Good morning, Millennials. Welcome back to the morning. Toes Tappy Monday. I am Claudia Asre and I am pro-choice.

0:07.0

Hey, Claude, how are you doing? I'm doing good. I'm doing good. It's been a crazy couple of days.

0:11.5

It's been a crazy couple of days and I feel like a lot of people want to hear from us.

0:16.0

Hear what we have to say about. We are just lightning rods in our industry.

0:19.5

We really are. We're like female icons and I do feel like, you know, moguls.

0:24.5

Sorry, I misspoke. I feel like if we don't, you know, talk about the news of the weekend

0:28.5

that a lot of people will come for our next. Yeah. We find ourselves in a difficult position.

0:33.5

We actually had like an hour long face time this morning about how we wanted to tackle this.

0:37.0

Because as you guys know, our policy here at the morning shows is like we really,

0:40.5

we do not talk about politics for a multitude of reasons.

0:43.0

But mostly because like this show is everything of the story and I think a lot of people rely on this show.

0:55.0

And a part of being just like a human being in America right now with access to social media.

1:01.0

It's like it's so overwhelming and it's so taxing like how inundated with information you are and how like even like the influencer culture of like having to post forever.

1:12.5

Like it's extremely toxic, I think. Yeah. And it's really bizarre the influencer culture where it's like everybody posts the same infographic that really isn't like moving the needle or or saying much.

1:23.0

They just like don't want to be. Yeah, or like mark just like I think I think this or I didn't say anything about that.

1:30.5

And it's not really about caring about what's going on. It's just about like front facing.

1:35.0

And so if someone you follow like hasn't posted it never occurs to someone like maybe they're processing.

1:39.5

Maybe they're figuring out how they feel. Maybe they're talking to their local representatives or posting on social media is not an indication of how you feel.

1:48.5

Maybe they're not an expert on the matter. Right. So like it's it's a very weird space to be fine ourselves in and this weekend I think was really emblematic of that because I think a lot of people were internalizing the information and like when it came out on Friday.

2:02.5

It was very alarming you know it was like oh my god the world is ending and when when you actually like when you look into what what's happening.

2:13.5
