E124: Let's Get Biblical! Jun 04, 2020

Show notes

The old adage is true: you can put lipstick on a pig but you cannot shit in a wig, as Lea Michele learned this week. We shut down the MAGA crowd’s attraction to the music of the Village People as well as Trump’s horrific photo op masterminded by Ivanka. We also address several social media nopes, such as comparing the #BlackLivesMatter movement to veganism.

This week we shut down the wolves and the Karens. Specifically, two authors of so-called “wolf-kink erotica” are embroiled in a legal battle over who has dominion over a place called the Omegaverse. Meanwhile, an orchestra of Bolivian pan flautists are stranded in a haunted German castle surrounded by 23 packs of wolves. Also on the agenda: big nope to Central Park Karen, and a discussion of the plight of Karens who are not “Karens” (and the Amys who very much are.)

It’s been another terrible week. Since we last spoke, Alison Roman’s column has been temporarily suspended from the New York Times, leaving us stuck at home with ingredients but no delicious new recipes. Enter Robert Pattinson, who demonstrated how to make an innovative pasta dish in GQ Magazine this month. We also shut down the emerging Ronan Farrow controversy and the critically acclaimed (by him) biography of John Loeb, Jr.

As we enter our second month of sheltering in place, we learned this week of more plagues: a Polar Vortex is about to hit the Eastern seaboard and Murder Hornets have made landfall in Washington state. Meanwhile, Elon Musk and Grimes welcomed their baby boy, named X Æ A-12 Musk and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has decided he has no choice but to eat his neighbors. Struggling with all this confusion and upheaval, we turn to the Asparagus Whisperer to find out what the future holds.

We’re back after a very dramatic one-month hiatus during which we both battled the coronavirus. We share our personal experiences with the virus, and continue to shut down our federal government’s callous disregard for humanity as they profit from the crisis. Also on the docket: a South African couple has been marooned in the Maldives at a five-star resort since March 22; Andrew Cuomo’s possibly pierced nipples have caused a stir among fans and Dr. Deborah Birx has emerged as a Zoom fashion icon.
