(but thanks for that quote anyway). Hosted by Klein, Ally, and a cast of weirdos (both on the team and from their audience), the show is known for its raw, offbeat style, offering a mix of sarcastic banter, candid interviews, and an unfiltered take on everything from culture to the chaos of everyday life. With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.

Sweet dibbets! The Box of Shame was a doozy today. We learned Vanessa returned a puppy after she had homicidal thoughts about it. She's not a bad person or anything, she just wanted to kill a puppy. Jack Antonoff stopped by to talk about new Bleachers music and accidentally announced a tour! This time Klein did not give away his jacket, but Jack did grill him on his apathy toward music and reviewed his Medium Ass song. Long story short, they're making an album together now. We also closed out l Olympic week with the Homo-lympics where people called in with their gay tendencies, including a man who exclusively buys lip gloss at Ulta. We also heard probably the most depressing edition of Jake's journal along with his day2 attempt at a free donut from Krispy Kreme.

pWotD Episode 3198: 68th Annual Grammy Awards Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 844,030 views on Monday, 2 February 2026 our article of the day is 68th Annual Grammy Awards.The 68th Annual Grammy Awards honored the best recordings, compositions, and artists from August 31, 2024, to August 30, 2025, as chosen by the members of the Recording Academy, on February 1, 2026. In its 23rd year at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and for the very last time, the ceremony was broadcast on CBS and available to stream on Paramount+. South African comedian Trevor Noah hosted the ceremony for the sixth consecutive and final time.Kendrick Lamar was the night's biggest winner for the second consecutive year with five wins, including a second consecutive Record of the Year win with "Luther" and a sweep in the Rap categories, winning Best Rap Album for GNX. His fourth five-win Grammy night in his career, Lamar surpassed Jay-Z to become the most-awarded hip-hop artist in Grammy Awards history. Bad Bunny followed him with three wins, including Album of the Year for Debí Tirar Más Fotos, becoming the first Spanish-language album to receive the honor. Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas won Song of the Year for "Wildflower", becoming the most-awarded artists in the category in Grammy Awards history with three wins each. Eilish's win also tied her with Adele for the most wins in the General Field by a female artist, with seven each. Olivia Dean won Best New Artist, the ninth woman in a row to win the award and the first British winner since Dua Lipa in 2019, while Tyler, The Creator's Chromakopia and Zach Top's Ain't in It for My Health took home the inaugural Best Album Cover and Best Traditional Country Album awards. "Golden" from KPop Demon Hunters won Best Song Written For Visual Media, becoming the first K-pop song to win a Grammy award in any category.Steven Spielberg won Best Music Film for his role in producing Music by John Williams. Though industry sources claim this win made him the 22nd person to achieve EGOT status, this claim is disputed; he is not credited in Tony Award records as a winning producer of the musical A Strange Loop (which previously made Jennifer Hudson the 17th EGOT winner, and also counted towards the non-competitive EGOT of Amblin Entertainment co-founder Frank Marshall) at the 75th Tony Awards, but one source claims he nonetheless received a Tony statuette in that capacity, and he is listed as a producer of A Strange Loop in the Internet Broadway Database. Lamar led the Grammy Awards with nine nominations, while Jack Antonoff, Cirkut and Lady Gaga followed with seven nominations each.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:23 UTC on Tuesday, 3 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see 68th Annual Grammy Awards on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Matthew.

Straight From the Horse's Mouth

In today's episode, we break down four major stories shaking up sports, music, and pop culture.First, we dive into Pablo Torre's detailed reporting on Riley Gaines — what he revealed, why the story matters, and how the discourse around it keeps evolving.Then we shift to the NBA world, where tension is rising between former All-Star Kenyon Martin and Warriors forward Draymond Green. We get into what sparked the beef, who's saying what, and whether this is just talk or something deeper.Next, we look at producer Jack Antonoff's recent comments on the outrageous state of concert ticket pricing. Is the industry broken? Are artists stuck? We unpack what he said and why so many fans are fed up.Finally, we tap into Denzel Curry's blunt take on the current state of hip hop — where he thinks the genre is failing, where it's thriving, and what needs to change.We discuss all of this and more—so remember, if you didn't hear it from the horse's mouth, stop listening to the ass who told you.#PabloTorre #RileyGaines #KenyonMartin #DraymondGreen #NBA #JackAntonoff #ConcertTickets #TicketPrices #DenzelCurry #HipHop #MusicNews #PopCultureSONG OF THE EPISODE: Moby- South Side Follow us on All Platforms: Bryce Olden:  https://www.instagram.com/brycedavidoldenBryce Davis: https://www.instagram.com/bruc3l3royBryce Olden: https://www.facebook.com/bryce.oldenBryce Olden: https://x.com/BryceSFHMShow

