This week we have something delicious for our BBLs. We’re doing one big round juicy segment with our angel/tormentor Big Ron aka Ronald Young Jr.!!!!

The topic? The Biggest Loser documentary Fit for TV. Which brings us to...

🚨CONTENT WARNING 🚨

Discussion of: the fat shot drug, people sometimes getting less cute when they lose weight (scream emoji), and extreme diets and extreme weight loss.

Boy oh boy does this d...

🚨CONTENT WARNING 🚨

We did a couple bad things in this episode including:

• We play clips from that guy we hate (skip first 4min if you literally cannot, we get it!)
• We violate the No-Giggle Pledge about that guy we hate
• Weekend at Donny’s: Donald Trump is dead???
• We continue to talk about the Gaylord Texan waterpark closure 😔

Plus NORMAL BREAKING NEWS:

• Not one but TWO new jingles??? 
• Shrew updates (you’ll ne...

What’s up, Gaylords?? (← texas reference)

This week, Lindy and Meagan hit the dusty trails again with their tiny influencer mics. That’s right. These two BBWs take BBW flights to Dallas, Texas for Podcast Movement, the only movement. And where else would they rest their gorgeous heads but at THE Gaylord Texan? The place where the DALLAS COWBOY CHEERLEADERS live??

So we’re networking, we’re being networked at, we’re eating ch...

You won’t believe who we have on the podcast today. She’s a Phillies fan and a Gritty stan  🔔 she’s anti-youth culture 🫶and she washed these guys 💇‍♀️that’s right it’s… KELSEY MCKINNEY.

Kelsey McKinney—beloved Normal Gossip queen, Defector co-founder, and Philly’s own sports mascot oracle—joins the pod for a completely deranged round of FMKHFDCGT with Philadelphia sports mascots. From the chaotic genius of Gritty to...

Hi besties! This week Lindy and Meagan are here with Tidings (vole/shrew updates), Two Minutes Hate (featuring a special guest and piping hot takes on a certain astrophysicist), and SO MUCH MORE (aka we already forgot what we talked about!).

One thing we cannot forget, however…the dangerous influence of publicly spent white lady tears. White ladies…you be careful with that shit mmkay? Meagan is on edge, in awe, and low-key ...

We’re back, sweeties! Can you believe? Lindy is dying to know: how ARE you??

This week we are joined by new best friends Liz Feldman and Jessi Klein! We’re here to titillate, entertain, and alienate these two (of the famed Here to Make Friends podcast). You know Dead to Me. You know Big Mouth. You’re gonna be obsessed with these two, but WE GOT HERE FIRST SO BACK OFF.

But first, it has been a minute and so we must TI...

You guysssssss, guess whaaaaat?? We’re basically back! We are thrilled to share the long lost Popeye segment recorded in a special tin can! Forget everything you THOUGHT you knew about Popeye the Sailor Man! Lindy is bringing justice to a long-forgotten character who is ACTUALLY the reason that little freak is so strong.

We also share a mysterious file titled SPIDERS that Lindy and Meagan too are hearing for the first time!...

Another perfectly timely conversation with pop cultural commentary that remains at the top of everyone's minds!!!!

This week we resurface a Patreon Exclusive and bring it to the masses. Comedian Guy Branum, BEST friend of the show, sat down with Text Me Back co-host Lindy West for a TMB Patreon Exclusive conversation about the Netflix hit series BABY REINDEER. These geniuses explore VITAL questions such as: Is it good f...

We’re awake, we’re awake! 

That’s right, Lindy and Meagan are WIDE AWAKE and here to share a super special previously-only-found-on-Patreon episode from our After Dark series! And this week (aka many months ago) we’re talking about Britbox, baby.

BUT FIRST, we have to talk about Whatch We’re Readin’! Thank you to our lovely Discord/Patreon participants for sending us the “where to start with Terry Prachett” starter kit....

Listen, we gatekept just a little 🤏.

We’ve been dimming the full light of this famous episode on the main so that our Patrons could revel in a megawatt jolt of superiority. But it’s time to release the full ep for the masses. And it has nothing to do with the fact that we are on break and don’t have a new episode for you this week, no matter what our Patrons tell you! 

This week’s fan-favorite episode just got a little...

Okay faithful listeners!! DON’T PANIC but this is the last episode before our summer break! We hope you too are preserving your sanity in whatever way you can. But don’t worry! We will still be doing podcast stuff like guesting on other pods, recording with a few fabulous guests for Text Me Back, releasing our free newsletter NEWSLETTER ME BACK, and god forbid taking a few big long naps. And we’ll also give you a few fun t...

First up, Amy Klobuchar…did our BBW invite get lost in the mail? Did we bump our heads and forget that we were honored attendees?? Ames??????

But headlining this episode is a BRAND NEW *I CAN FIX HER* JINGLE!! Thank you listener Krista!!! We simply had to share it and therefore are reporting on that which is fixing us. Namely wax strips and a certain piece of non-religious literature sent by an anonymous Tom ;)

Next, our val...

This week, we’re happy to report that Hat Girl Summer continues with some incredible reporting from the Grace Jones concert that Meagan attended. HAT. She made friends with all the sapphics and twinks so sometimes life is still good??? BTW happy pride, listeners! If you’re reading this you’re officially a little GAY (complimentary!!!!!!!!!!!)

And from there, we get into some classic Pre-Taped Call-In show news where we brea...
