What are the hallmarks of toxic white girls? And how much of the o...2024-09-051h 07Offline with Jon FavreauHow “The Truman Show” Explains Life in 2024Jon Lovett and Erin Ryan join Max to discuss how “The Truman Show,” predicted our current era of continuous surveillance and content mining.

Why wasn't abortion seen as an issue worthy of mentioning in 1776? On this special, off-topic episode, Janey is going to break down how people in the late 1700s/early 1800s felt about a...2022-06-2955 min