The Secret Teachings

BEST OF: The 2024 MTV VMA was another example of a powerful religious-cult operating through entertainment to influence society. Taylor Swift was awarded Video of the Year, Sabrina Carpenter won Song of the Year, Katy Perry won the Vanguard Award and performed a gravity defying song, and Megan Thee Stallion performed Mamushi with Yuki Chiba. Swift has stayed in the news for her endorsement of Kamala Harris, and when winning her aware she thanked her boyfriend Travis Kelce who may also now be encouraged to endorse Harris - recall other were involved with ERAS-ERIS, the goddess of discord. But Taylor Swift isn't as powerful as she may seem, certainly not to make her own decisions. Not only has she called out the Soros family for stripping her of music rights but most of her music itself is written by someone else. Jack Antonoff was behind ‘Look What You Made Me Do', and countless other songs not to mention his work with Lana Del Rey, Aaron Dessner was behind Willow, and countless other songs, and both Max Martin and his protege Shellback contribute heavily to her discography. People like Martin have been operating in the music industry for decades, writing dozens of hits - 26 Number One hits - for everyone from the Backstreet Boys and Brittany Spears (Hit Me Baby One More Time), to Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift. Further, he obtains the lyrics and beats through a sort of channeling. Even Elton John does this through mixing word cutouts to write songs. In the world of comics we find an equivalent character in Alan Moore, a magician behind iconic works like V For Vendetta and Watchmen. Moore is also open about his worship of a Greco-Roman snake god named Glycon, a deity of oracle and moneymaking. The difference between obtaining influence from the MUSES or power from unconscious DEMONS is what the byproduct of the contract is: beauty or ugliness. The song Mamushi features the profaning of and degrading not of America but of Japan, as Thee Stallion encourages Japanese girls to be promiscuous and lure men to their death. In the song, Megan literally is naked on a rock like a Siren, in a sacred Onsen, where she then pollutes the purifying water and transforms into a Mamushi snake to kill a man. A 2023 song by Sabrina Carpenter was filmed in a church and her video was so perverse and disgusting the priests had to re-bless the altar when she left. These images are far different than the music, sculptures, and paintings of artists throughout history. Perry's VMA performance featured the arch of hysteria from witchcraft, a portal, and we assume from the other side came an alien who Sabrina Carpenter kissed on television. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

