  • Usually love the show..

    Amy chan sounds pretentious and it doesn’t sound helpful. Been listening for years but this last episode made me turn it off before it ended. Of course just my opinion.

  • Eh

    Definition of confirmation bias where she has an idea or a “pattern” and just pulls “evidence” to support it while ignoring anything that doesn’t support that pattern and doesn’t seem open to change her opinion if additional evidence that doesn’t support her is presented. she also just makes widely inaccurate statements presented as fact when they would have been easily fact-checked mid-recording before saying it

  • Booooo

    I came into this podcast, not knowing Alex Cooper and left liking her. This woman is delusional. The amount of sheer speculation she does on her episodes is bananas. Have you ever heard of people changing? People can change. I was a real bar star in my 20s and now I’m a quiet book nerd. Sounds like this gal has never left high school so why would she assume others could?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Deconstructing the Kardashians with MJ Corey
Q: Why do you think people struggle to take the Kardashians seriously as subjects of academic or intellectual study?
Corey suggests that the archetypal nature of the family, combined with a long history of high visibility, makes them a useful test case for theories of media, not simply objects of gossip, and that studying them reveals how culture consumes and propagates celebrity.
Fluently Fixed - Being Defensive, Ending a Meh Relationship, Friends Micro Influencing and more
Q: How do we get over the growing pains of moving in and getting on each other's nerves without harboring any resentment?
It's normal for couples to experience challenges when moving in together, especially during the first year. Communication and patience are key.
Taylor Swift State of the Union (Keleigh Teller Friendship, Performance Art Theory, Jack Antonoff and more)
