    Lindy and Meagan are Urine-Addicted Mountain Goats

    Today we take on the No Stephen Challenge wherein we DETHRONE Kingleheimer Stephen by spending 20 talking about how we’re not going to talk about him!  Before we kick Stephen to the curb, we use his tragically epic jingle for Normal News. And to really stick it to him, we’re using the segment to talk about feral piss-addicted goat freaks. Take THAT, Stephen!!!!! And then…squish squish we’re gettin’ a little swampy. We’re talking about the renovations that our Supreme Leader has brought to our country! Thank you! We think the pool looks GREAT with the algae, struggling ducklings, and the peeling paint! We see the vision, king!!! If YOU want to hear more political digests by the one and only Meagan Hatcher-Mays, subscribe to Swamp Person on Substack.  And we are taking listener feedback for TikTok Digest!!!

About

Bestselling writer Lindy West and democracy policy expert Meagan Hatcher-Mays are two Award-Winning Best Friends From High School (Most Likely To Make You Laugh in their high school senior poll - sorry to intimidate you!). Each week, Lindy and Meagan hilariously digest what’s going on in the news, their lives and their text threads with their singular combination of political smarts, embarrassing sincerity, and a truly concerning level of investment in pop culture. Text Me Back is a podcast about best friendship and making your favorite people laugh, even when this dumpster fire of a world gets you down.
