This week, Brooke kicks off the pod with a wholly warranted rant because a children’s book by Julianne Moore about a little girl with freckles who feels different has been banned. BANNED. The Orwellian fever dream (except it’s real!) we find ourselves in continues… At least we have TikTok angels with spoof Republican Makeup tutorials to bring us joy! Brooke also gets into some of the best (and worst) moments from this past weekend’s SNL celeb-packed 50th-anniversary celebration extravaganza. And of course, we have the long-awaited premiere of White Lotus Season 3, and its less than boppin’ theme song. Enjoy!
