Hi I'm Rachel Hampton and you're listening to ICI am I in case you missed it place podcast about internet culture and today we have a super special guest in the studio, Rebecca Jennings,

a senior correspondent at Vox covering the internet fame and money,

aka one of my favorite writers in the internet culture space.

If you care at all about the internet and you're not reading Rebecca, I don't know what you're doing.

Rebecca, welcome back to the show.

Thank you so much for having me again.

I'm so excited you're here like you're pretty consistently one of the

people whose coverage I use to kind of figure out how I feel about things like I find you to be a very

clarifying writer. Last time you were on the show you very clarifying writer.

Last time you were on the show,

you were clarifying the short-lived

but kind of heartwarming gentlemenians trend.

Yeah. And you articulated this fascinating Marxist argument

against the minions, which is exactly the sort of thing I look for,

and my internet coverage.

Has your relationship with the

Minions continued? Are you committed to freeing them from their

bourgeois masters? Well you know it's funny I didn't cross the picket line by

going to see the Min. I have not seen any

minions films other than the first despicable me. So I'm standing in

solidarity with the yellow workers. That's beautiful.

That's absolutely gorgeous.
