F*ck the Press

On our season finale, we talk all things updates: Derek Chauvin, ACLU & Supreme Court, Japan and more. We also talk about political burnout and why it's actually okay to take a break from the news. Follow us everywhere @fckthepress for updates while we're on hiatus besties. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Your girls are fucking vaccinated (almost). Besides that, we went over the murder of Daunte Wright, Biden pulling troops out of Afghanistan and what the fuck is going on with Johnson and Johnson shots (you'll wanna stick around for that one). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

What frat do you guys think Florida's House of Reps would belong to? Idk either. Why don't we ask Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) aka the star of this week's episode (along with infrastructure week and France's new anti-Muslim legislation). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We are very aware that we sound like your parents ranting in this episode and we are very okay with that. Another week but this time it's the intersection between Asian American hate crimes, the model minority myth and the Black community (and Georgia's new voter suppression bill). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

This week we covered #notallbutallwomen and the story of Sarah Everard. Send this one to all the men in your life who still don't have it clicking for them. (Oh, and also: Jared Kushner and his extremely unfortunate op-ed on the Middle East in the Wall Street Journal).

Okay, another week. This time we talked about the success of COVID vaccinations, gave updates on Kenneth Walker and Meghan Markle but mostly focused on our favorite state: Saudi Arabia.

Seli is down absolutely terrible, states are reopening, President Biden is carrying out airstrikes in Syria, and Andrew Cuomo is, well, doing what every man in a position of power does. Plus, Biden is sanctioning Russia and we are finally getting our stimmys. Instagram Twitter --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

No, it's surprisingly not us, even though we may sound like it. LinkedIn hate, Spider-man 3 & girls on coke but most importantly, some actual news. Johnson & Johnson vaccine updates, another COVID relief package, vaccine hoarding & Joe Manchin (don't worry, we are just as tired of him too).

Another absolutely chaotic episode: Senators have to leave deliberations early for V-Day plans, Texans are using jet-skis as modes of transportation, Turks are, yet again, pissed at the US for not endorsing terrorism, and sadly, much, much more. Oh, and we actually use our Twitter now, so check it out. Instagram Twitter --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

On this week's absolutely chaotic episode, we got into the impeachment trials, Canada's new terrorist status for the Proud Boys, and the protests in India.

The only real update from this episode is that Jack Schlossburg is thankfully still on the market. Less important updates include the debate over the COVID-19 relief bill, Marjorie Greene, Myanmar, and Jared Kushner. Yeah, the episode is just as depressing as it sounds. We'll try to have some good news next week and maybe (maybe) just be a little more articulate (probably not). Real news starts at 7:22.

Can we get 5 stars for simply fixing the sound quality. Please.

What's up fuckers. This week we really took a look at what the Biden administration has promised to us for the next 4 years along with a majority of the executive orders President Biden signed on his first day in office.