An episode that dives deep into the neurodivergent narrative!Here's what's in store for today's episode: * We kick off this episode by discussing Lena Dunham's EDS diagnosis, a condition frequently co-occurring with autism.* The reason HBO's Girls resonates with us so deeply is simple—it's an autistic show created by an autistic mind.* We start by discussing Lena Dunham's art school background and creative writing degree—writing is a special interest for many of us here at Autistica.* Lena Dunham's character in Girls constantly faces rejection as a writer and exhibits classic traits of rejection-sensitive dysphoria.* Additionally, her film Tiny Furniture highlights the challenges with transitions that autistic people often experience.* We discuss her memoir, Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She's Learned, exploring how its pages lend themselves to neurodivergent coding and how certain passages have been misinterpreted.* After being canceled over the passage in her memoir, Lena Dunham's career trajectory began to decline—coinciding with the time she started experiencing symptoms of chronic illness.* At this point, what happened to Lena Dunham was essentially autistic burnout—she hit a wall, just as many of us do!* Our hosts discuss how autistic people thrive when we have the freedom to do our own thing and maintain a high level of control over our work environments.* When we can't control our environments, it leads to conditions like EDS and POTS—often comorbid with neurodivergence—because of the heightened stress we experience.* In the show, which is loosely based on Dunham's own life, her character discusses sensitivities to clothing and struggles with transitions with her therapist—both hallmark autistic traits.* Lena Dunham has undoubtedly been misinterpreted—she has expressed taboo ideas in her work because she doesn't naturally pick up on social cues, which is inherently autistic.* The quirks Lena Dunham exhibits in certain episodes of Girls and in her personal life often come across as distinctly autistic-coded.* Another main character in the show, Shoshanna, is actually referred to as canonically autistic in Girls—and, well, we tend to stick together!* We also discuss the part of Girls where Dunham's character attends the Iowa Writers' Workshop and how these programs often trigger rejection-sensitive dysphoria and aren't designed to be neurodivergent-friendly.* This leads to a tie-in with our Neurodivergent Narratives writing workshop program for our paid members of Autistica, which offers a PDA-affirming and neurodivergence-affirming approach to writing workshops.* We talk about Lena Dunham's marriage to songwriting genius Jack Antonoff and how he exhibits neurodivergent coding in the songs he's written for his bands, Fun. and Bleachers.* Finally, we discuss the autistic connection between Lena Dunham and Taylor Swift, and what happens when autistic people recognize and understand each other.“When I tell people I'm autistic, they say, ‘I don't see it.' Then I say, ‘well, I'm a Taurus', and they say, ‘that makes sense.'” - Matt“A minute ago, we were talking about how exciting it is that she went to college, made a movie, went to South by Southwest, and got a film greenlit by HBO. Does this sound like an autistic thing that happens? Works 24 hours a day, wins every award, is a media darling, and then is f*****g hated by everyone?” - Angela“This is a common thing among autistic people, because when you're young and vital and stuff, you put a lot of energy out there and then, for some reason, we expect that we're going to be able to maintain that level of energy throughout our lives. We cannot.” - Matt“We experience far more stress than neurotypical people, because we live in a world that constantly bombards us with sensory information, with data. We have to mask all the time. We have more stuff that stresses us out than neurotypicals do. So, we are more likely to have all of these things, but again, we don't know if it's a 1:1 ratio that, just plain being autistic means it's more common.” - MattDid you enjoy this episode? We delved into how autism intersects with various aspects of life, from Lena Dunham's neurodivergent-coded characters to the struggles of navigating rejection-sensitive dysphoria and burnout. Tune in as we explore the nuances of being neurodivergent in creative spaces and the connections between autistic individuals, like Lena Dunham and Taylor Swift.

Dunham, the creator of HBO’s GIRLS, says when she was younger, she thought she’d be a "Gender and Women’s Studies teacher who showed movies at the occasional film festival." Instead she's trying to figure out what to wear to shoot the cover of Rolling Stone. Dunham talks with Alec about getting a dog and her first date with her boyfriend Jack Antonoff. She’s not ready for children—yet—but they are on her mind: “I was raised to think that the two most important things you could do in your life were to have a passionate, generous relationship to your work and to raise children.” Originally aired January 21, 2013See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's guest is the ultimate overachiever in pop music—producer, songwriter, artist, and, let's face it, the reason half your favorite albums sound the way they do. From crafting massive hits with Taylor Swift, Lorde, and Lana Del Rey to fronting his own band, Bleachers, he's a master at blending raw emotion with anthemic hooks that stick. Whether he's digging into suburban nostalgia or redefining modern pop, his fingerprints are all over the sound of the last decade. Oh, and did we mention he's a three-time Producer of the Year Grammy winner? No big deal. And as if that's not enough, we couldn't think of a better guest to celebrate our 200th episode. He's the heart, the brain, and the relentless energy behind it all. And The Writer Is…Jack Antonoff! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sam Gold's “Romeo + Juliet” Is Shakespeare for the Youth

Sam Gold has directed five Shakespeare tragedies, but his latest, “Romeo + Juliet,” is something different—a loud, clubby production designed to attract audiences the age of its protagonists. “It's as if the teens from ‘Euphoria' decided that they had to do Shakespeare,” Vinson Cunningham said, “and this is what they came up with.” The production stars Rachel Zegler, who starred in Steven Spielberg's remake of “West Side Story,” and Kit Connor, of the Gen Z Netflix hit “Heartstopper,” and features music by Jack Antonoff. Gold, who cut his teeth doing experimental theatre with the venerable downtown company the Wooster Group, bristles at the view that his production is unfaithful to the original. “A lot of people falsely sort of label me as a deconstructionist or something, because they're wearing street clothes,” he tells Cunningham. “I'm not deconstructing these plays. I'm doing the play. . . . I think it's a gross misunderstanding of the difference between conventions and authentic engagement in a text.” Gold aspires to excite kids to get off their phones. “We are in a mental-health crisis [of] teen suicide. I'm doing a play about teen suicide, and all those young people are coming. And I think we can help them.”
