  • Why Colbert Was Canceled + South Park’s Wild Trump Episode
    Aug 6 2025

    Stephen Colbert is out, CBS quietly handed Trump $16 million, and Trisha Paytas’ baby might be Ozzy Osbourne reincarnated. We’re not saying it’s confirmed… but we’re not not saying it.


    This week, Mae and Laura dig into the Colbert cancellation theories, the real story behind CBS’s Trump settlement, and South Park’s latest Trump episode. They also unpack Huda Beauty’s full descent into conspiracy content, a dystopian new app that watches your every move, and the wild online reaction to the Blackstone exec shooting.


    It’s chaotic, it’s questionable, and it’s exactly what you should expect from the internet right now.

  • We Break Down the Kiss Cam Scandal, Sydney’s Ad Mess, and the Worst App Leak Ever
    Jul 30 2025

    Sydney Sweeney’s new jeans ad might be the most unintentionally (or very intentionally?) eugenics-coded campaign of the year and that’s somehow not even the most cursed brand moment we cover this week. We get into the tea app data breach that exposed women’s personal info, a Coldplay kiss cam scandal that cost a tech CEO his job, a WNBA campaign that sparked a very predictable backlash, and National Grid’s deeply confusing decision to hand out free trees to landless New Yorkers. Let’s doomscroll.

  • Greg’s Glow Up, Elon Musk’s Grok Is Offensive, and A24 Disappointed Us (again)
    Jul 16 2025

    We’re back on Zoom this week Mae’s was on Cape Cod with her family, Laura’s dealing with hecklers, and Greg the cat just got professionally groomed (and immediately took a revenge dump). We cover everything from prison pregnancy “life hacks” to Lily Allen’s overshare about a thousand-dude sex tape. Meanwhile, Elon Musk’s AI bot Grok spirals into full-on extremism, spouting Nazi propaganda and sexually harassing its own CEO. Plus: a hotel handing out birth control at check-in, and a very unfortunate A24 movie we paid $19.99 to regret. Enjoy.
