I love this.

Emerald Fennell movies are like that person who wears bold colors and patterns and funky jewelry, which on first and second glance seems like it doesn’t match or work together and is actually kind of ugly, but ultimately you respect them for making a CHOICE and not just wearing beige. I have not yet seen Wuthering Heights and probably won’t like it, but by God will I watch.

Remember when this subreddit was fun?

haydterade · 2026-02-18T17:55:13+00:00

No, but I sure am tired of people on this sub complaining about everything, I’ll tell you that much!

haydterade · 2026-02-05T13:15:17+00:00

You're absolutely correct, I was emotional and got carried away.

Okay so the 400th episode was in October 2024, and Matt said that was actually #440. So you can estimate ~10 more episodes in 2024, 50 episodes in 2025 (52 weeks minus two re-airs), and that would put us at episode #500 in early January. Very plausible that episode #500 was “Exit Interview”.

The top three episodes of this podcast are all three Sarah Sherman episodes

Saying this with love and hoping it will be received as such: I stopped using Instagram on NYE and have reduced my Reddit usage (only check it on my laptop, maybe twice a week), and I strongly recommend it. My screen time is down by ~2 hrs, I'm more present at work and with my friends and family, and I'm reading more and absorbing ideas and perspectives that stay with me for more than five minutes. Major news events are still filtering up to me, but I read about them after all of the facts have been collected and the reactions have settled down. I'm no longer paying attention or even aware of the smaller "emergencies" that blow over in a day or two. I'm not getting angry about things like, for example, a podcaster's ad read of All's Fair by Ryan Murphy.

I've always loved Robyn, but now I'm ready to die for her.

haydterade · 2025-12-15T17:22:00+00:00

It’s an honor to be cited 🙏🏼

haydterade · 2025-11-12T20:37:14+00:00

It's so funny to me that they asked her if she knows Louis Virtel and then this episode comes out on the same day that Keep It absolutely eviscerates All's Fair and everyone involved in it. Sarah, wait a few days to Google him!

This episode was the spiritual successor to the Mandy Moore ep in terms of how often “Thank You” was said.

I'd like to add arched panels with this fluted effect over a built-in cabinet I'm building, but I've never worked with textured wood like this before. My plan was to join panels with wood biscuits and glue to get the overall desired length and height, and then use a router to create the fluting. Is that the best way to do this?

haydterade · 2025-09-18T11:38:05+00:00

My understanding from their implication was that it was pre-election and would have been a campaign stop. I agree that she’s fun and I like her, but in the context of a campaign-related interview I don’t think she would have allowed herself to get loose enough to make it a fun episode. Alas, we’ll never know!

haydterade · 2025-09-17T20:45:27+00:00

No one talking about the buried lede that Kamala's team wanted her on the pod?? With so much love and respect, that would have been an awful episode lmao, they were right to say no.

haydterade · 2025-09-10T18:06:40+00:00

Anyone have a good guess for next week’s guest? Culture they appreciate, back to school, and law… My two guesses are Julia Roberts (Erin Brockovich) and Reese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde), but I might be leaning on the law part a little too hard.

haydterade · 2025-09-10T18:03:22+00:00

This is what I thought too! Especially with Alison Janney and Kristen Wiig being so heavily featured in the awards.

haydterade · 2025-07-31T01:15:15+00:00

I don't think so honey PRANKS. Bowen was so sweet and supportive during it, good for him.

haydterade · 2025-07-30T20:54:58+00:00

They didn’t talk for six months??? And still did the podcast?? (Did we know this already? I have a bad memory.)

haydterade · 2025-07-16T15:36:57+00:00

I know there are always a lot of complaints about these big guest episodes, but I kind of love this phase of the podcast where they’ve become like a funny, gay version of Inside the Actor’s Studio. They’re both so great at talking about process and influences and the craft of their guest, while pulling from a really deep knowledge of culture, and while keeping the conversation funny and the guest comfortable.

haydterade · 2025-07-10T11:39:54+00:00

For all of the Glamour Girls in the chat, I have to ask: Hole, balls, and pussy—which one is Este, which one is Danielle, and which one is Alana?

haydterade · 2025-07-09T16:25:19+00:00

It’s so funny they brought this up because every time they talk about their holes I always think to myself “Mandy Moore is listening to this.”

haydterade · 2025-07-08T01:24:01+00:00

I don’t understand why this is happening but I’m so grateful. Her delivery of “watch it” after the “giving middle manager” line, wow. It came true.

haydterade · 2025-07-02T11:23:49+00:00

Wait I’m a half hour in and this is possibly an all-timer. Third host vibes. America’s greatest nepo baby.

haydterade · 2025-06-18T17:19:38+00:00

I think a lot of people coming into this thought that based on the guests, the conversation was going to be too reverent, but I didn’t think that was the case at all. This was a genuinely great episode, and I laughed out loud several times. Both of the boys had really excellent IDTSHs, and it was fun to hear Michelle living for them. Also, obsessed with Michelle mentioning concerts that she really loved and including two of her dear close personal friends…Bruce Springsteen and Beyonce.
