This week, Kate watched M3gan and then was served content about AI making podcasters obsolete, so she tries to figure out if she should care about chatGPT and then competes with it to see who does a better job answering listener voicemails. A woman in STEM! This episode covers pressing listener questions, such as:
-Popular girls who painted their nails in class, where are they now? Feat. an incredibly windy tangent about body spray/splash culture in locker rooms and 90s Herbal Essences commercials
-How does she feel about farmfluencers Ballerina Farm and the controversy that they were super rich this whole time?
-What happened to the recipe of sour brite crawlers? And how does that lead Kate to formally ranking off-brand store-bought chocolate milks and grocery chains, then go off on a tangent about how a lack of cultural identity makes people obsess over sports?
-What does Kate think is the current ‘monoculture,’ and how does the speed of the news cycle and the volume of programming aid or prevent in having shared cultural reference points?
Among other things. Enjoy!
