I’m just a clueless 20-something enjoying great conversations with people each week that I think would benefit anyone trying to find a brief escape from the reality we’re currently in. Not that the world is all doom and gloom but maybe this is just a time for you that isn’t listening to the news or doom scrolling… Or maybe it is... To each their own. Let’s go on a journey together and see what’s to come:) Explicit night night bitch: esoteric stories for sleep and meditation Mollie Adler Escape the trap of endless doom-scrolling on your phone and enter a mystical world of audio-based enchantment. Picture Miss Honey from Matilda whispering a bedtime story into your ear, creating the audio version of a warm cup of tea combined with a long hug for your nervous system.

This low-key mid-apocalyptic moment has raised a question for Tony-award-winning Sarah Jones and her many characters: America, Who Hurt You?Bookended by the debates, dialogues, and hilarious digressions of the characters made famous by Sarah’s one-person shows and acclaimed film Sell/Buy/Date, this podcast explores our political dramas, personal traumas, and how the two are connected. Plus: we’ll have some of the smartest people we know stop by to sit with Sarah and unpack it all. America, Who Hurt You? holds up a loving but accurate mirror to our country’s range of faces as we try to save democracy—or at least stop doom-scrolling. Explicit
