Who’s the most famous alum of your high school? Uni, Los Angeles - Marilyn Monroe, Darby Crash

Rest in infinite power to Sly Dunbar🙏🏾🥁🇯🇲 - One of the best musicians and producers ever. - Dub Wise and 1/2 of the Riddim Twins / Sly & Robbie Lowell Fillmore "Sly" Dunbar May 10, 1952 – January 26, 2026

Happy New Year! Wait it's too late to say "Happy New Year". Everyone stop saying "Happy New Year". But it's Tennis New Year in the lead up to the Australian Open, and Michele has predictions for the 2026 Tennis Season. Good to be back podcasting 🎾 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

Remembering Donna Summer on her birthday (December 31, 1948 – May 17, 2012)💙🕊️ The Queen of Disco 🪩

Bad movies can be fun in their own way.

Let’s face it: 2025 sucked. But we had tennis and it both provided escape and brought the pain (Trump at the US Open final, for example). So we did a wrap up episode. Happy holidays and happy new year! #tennisky podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

‘Tis the season for low budget holiday movies in which former child actresses and gay catalog models prompt us to revisit the concept of on-screen heterosexual chemistry 🎄 #thehallmarkchannel

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

The "American Canto" audio excerpt, in a roundabout sort of way, reminded me of my all-time favorite ad for a book, James Lipton's video promoting his memoir of hosting "Inside the Actors Studio". If you've never seen it, buckle up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrMY...

Okay that Lilly Allen album is pretty good!

Excellent fuck you to David Brooks for his recent “the Epstein story doesn’t matter” take www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/o...

NY Post felching article says it’s fairly common among gay men 🤔 I’ve had my share of MM hookups and I don’t believe this is true?

It’s notable that there’s practically no difference between what Elon Musk and MAGA influencers like Tim Pool post unironically and what Russian & Chinese bots trying to destabilize American democracy by posting divisive content do.

Stephen Miller going into the white nationalist reading room only to discover Trump has replaced everything with feminist zines

"She’s not trying to rebuild her reputation as a journalist—she’s building a different kind of brand entirely, one where being interesting matters more than being ethical, where attention is the only currency that still spends." The best thing I have read about her. www.mediaite.com/opinion/the-...

Even for an irrelevant kookball like David Brooks, “The Epstein Story Is Beneath Me” is a surprising take

So, I need to make sure certain people, men in particular, to understand that: 1) knowing the age of consent in ANY state 2) mentioning someone’s age IN YEARS AND MONTHS means that you’ve not only lost the argument, but also that you cannot be trusted. Folks around you will adjust accordingly.

Trump “spent hours” with one of the victims in Epstein’s home, according to email exchange between Maxwell and Epstein. And theres more! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

I think there’s something uniquely triggering to certain wealthy people about the idea of government grocery stores. But they already exist and the city hasn’t collapsed gothamist.com/news/zohran-...

Hilarious that you can see The NY Times thrashing between offensive headlines for the same stupid podcast episode in sequence in the mobile app

The moment Zohran was declared winner 💪

It is gonna be so funny watching the NYC bajillionaires scramble to get appointments with Mayor Mamdani after they all insisted they were gonna move to Florida if he won. First of all, most of you already have places in FL and claim it as your primary resident so you don’t have to pay NYC taxes

There's a sense of resigned exhaustion to the barrage now. I mean, he never resigned in disgrace, is he ready?

Never stop trying NY Times

SCOOP: several days ago Zohran Mamdani was overheard saying he "needs" to eat dinner. An inside source confirmed he had eaten breakfast and lunch that day, giving him an estimated 2+ weeks without additional calories before he might have died from starvation

i was all in on mamdani until i found out that he called his dad's cousin his "aunt" instead of using the term we all know and love, "cousin once removed"

Last episode of the year! We’ll be back in January when the blue courts of Australia try to cure my Winter blues.

Happy 74th Birthday to the legendary Bootsy Collins 🎊🎂

I mean…he really doesn’t play

Do I think a dog Halloween costume parade is cute? Yes. Do I think tens of thousands of instagram-brain zombies literally blocking people from walking down the street is cute? No. Not cute.

Not sure why this is framed as a big problem? Kids are expensive. 3 of them is really expensive (and not necessary) www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/n...

In light of Bjorn Borg's new book, we look back at cocaine in professional tennis. Players who used, players who denied it, and some who danced around the issue (like they used to do at Studio 54?). This week, we bring you The Cocaine Episode podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Trump and his billionaire donors might be able to determine Adams and Cuomo’s actions. But they won't decide this election. In just over 5 weeks, we'll turn the page on the politics of big money and small ideas — and deliver a government every New Yorker can be proud of.

Another desperate attempt by people who can’t stand the idea of New Yorkers electing their mayor instead of billionaires buying one.

Not sure that people appreciate all the work that Gen-X did in the darkest times of AIDS and HIV deaths in which gay, straight and trans people came together and made house music a global phenomenon. That was a very dark time, but we all worked through it together. Not perfect but nothing is

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative. The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

Pleased that I’ve never had the slightest interest in a Disney+ subscription

New AI use case: a chatbot alongside the HBO show “Task” with default text: “WTF is going on now?”

Weird how “hard left” is like “you may need to change doctors” and hard right is like “we may need to kill everyone we don’t like”

We talk the best and the worst from the US Open. Pretty sure you can guess the worst. Plus, more listener tennis takes!

Something bonkers is happening at the US Open every day. Is it the New York weed or the American Berserk? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

New feature! Listener tennis takes. Send us your voice memo and we might play it on our next ep!

This is a great time to remind everyone that EOs aren’t laws, the federal government doesn’t manage voting in this way, and it’s all a scare tactic and any reporting that doesn’t provide that context is enabling potentially lawless activity.

“Weed is NY’s febreeze” is the most beautifulest thing I’ve heard today @perfectmatchpodcast.com

Taylor Townsend wasn’t allowed to play as the #1 junior at 15 years old because the USTA said she had to lose weight. Today, Ostapenko tells her she has no class. But Taylor just keeps on rising. 🐦‍🔥

This week: Medvedev’s homophobic meltdown, Ruud doesn’t like weed smells in NY, Alcaraz’ hair, Serena and Sharapova “bestie” nonsense and more! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

Wow. A bummer of a final but can we just celebrate the beautiful empathy of Carlos Alcaraz?

If you’re worried about the young people today and their mental health crisis, it’s comforting to spend 5 minutes on Nextdoor. The old people are SO much crazier!
