Summary
This episode is pure pop culture whiplash in the best possible way. We’re unpacking chaotic D-list behavior from Pete Davidson & Spencer Pratt, diving into the end of Stephen Colbert’s late night era, and discussing everything from celebrity baby announcements to Netflix documentaries that fully destabilized my nervous system. We get into the alleged Pete Davidson deadbeat dad discourse, Spencer Pratt’s hilariously unserious mayoral campaign/documentary rollout, and why Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce somehow manage to look both deeply tragic and aggressively cheugy at the same time. Plus: Alex Cooper’s pregnancy announcement, the terrifying state of media consolidation, and my ongoing belief that nobody under the age of 67 is willingly watching television at 11:35 PM.
On the documentary front, we’re talking HBO’s deeply unsettling “The Crash,” the incredibly charming Martin Short documentary, the return of America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, and the Netflix doc about cyclist Moriah Wilson that I genuinely cannot stop thinking about. There’s also a detour into Leaving Neverland mysteriously disappearing, horrifying true crime reenactment animations, MyFitnessPal publicly humiliating me, and why Coach Kelly screaming at me from DCC might honestly be the only thing capable of fixing my life right now.

| 0:16.1 | Welcome to I Know You Didn't Ask, the unapologetic, unfiltered, and slightly unhinged podcast you |
| 0:21.3 | didn't know you needed. I'm your host, Megan O'Donnell, pop culture obsessive, professional |
| 0:26.0 | oversharer, and the host of your new fix for celebrity gossip, reality TV chaos, books, food |
| 0:32.2 | news, beauty tips, and of course, navigating your life in your 30s. I know you didn't ask, |
| 0:37.2 | but I'm telling you anyways. Sit back, grab a drink, and enjoy the show. Welcome to I Know You Didn't Ask. I'm your host, Megan O'Donnell, and you guys, let's just jump right into a jam-packed episode. I'm actually really excited to record this. It's been a nice long weekend here in New Jersey. Nothing like Memorial Day weekend where it rains about 83% of the time. |
| 0:57.0 | And honestly, I'm a television lover. I'm a homebody at heart. So I don't really hate the fact |
| 1:03.0 | that I was able to just be a hermit all weekend, not really see friends or family. And I could |
| 1:08.9 | just really lean into some of my creepier, |
| 1:12.2 | weirder hobbies. I've been knee-deep in documentaries, you guys. I've been re-watching some |
| 1:17.1 | oldies but goodies this past weekend and we have a lot to talk about. I did a Devil |
| 1:23.1 | Wears Prada part one and part two episode last week and got to say, not my favorite piece of work I put |
| 1:30.0 | out. It's sometimes hard when you're like a podcaster and like you prep an episode for a very |
| 1:35.3 | long time and you like work on it and work on it and work on it. And then like you get to the recording |
| 1:39.1 | and then you edit it and you're like, it's kind of a flop. Like I kind of didn't say a lot of the things I wanted to. |
| 1:46.2 | I didn't want to spoil the film. |
| 1:48.1 | And I think that actually spoiled the episode. |
| 1:51.0 | So I'm like, don't go back and listen to that one. |
| 1:53.3 | But if you do have any time, go back and check out my David episode. |
