...................................is there anybody out there?.............................is there anybody out there?...................(tumbleweed rolls by).............(a handsome stranger approaches) "Howdy, partner. Looks like you been starvin' for some internet. You and everybody else. There ain't been no internet this side of the Mississippi since Ol' Zuckerberg set up the Metaverse. But that's a story for another time. The important thing for you to know is that Sarah and Jackie are all out of the internet this week, too. In other words, they decided to talk about what's going on with THEM instead of what's going on ONLINE. Maybe it's for the best. Perhaps we could all learn a little more from listening than scrolling. Who's to say? I heard those two desperados headed out to Silicon Valley. A whole lot of internet out there. At least that's what the other Okies are saying. Two Wednesdays from now, Sarah and Jackie may have a new litter of internet searches to share. Me? I'm just an Eastwoodesque manifestation of this description." Sheesh. That's the last time I do the cactus dumplings. Anyway, the team talks about Jake Novak, sobriety, shame, and The Rehearsal this week. They also touch on paypigs and the Broadway cast of Wicked promoting climate activism. Somehow all this came up without forcing the other to talk about it—what a bunch of sick puppies.
