In honor of Olivia Rodrigo's new album, we're diving deep into the internet's rarest, most unhinged theories - and I mean rare. Not "who is Vampire about" rare. We're talking Sadlivia, secret Disney NDAs, bodyguard blind items, a cryogenic freezing conspiracy, and whether the Olivia vs. Courtney Love beef was engineered from the start. Which do you think are true, and which seem totally insane?

What if the secret to enjoying life more actually costs you less? Today we have on Annie Raser-Rowland, co-author of The Art of Frugal Hedonism, to talk about her book that simply put, changed my life perspective on spending money, and what it takes to feel pleasure.

We chat about how we've been psychologically conditioned to associate buying things with value , why experiences beat purchases every single time, and how the novelty-seeking itch we're always trying to scratch can be satisfied for free.

So many celebrities claim they don't bother with the internet...but I've always thought that can't be true! The internet is so addictive and enticing and sometimes a crack in the matrix happens and we find proof that celebrities ARE online...but with burner accounts! Today I break down documented cases of celebrities, politicians, CEOs, and athletes getting caught tweeting from fake accounts, and explore the reasons why this might be. Kevin Durant's decade-long burner career. Mitt Romney as Pierre Delecto. The Whole Foods CEO who spent eight years on Yahoo Finance message boards. And Elon Musk, who apparently tweets as his baby, his mother, his father, a German man named Adrian, and an attack dog named babysmurf9000.

Girl beef, so confusing! I'm fascinated every single time I hear about any variation of a complicated female dynamic - whether it's a friendship breakup, a screenshot a friend sends you, or a coded interview quote that everyone knows is about one specific person but nobody will say out loud. Today we're getting into all of it: the psychology of relational aggression and why girls have been doing this forever, why nobody wants to talk about it, and what celebrity culture reveals about these dynamics that your real life never could.

We're breaking down Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift's years-long coded exchanges, the Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber copying spiral that goes way deeper than a tattoo, and the Charli XCX and Lorde WORKING IT OUT on the remix haha that actually gave us a rare happy ending...plus real listener submissions about frenemies at work, girls who copied everything down to their vintage couch, and the best friend you love but also kind of can't stand sometimes.

In this episode, we're digging into the leaked emails from Taylor Swift's dad Scott Swift, the lawsuit from her first manager (who also happened to manage Britney Spears), and what all of it together shows about the "origin story" of Taylor Swift - why we don't consider her a 'child star' and how much of her brand has been managed by her parents.
