Hi!
Welcome back to Pop Quiz, my semi-regular pop culture roundup, this time with returning expert Avi Bonnerjee and perfect human Michelle Uranowitz (maybe you remember her from this ep about spiraling on Instagram). This week we discuss everything from Lorde’s rebrand to John Mulaney’s PR disaster to my latest Instagram follow. And so much more! Although sadly we recorded this before the VMAs or the Met Gala like idiots….
Some links to things we mention:
Celebrity Memoir Book Club podcast
Christy Carlson Romano’s YouTube channel
Lorde’s “Solar Power” music video
Clairo on Fallon
“Twitter Has a Parasocial Relationship With the Word Parasocial,” by Sarah Hagi for Gawker
John Mulaney’s weird Seth Myers appearance
The Housewife & the Hustler on Hulu
“The Reality of Reality Television,” by Mark Grief for N+1
Salon.com on (of course) Mike Lindell
@regret_counter_
Hunter S. Thompson’s morning routine
I’m sure I’m missing some but anyway hope you enjoy!
Thanks for listening,
Haley
