Bumble Sponsor (1:06)
This episode is sponsored by Bumble. And honestly, thank God because dating out there is a full time job. I feel like every woman I know has a Bumble story. Like either a success story, they found their person on the app, or why is this man holding a fish in every photo situation? But Bumble is actually the dating app my girlfriends use and trust because it doesn't feel chaotic, it feels intentional. And that matters. What I love is that Bumble actually listens to women. They were like, okay, you're tired of guessing, you're tired of decoding vibes. So they built tools to make it easier. Like their verification tools are huge. With photo verification and ID verification, you can actually feel confident that this person is who they say they are. Plus, with so many unique prompt options, it's easy to get the conversation started. For my prompt, I would choose one thing to know about my friend group is making fun of each other is our love language. It makes profiles feel more real, more confident and easier to connect with. So if you're tired of the guessing game and want dating to feel easier, download Bumble and make real connections today.
Charlie Sykes (2:08)
I'm Charlie Sykes. Welcome back to the to the Contrary podcast. The word of the week seems to be miscalculation, both abroad and at home. New York Times reporting about all of the Miscalculations by the Trump team about the war in Iran. Apparently, the great geniuses who are running this war really did not think that there would be a global disruption of energy or that the Iranians would fight back so hard. I mean, who actually knew? Who needs real experts? Who needs people who actually know what is going on? Meanwhile, apparently the White House is telling House Republicans to stop emphasizing mass deportations because it's just not working for them. But isn't this a little bit like the political equivalent of unringing the bell, considering the fact that at the convention they're holding up all those signs. Mass deportations. Mass deportations. So in our land of confusion, we have a lot to talk about. And joining me to make sense of our land of confusion, my good friend Molly Jong Fast. How are you, Molly? Little turnaround. I did your podcast, you're doing mine now, right?
