This week’s episode of The Thought SNOB Podcast takes an unexpected turn. Producer Will surprised host Paula with a brand-new discussion style: news headlines. Instead of the usual deep-dive format, Paula was asked to read stories straight from the headlines and share her raw, unfiltered reactions in real time.

From the release of the birthday card Donald Trump once sent Jeffrey Epstein, to the realities of polygamy, to troubling reports of the lowest reading scores for students since 1992, the conversation covers a wide range of current events with honesty, curiosity, and humor. A few additional stories also made the lineup, some of which were almost too strange to believe.

Spontaneous, conversational, and a little experimental, this episode may be one of the most entertaining yet. Listeners can expect sharp insights, candid commentary, and plenty of thought-provoking discussion.
