Transcribe →We're Still Talking About Michael Jackson
4w ago00:35:31Tap to summarizeThis week, we descend into the toxic delusion orbiting Michael Jackson’s most devoted defenders, unpack the slow cultural death spiral of the Met Gala at the hands of Jeff and Lauren Bezos, and discover that Rich is somehow fully on board for The Devil Wears Prada 2. We also revisit an absolutely unhinged vintage clip of Liza Minnelli serenading a deaf lover using what appears to be entirely self-invented sign language, culminating in a jaw-dropping interpretation of the word “Chinese."To access video episodes, bonus episodes and our premium series WAWU—we're covering the newest season of The Comeback right now—check out our Patreon.Tracie's SubstackInstagramTikTok ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

May 200:37:29Tap to summarizeRich loved Michael, which is how we ended up in the moral labyrinth that is Michael Jackson’s legacy.

Transcribe →What Are Male Cheerleaders Called?
Apr 200:42:01Tap to summarizeWe learned a lot of weird things this week. First, male cheerleaders are called "yell leaders." This fact presented itself to us after Jeff Webb—a cheerleading pioneer and Charlie Kirk's mentor—died in a mysterious pickleball accident. Also, did you know they make guns for people without fingers? Plus, Jude Law has like seven kids now, one of whom has a mother who was a contestant on The Voice UK—which is all tied back to Chappell Roan.

Transcribe →Anagrams & Bon Mots
Mar 1200:18:59Tap to summarizeWe got a little too high this time, so it's an extra short episode today. A note from Rich: I really wanted to use this episode as a mini-retelling of my recent long-read at The Guardian, “A Hollywood ‘heir’ made horrific abuse claims against four industry titans. How did he end up in prison?” But my intentions were at odds with my medium: Explaining a twisty story about an aspiring writer who sued powerful men in Hollywood for raping and blacklisting him and then, years later, was convicted for lying in front of the court in said lawsuit was a difficult thing to do coherently on this podcast, which finds us getting high and being unserious. The result was an extremely unfocused retelling of this story that Tracie had to salvage in editing. I think my spoken words do my written ones a disservice nonetheless in this week’s episode, so please trust that the story in print is way wilder, more layered, and I think more consequential to the realities of MeToo’s ideals than what is presented in this week’s episode. If it sounds interesting to you at all in this form, I guarantee you that you will get way more out of the written piece.
