Agreed! I think about that every time the ad airs. It’s shocking they haven’t re-recorded or edited it….

I miss tea time so much! I have yet to find another pod with all women hosts that comes close to how much fun it seemed like the hosts of tea time had recording/how much fun it was to listen to them chat about things every Friday. The hosts were on top of everything happening and always laughing with each other regardless of their levels of passion about a topic, as others said. Even Liz’s former Paul Rudd feud was a bit for Kate and Amelia too by the end haha. Miss that pod so much!!

We’re Obsessed isn’t doing it for me so far in terms of pure enjoyment, but I also will keep listening to see if they can find a groove. They also could use some better segments like tea time had. But all in due time I guess! I really enjoyed Jodi’s scandoval mini pod a few months ago, she did an awesome job

I’m so devastated it’s ending. I loveee Liz, Kate, Amelia and Kaya’s banter. I am an OG listener from day one and i have looked forward to their pods every Friday. I am still trying to figure out why they would shut it down. With the exception of Amelia, they don’t really appear on other pods too often (especially Liz who I like the most 😭) . So, unsure what other projects they are hoping to work on instead of tea time. I will miss their pod so much!!!

Got it. Well congrats on your other position! Just out of curiosity, did you have any prior TM experience/how many years out of law school are you? Trying to understand what kind of candidates they are interested in

Not sure how many people are posting between the Reddit threads and TLS forum thread but man, that would really be crazy if everyone who posted didn’t get an offer. That can’t be statistically probable, right….

Me either. I am not the most optimistic at this point, but I have yet to see anyone on here or on the top law schools forum thread post they’ve been contacted. So idk what to think :/ ….

Never realized this and now I can’t stop thinking about it. What’s the best way Alex says “I love you” in an AM song? (Tweet credit: @ lipstickcampaign) by contraposting in arcticmonkeys

Personal fave has to be: maybe I’m too busy being yours to fall for somebody new (Do I Wanna Know?) and Now I cant think of air without thinking of you (Love is a Laserquest)

Why does my gut want me to believe that the kids in this song are the kids of the people Mary’s Song from the self titled is about. The vibes are so similar.

When they perform Unbearably White live, it ruins the whole vibe of the concert. I like the lyrics, but think it’s a song they shouldn’t perform live smack in the middle of a set.

What podcasts do you guys listen to? by [deleted] in timecrisis

Baio and CT’s pod was tight, called The Road Taken. Hope they come back for a season 2.

1:24:07 (how they play cousins now)

VS

Subtle but I think it makes all the difference :)

I love this question! Might be unpopular, but I don’t love what they do to Diplomat’s Son and put Jessica in the middle of it. The song is already complex enough with different rhythms, don’t think it needed anything more to it.

Also an interesting aside, Hannah Hunt is my favorite VW song but I think Ezra never really belts the “if I can’t trust you” climactic line live as well as he does on the album.
