America's Having a Bad July, but the 2024 Olympics Will Cheer Us Up!
from Millennial: Pretend Adulting, Real Talk · host Laura Tee, Pamela Gocobachi
Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk and the official podcast of the first millennial VP pick, JD Vance! So has anything big happened the last few days? Asking for a friend. Should Biden step down? The panel and Patrons listening live weigh in. We don't want to speak it into existence, but Biden making gaffes at every turn while Trump gets to look like a martyr is not good... JD Vance (aka Trump's mini me) was announced as Trump's running mate in his election 2.0 bid. Does this pick actually do anything for Trump? We make bets on the specific dates we think Biden will drop out of the race! While Americans grapple with another upcoming unprecedented Presidential election, the French are dropping deuces in the river Seine ahead of the summer Olympics. Why are French people pooptesting like this? Because the government has spent a whopping $1.55 billion to clean up the Seine ahead of the Olympics, where marathon and triathlon swimming are set to take place. Unfortunately, we're two weeks out and the river still isn't safe to swim in, even discounting the Parisian Poop Protest. As an unpopular political leader, why would you announce the date you're going to take a dip in the river? How did Macron not see this coming? Which Olympic sports will we be paying attention to, and what sports are new to this year's Olympics? This week's recommendations are entertainment focused, in addition to asking a favor: 'Your Honor' on Netflix (Andrew), 'The Redeem Team' on Netflix (Pam), and a request from Laura to please subscribe to our family of podcast channels on YouTube! Millennial | What the Hype?! | MuggleCast. Subscribing to these channels is FREE and really helps us out! Thank you so much! And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon and Apple Podcasts: Is it ever a good idea to try and out strangers on TikTok for suspected cheating? Is doing this driving accountability, or just a culture of surveillance and punishment? You can't possibly know all of the variables involved in a stranger's romantic entanglements, and putting them on blast without having all the facts is pretty risky y'all. One of our panel speaks from personal experience about being cheated on and how it would not have been helpful to find out about it through TikTok. Learn more about your ad choices.
