Act Outs

from Poog with Kate Berlant and Jacqueline Novak

It’s almost eerie what you can act yourself into. Jacqueline is sourcing Christmas for comfort and Kate is experimenting with corkage fees. An update on the cruel barista drives Kate and Jacqueline to revisit role-play, as eavesdroppers weigh in. A 4pm ‘Matcha & Myss’ is considered and the healing archetype of Larry David is called upon. Avoidance drives Kate to act out purchasing a pie, as a heart is carved into the ankle. Another ghost at another hotel — energy hygiene now. Scientology style.  🎙️ Rate and Review. 🌟 Premium Feed: Subscribe🛍️ Shop Our Favorites: Shop My Store👕 Official Merch: Merchtable Store📱 Instagram: @poogpodcast If you ever hear an ad during the show that you suspect shouldn't be there - please immediately let the Berlant & Novak ads team know at [email protected] there are strict blocks on certain ad categories in the show's automated ads system, **sometimes advertisers find ways to circumvent these restrictions**.
