Summary

But it is coming. We decided that maybe Jo's birthday isn't the most impactful day for women to shut down the Internet and truth be told we also got cold feet since we've seen a lot of failed internet strikes this summer. But don't worry, we picked a new day for all of us to shut it the f*ck down. In the meantime Jo did a guest appearance on Bridget Todd's podcast "There Are No Girls on the Internet" talking about a strange corner of the Instagram influencer world dedicated to #tradwives, women who channel the false nostalgia of the fifties in order to promote the patriarchy and keep women in a dark and subservient place. Stay tuned at the end of the episode when we announce the actual Women's Day Off the Internet. It's a good one. And happy birthday to Jo! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Instead of trying to explain how downs work in football, they have a kid play a beanbag toss game with things like four tries and six points.

1:29.7

that's going to be the day we shut the internet down. It is not happening because I decided that my
