    Enshitted on 'Em

    Is everything getting worse? Well, yes! Julia and Nick break down enshittification, planned obsolescence, and the long history of things being made worse on purpose. From disposable culture to Facebook AI slop, they break down how we've all been conditioned to waste our time and money while being trained to expect basically nothing in return. Digressions include the implications of boyfriends entering the girls' rag hang unannounced, a brief stay in frog paradise, and the AI fridge that watches your baby.

    Everything is Reagan's Fault

    Julia and Eliza finally confront the question: is Ronald Reagan responsible for all the world's evils? To investigate, the girlies delve into Reaganomics, the groundbreaking idea to give rich people more money, and trace how its legacy has trickled down into the capitalist swamp we all wade through today. The girlies also examine Reagan's abysmal impact on human life including his murderously indifferent AIDS response, his systematic defunding of welfare, his IDGAF environmental policies, and many other evils. Digressions include Eliza's upcoming consultation with a pet psychic, Australians getting mad at vowels, and a callback to Nancy the throat goat.
