    Episode 072: "Regardless, It’s Bad"

    Let’s start with the goal, right? Eclipse season looms large, as Kate and Jacqueline meet eyes under the studio lights. A search for meaning around some light symptoms inspires a Novak analysis. Caroline Myss graces Hag ears as Jacqueline bemoans Kate not submitting to this recommendation earlier. The ego wants to call even when there is no question. Male healers are remembered for their unorthodox tools and middling results. When the phone dies, birds are singing. Amid the reckoning of generic Wellbutrin, a new ADD method is born. Deviated septum nose job culture and a boyfriend in medical school — act now or die!   🎙️ Rate and Review.  🌟 Premium Feed: Subscribe 🛍️ Shop Our Favorites: Shop My Store 👕 Official Merch: Merchtable Store 📱 Instagram: @poogpodcast   If you ever hear an ad during the show that you suspect shouldn't be there - please immediately let the Berlant & Novak ads team know at podcasts@wearebv.com While there are strict blocks on certain ad categories in the show's automated ads system, **sometimes advertisers find ways to circumvent these restrictions**.

    Episode 070: "Silent, Internal, and Painful"

    Glory when someone submits to your recommendation. Jacqueline and Kate revisit the hardest acting challenge: surprise. The Hags’ second ever guest breaks in unexpectedly much like a tiger into a church, and childhood memories of vomit re-examined. Jacqueline was cabinet maker before she was ever a standup comedian. And Uncle Fester meant more than you know to Kate. Sometimes the art is too good and other times civic rage drives one to use big words poorly. In other news, Kate is starting pre-med and Jacqueline’s becoming a trial lawyer. It's always and therefore never too late.    Edited and mixed by Allie Graham Music by Naomi McPherson   🎙️ Rate and Review.  🌟 Premium Feed: Subscribe 🛍️ Shop Our Favorites: Shop My Store 👕 Official Merch: Merchtable Store 📱 Instagram: @poogpodcast   If you ever hear an ad during the show that you suspect shouldn't be there - please immediately let the Berlant & Novak ads team know at podcasts@wearebv.com While there are strict blocks on certain ad categories in the show's automated ads system, **sometimes advertisers find ways to circumvent these restrictions**.

    Episode 069: "Probably the Ugliest Woman"

    Kate and Jacqueline analyze what made a man on Twitter say such a nasty thing. The hags reflect on the indecency of Pop Crave and the courage it takes to feel ugly next to beautiful women. Jacqueline recounts interactions with trolls and Kate considers starting a Serial-esque podcast to get closure. Some of these men have dogs — daughters, even. Ultimately, this is the abstraction of violence — but the Hags wonder whether Daniel was just fulfilling his sacred contract to Kate. The walking brain is different and if you post about Tom Cruise he will see it.   Edited and mixed by Allie Graham Music by Naomi McPherson   🎙️ Rate and Review.  🌟 Premium Feed: Subscribe 🛍️ Shop Our Favorites: Shop My Store 👕 Official Merch: Merchtable Store 📱 Instagram: @poogpodcast   If you ever hear an ad during the show that you suspect shouldn't be there - please immediately let the Berlant & Novak ads team know at podcasts@wearebv.com While there are strict blocks on certain ad categories in the show's automated ads system, **sometimes advertisers find ways to circumvent these restrictions**.
