Text Me Back! With Lindy West And Meagan Hatcher-Mays

Meagan & Lindy

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.

    Lindy and Meagan’s Out of Office Auto-Reply (Our Franchesca Ramsey/Lace Front Beard Wig Episode)

    Guest what Textmebackolytes…we’re ONE WEEK AWAY from new episodes and new unhinged content, bad ideas, and broken brains. We miss you weirdos!! We need 7 more days to pull ourselves together and apply our lace front beard wigs. So today we are re-airing one of our favorite eps featuring the INCREDIBLE Franchesca Ramsey. Franchesca’s presence punctures one of the central tenets of Text Me Back - for SHE has a podcast called (Lemme Fix it!) AND she is also the iconic host of Webby nominated series We Were All Rooting for You. We have people looking into this, but initial reporting suggests that there may be other podcasts apart from Text Me Back. Seems suspicious, but we will circle back when we know more. And we’re talking about our TOP CELEBRITY BEEFS. You’ll never guess who we have called out, betrayed, and been blocked by. Thomas Lennon, follow Lindy again if you forgive us!! Sorry we didn’t like that one movie you were in, buddy!!! And because we’re talking about internet psychos, that naturally brings us to Tyra Banks, America’s Next Top Model, and Jake and Logan Paul.  NEVER LISTENED TO THE POD BEFORE?
