Welcome back to Mother May I Sleep With podcast.

I'm Molly McAleer and guys, this is one of those episodes where I have someone that I can't even freaking believe I know them and that they're here to talk to us on the show.

You might know Jane Marie from The Dream.

I know her going as far back as this American life.

I also really loved her podcast about Tinder.

Pretty sure it was a branded podcast, but I loved it.

Jane Marie, hi.

Thanks for being here.

Hi.

I loved it too, and it was branded, but we tried to make it sound fun.

It totally didn't and i didn't

sound like a branded podcast and i talk about it a lot like oh really i always am bringing it up to

people as like that is the way to do something like that we won some awards i got to say um yeah

we were like trying really hard not to

make it sound like a commercial. Plus, like, it wasn't hard with that material, you know,

to make something that actually fun and good. Tinder is such a cultural touchstone. It is like

a defining thing of a certain era. So, yeah I, you know, I saw you like thread,

sorry, I was going to say tweet. I saw you thread something the other day where you were

sort of doing a little introduction. I think you got like a new boom of followers. And you said

that you are the reason why people hear hip hop on public radio. And I was so intrigued by that because, you know, it's quite notable when this American life in particular started stepping up in that area. And I love that that was your influence. And that's why I knew when Paul Wall has been in my

Nymph Guthrie TikTok lives, I was like, I can't wait to tell Jane this. Like, you're going to love

that. And you did. I absolutely love Paul Wall. Are you kidding me? I mean, I even, he's one of those rappers that like, when he features on someone else's songs, he like steals the show.
