20 min into "Baby Jessica" and all that's established is that this was a media circus and the "Well" is smaller than a basketball. The guest brings absolutely nothing to the table; in fact sets the conversation completely backwards. She is on an episode / podcast about media portrayals and doesn't know what "24 hr news cycle" means? Get out of town. This Podcast is for people who have absolutely NO media awareness.
Moira is a shitlib but anarchists are just the most highly evolved shitlib, at the end of the day.
Love the comment about all the holidays being squished on the calendar and then... 3 more months of winter in the Northern hemisphere. 😂 Totally agree it would be great to space them out!
I think he wrote his legal name simply because it would come up as who he is when they are trying to identify a body potentially in the future and it was a move of logic and closure for his family.
how do we broadcast this to all of the trad wives trending at the moment?
what a fantastic episode
There's a lot of good discussion in this podcast, but I agree that it sidesteps the main causes for anti-phone concern: mental illness statistics over time and the attention economy. I don't think social media use can be evaluated without discussing those things.
As the parent of a preteen/teen who tried to commit suicide due to social media messaging, etc…yeah….im immediately disappointed with this episode. Do either of you have kids? The uptick in mental health issues is kids is HUGE.
this was not a good episode, did you guys do any research at all?
Wow--I never heard of this Momo conspiracy before. Momo is the name of my new cat.😹

I'm just commenting to try and get a free month on this app
fantastic episode I agree. waited for the moment Courtney outed Weinstein. booo ❤️
this is my first book club series from you're wrong about and I'm really digging it I usually avoid book discussions but this is all right they have such great banter though
tried 5 more minutes and the giggly disrespectful attitude and constant "OMGGG" makes me want to pull my skin off
her constant interruption, moaning "uhm hum" and over the top laughing really made it impossible to listen more than 5 minutes... what a shame
She actually received a 1.2 million dollar trust fund which said was all lost due to bad investments.
1:00:47 "Have you seen a baby? Those f**kers are pathetic!" 🤣🤣🤣
