Ep. 16: Intent Matters w/ @kitesrfun

Our last two episodes were on the heavier side, so we could not be more pleased to switch up the vibe. The delightfully acerbic $pendy O Williams returns to HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH for an absolute BANGER of an episode. Poolhouse and Spendy are SICK AND TIRED OF THE BULLSHIT, and they aren’t gonna take it anymore! Between psycho tr*nny killers, out of control DA’s, and San Francisco teetering on the brink of colapse, there is plenty for these two to get TOTALLY WORKED UP OVER (well, mostly Poolhouse, Spendy is cool as a cucumber). The two also recount some wild glimpses into their party people past and discover they share a Tenderloin connection. Poolhouse posits a wild true crime theory, while Spendy shares what pushed her to lash out at green-haired, neurodivergent veteran with AGP.

My schizo cousin mentioned in the pod actually invented this term!Additional theme music: This is a public episode.
