PP 16: It Finally Happened. Oct 05, 2023

Show notes

MUCH TO DISCUSS. Dianne Feinstein is finally dead. The WGA strike is over, but things might be beginning to shift at the streamers. Can they survive or will they have to consolidate? We pore over the details of the new deal so you don't have to. It's interesting stuff! We also talk about NAKED ATTRACTION, the UK import that's already number one on HBO (we aren't calling it MAX, sorry). Plus, Ozempic is changing so many industries, and airlines could be one of those who benefits from a thinner populace. ALSO also: Mark Zuckerberg's prototype VR feature makes the metaverse look amazing and less and less like a joke, Linda Yaccarino gets spanked in front of 400 people, Mr Beast locks a guy in a grocery store, and finally...RFK Jr does a backflip.

PP 15: Enough Taylor Swift Already, A Corrupt Cuban King, Biden Joins UAW Strike Sep 28, 2023

Show notes

Taylor Swift is everywhere. She's behind you right now. It's too much. It's constant, it HAS to be reaching a tipping point, right guys? She and Travis Kelce have to be getting paid by the government or something. Or has our culture just gotten to the point where we all collectively just focus on ONE thing each week? Seemingly ranch, right guys? LOL!!!! Anyway. We also cover all you need to know about the corrupt Cuban king ROBERT MENENDEZ, because man oh man is that guy shady as hell (and we love him for it). Also we cover the latest with Joe Biden visiting the UAW strike, and finally, the brand new $499 per month TINDER SELECT.

PP 14: Taking Oil Money, Airbnb is Over, Everyone's Striking, Rite Aid Sucks Sep 21, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to another episode of Pay Pigs! We got a doozy for ya folks, because we landed our first big sponsorship from BP and Shell. In this episode we'll fill you in on why you're probably more likely to see your favorite influencer shilling for big oil than you are to see these companies implement any actual meaningful changes. We're also talking about the United Auto Workers (UAW) strike and all you need to know about it. We also cover some massive updates to Airbnb policies in a few big cities including and especially New York City, and why Rite-Aid is filing for bankruptcy.
