Summary
A real embarrassment of riches over here on the Text Me Back side of the internet. First, we pay tribute to David Lynch, which bridges poetically into our next phase of entertainment: the Trump administration’s trailblazing focus on Making Hollywood Great Again with washed up losers who failed out of Hollywood! If art isn’t dead already, these freakin’ ding dongs will make sure it’s killed for good.
But you know what? We also have good news. Our segment Normal News brings us wonderful news about zombie pig brains! And in the famed and celebrated segment known as Christmas Addendum, Meagan shares a trinket we CHALLENGE you to guess (email us at deartextmeback@gmail.com with your guesses prior to hearing the answer–we’ll know if you cheat). Plus, some faithful reporting on news from pop culture magazines AKA slop culture.
