Summary
This week, the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome the alternative pop artist and resident Gen Z representative, King Mala! We discuss what it was like growing up as a homeschooled kid in El Paso, the definitions of girl dinner/girl math and why riding in a self-driving car can be less stressful than dealing with a creepy Uber driver. We also get deep into the horror realm when King Mala discusses the 2015 film "The Witch," which had a huge impact on her and even influenced her new album. Finally, in a game of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA we discuss the reboot of "I Know What You Did Last Summer," the return of Lay's fried green tomato flavor and whether the world really needs a mixing bowl mash-up Blizzard from Dairy Queen.(Spoiler alert: It doesn't.) Don't be a boomer and forget to check out King Mala's new album "And You Who Drowned in the Grief of a Golden Thing" when it comes out on May 2nd!!!
