Another week of content in the land of the free. Today we're talking Chechnya affairs, Ukraine's mineral deal and Elon's attempts at improv classes. Are they working? Is he funny? Are people actually forced to laugh to keep their jobs? Smart money is on the latter but you decide.
Housekeeping: we are working on the sound issue on both our ends. We're poor and with the price of microphones going on because oh I dunno tariffs I'm going to need to turn a lot more tricks to get this mic money. But do know that we have heard some of you and we're also trying on fan mail so if you see a link drop a comment.
P.S. The last episode promised OG Elon art and it appears to only have shown up on the Spotify release and not on Apple podcasts side.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
