Ej had her baby! Even though Brittany tries and fails to get the name Giuseppe off the ground, we promise Ej gave her newborn an iconic name. That being said, we share some news about the podcast’s future as Ej goes on maternity leave and get in one episode full of people who can’t stop pissing us off beforehand, like everyone behind Blonde, a movie so bad it led to an online debate about whether or not non-hotties can write about historical hotties. Other topics discussed: the Try Guys Try Infidelity; the right’s uproar over Lizzo playing James Madison’s crystal flute and EJ quizzes Brittany on some of our notable past himbos.Links referred to in this episode: https://twitter.com/TereseMarieM/status/1575270063518752768 https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/try-guys-ned-fulmer-leaves-youtube-1234600780/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6fIp7mMJ90&feature=youtu.be https://twitter.com/cmclymer/status/1574967955871629312 https://www.tiktok.com/@itsmerkey/video/7147016346662898987?is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=7147016346662898987 Learn more about your ad choices.
