In this episode, we dive deep into the stuff that really matters: why are cooking and travel shows so soothing, but watching The Masters golf tournament turns us into anxious wrecks? We also try to crack the code of true crime obsession, the Real Housewives’ ability to turn brunch into a warzone, and dating shows where the real mystery is why anyone agrees to be on them.
We get nostalgic over old movies, question the point of grits (is it food or punishment?), and once again ask why left-lane drivers act like they’re on a Sunday stroll through rush hour. Plus: a definitive guide to the 25 fastest ways to lose your man card (spoiler: watching The Bachelor with commentary is #7).
And if you’ve ever wanted a clear explanation of the tariff strategy—or the strategy behind the coverage of the coverage of the tariff strategy—you won’t find it here. But we do try.
All that, and a quick whip around the news like a host trying to wrap up before the theme music hits.
