcast about internet culture. And we are back, back in the northeast, back from South by Southwest. Madison, thank God, did not buy a 10-gallon hat, which means I didn't have to quit the show. I mean, you weren't with me the entire time we were in Texas. You can't confirm that I didn't buy a 10-gallon hat. If I don't see it, it's not real. So as Rachel said, we are squarely back in the Northeast,

but our show, however, remains in Texas. Because what you're going to hear today is the second

half of our first ever live show, which we taped earlier this week in Austin, Texas.

It's March Madness, y'all.

From the two sportiest people you know,

we're doing a bracket of the most important internet ephemera

that we could collect from y'all.

You sent some great submissions in.

And there are some surprises here,

Madison. I enjoyed playing this game immensely, and I'm so glad we get to share it with all of you now.

So without any further ado, we're back with some March Madness, which makes a lot of sense,

because if you listen to this show, you know that Rachel and I love sports. So many sports.

We love them. Sports ball. Sports. I can't even come up with another noun.

Yes. Sports. Yes. So we're going to play a little bit of a game here on ICIMIMI today to decide on the

most iconic piece of internet ephemera. I would say iconic is the right word. The internet thing that will end up in the history books. Yes, the textbook that you and I have just decided that we will be publishing. Yes, we will make a lot of money off of that. Yeah, yeah. Don't steal this idea. So here's how it goes. We have a bracket with four categories. There are two competitors in each.

Winners will be chosen by our live audience.

Hello.

And at the end, we will have one Supreme Victor.

Yes.

The four categories are horny on Maine,
