Episode 6 - Our Right Wing Grift Begins

CW: eating disorders, barfing Happy solstice, old! Like and subscribe for our foolproof, 5-step program to become a right wing grifter! Side effects may include botched plastic surgery and disintegration of all dignity. This week, Blake is staying young with Schadenfreude following the Trump and Elon break up, but the politics of girlhood are both aging and impressing him. Heather felt very old and confused and homophobic visiting Fire Island and not finding a public bathroom, but absolutely loved discovering neurodivergent accessibility haircut TikTok. A weighted cape? Fashion AND function! The two spend way too much time talking about barfing, when it’s a great option and when it isn’t, the implications of depicting barfing in a video, and Blake’s accidentally operatic barf sounds. Volume way down! Blake is grateful for YouTube stardom because he finally won the SEO against a priest with his same name. Heather misses stumbleupon.com, but it’s okay because they can (and do!) cry into the 2:28 min YouTube super cut of “It Justifies the Beans.”  The Depression Meal Mondays jingle as a duet just might work, Taco Bell must have really high profit margins, Blake still loves cheese and bread, and Heather had a perfectly normal depression meal that got VERY WEIRD thanks to homestay hosts. Our theme song “Old” is written and performed by the band pop kiss, fronted by Nicole and Sydney Patrick  @popkisstheband @niconeeek @sydneypatrick_ Learn more about your ad choices.
