We melt down over GTA 6 getting pushed again (why show us a game we can’t play?!), debate whether Taylor’s record-shattering first week was genius marketing or chaos-by-variants, unpack MTV’s channel cuts and the end of Ridiculousness, drag the fact that Love Is Blind S9 had zero weddings, and side-eye live-action Moana while hyping Wicked like proud theater kids.Subscribe now to the Meant 2 Be Podcast and join Marvin (⁠@marvin_martian10⁠) and Rachael (⁠@rosegold_rae⁠) as they explore the highs and lows of love, dating, and marriage.
