We don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the vibes are… off. Somewhere between the rise of the manosphere and every influencer suddenly becoming a “free speech advocate,” it feels like the cultural conversation has taken a hard right turn.

Hi. We’re Jordan and Lauren, and this is a weekly comedy podcast about politics, culture, and whatever fresh nightmare comes next.
