Welcome to the Double X Gap Fest for Thursday, May 3rd.

Has Amy Schumer bought the Beauty Myth Edition?

I'm Hannah Rosen, a host of NPR's Invisibilia.

In the New York studios, we have June Thomas, who is now senior managing producer of the Slate Podcast Network. Hi, June. Hey, Hannah. Thank you. And Noreen Malone of New York Magazine. Hi, Noreen. Hello. So guys, guess who was at the restaurant where I had dinner last night? Who's that? Ivanka and Jared. Shut the fuck up. Definitely. the full Javanka. Tell me. Yeah, the full Javanka. The weird thing was nobody talks to them.

It's kind of an Who's that? Ivanka and Jared. Shut the fuck up. Definitely. The full Javanka.

Tell me.

Yeah, the full Javanka.

The weird thing was nobody talks to them. It's kind of an interesting phenomenon. Both times I've seen them because they are celebrities, but it's not the same celebrities, I think, because they're in D.C. and it's kind of liberal place. Nobody walks up to them and it's like, hey, guys, wow. nice to meet you. It's kind of, they just sit there awkwardly while at the adjoining tables

or all the

giant secret service people, you know, having to eat this like ridiculously small plates

that they serve in this particular restaurant.

And so, huh, it's awkwardness.

Are they, I have a couple questions, many questions.

Are they like in the scrum of things in the restaurant or are they back like in a special area? In the scrum. They are not in a special area, but they sit side by side, which is unusual. Okay, that was my second. Most people don't sit that way. Yeah. What is the body language between them? How happy slash unhappy. It's cute. I mean, they seem to be chatting. It's like, you know, marriage cute. So they're not like having animated date style conversations. They're chatting with each other. And the awkwardness is that they're kind of looking around, you know, because they are famous and people start to notice them after a while. But in the whole time I was there, nobody comes up to them. And it's a pretty small restaurant. so like one giant secret service guy has to sit like in the hallway by the bathroom and the other. It's just like

these giant guys is what makes them so obvious because it's a place of little plates. And there

are these gigantic guys. And they're both tiny people in a certain key sense. Like they're both

very, very slight. And so I'm sure that was added to the contrast.

Yes, tiny people, small plates, giant secret service guys. Anyway, it was exciting or not. I want to get going. But first I want to say so many of you wrote us about our pee tape edition saying we didn't say that they were peeing on the obet, that the prostitutes that Trump did or didn't hire or the Russians hired were peeing on the bed where supposedly the Obamas had slept. Now, I think that we did, but we just didn't emphasize it strongly enough. So I don't know that I want to apologize, but it did make a lot of our listeners annoyed at us. And so I'm not 100% sure how to respond, except to say we should have emphasized it more. I'm not really sure how to respond. But just letting you guys know that a lot of you pointed it out. Okay. So our topics for today, I feel pretty, a new Amy Schumer movie, but really what it says about modern day beauty standards.

That's what we're going to discuss.

Second, in-cell, involuntary celibates, Alex Menassian, the guy who rammed his van into 10 people in Toronto, and most of them were women, was supposedly an involuntary celibate, a man who thinks women are denying him sex.
