Summary
This week: Jen finally finds out what “the singularity” means, no one is offended by Ricky Gervais - he’s just a hack, watching Selling Sunset and rooting for Chrishell in life, Gen-X irony can spin out of control and create monsters, and thoughts on how America is terminally ill.

| 0:30.0 | No fun, no fun, good shit, good with my gosh, come to bed. |
| 0:35.0 | No fun, the Jen Kirkman podcast season 10. |
| 0:40.0 | This is episode 11. I'm your host Jen Kirkman. How are you guys doing? |
| 0:45.0 | Why am I asking? You can't answer. I mean, you can't answer. I can't hear you. |
| 0:50.0 | But I'm sure everyone go good, and then we all lie to each other because nobody's going to really say how they're doing. |
| 0:57.0 | You can always actually tell me how you're doing if there's time. |
| 1:01.0 | You know, if you're a neighbor of mine or in the elevator going up to our respective floors, and I say how you do, and you can say, |
| 1:09.0 | uh, not great. I, you know, I thought my life would be further along in certain areas by now. And I just got a dog and it's overwhelming. |
| 1:22.0 | And I don't want to return it because I don't want to be one of those people. |
| 1:25.0 | But I'm having a really hard time training him and just basically the joy has been sucked out of my life. |
| 1:31.0 | You could say that to me in an elevator. And then I'd be like, Ding, all right, have a good weekend. |
| 1:38.0 | I'd much rather hear how you're really doing than if you were to tell me, good, because then partially one part of me goes, I know you're lying, and I'm going to lie and say good. |
| 1:48.0 | And what was the point of even that interaction? |
| 1:51.0 | I guess the point of that interaction is we're both humans on this earth. |
| 1:54.0 | Let's acknowledge each other and just have a nice vibe for three seconds. |
| 1:57.0 | But why couldn't we just say that? |
| 1:59.0 | Hi, I'm a human on earth, just recognizing that you're human on earth. And then they say, hi, and then that's it. I would really much rather that than how are you? |
| 2:08.0 | Because that's all we're really saying because we really aren't asking how people are. |
| 2:11.0 | You know, we've got our own problems and we've got boundaries. But if I ask you how you are and you, you really say good, I'm going to judge you. |
| 2:19.0 | I don't think you should be feeling horrible or in anxiety or a state of on we all the time. |
| 2:27.0 | But if you really just know thoughts in your head and you're saying everything's good, well, that's just not true. Everything's not good. |
