Hi friends! I’m taking a little break from the pod to enjoy the last few weeks of summer. I will be back after Labor Day. There’s SO much I want to cover from the Amanda Knox FX show, Golden Bachelor, Love is Blind, RIP AND JUST LIKE THAT, and much much more!
In the meantime, please enjoy my most recent appearance on Broad Culture with Cheryl Smallman. We discuss the 2nd season of America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.
Feel free to DM your thoughts and ideas while I’m away.
