Happy Labor Day! Even you, Jerry Lewis.
This episode of How Was Your Week is edu-taining and enter-cational! First off, comedian KURT METZGER is here to talk to Julie about approaching Prince, how news people differentiate the Amish, what he believes to be the scariest scene in "The Shining," and whether Rogaine works.
Then, Gawker editor, Internet superstar and general goddamn delight MAX READ joins us to discuss a few online subcultures that desperately need your attention, including ASMR people! Otherkin! Wikipedia authoresses! The Illuminati! And those who are soul-bonded to dead grunge artists. This conversation will shake your core and change your worldview, and at the very least, the ASMR "whispering" stuff will straight-up give you the creeps!
Also: Dad Broth! The ongoing digit-related saga of Honey Boo Boo! Paul Ryan's place in the Jonathan Franzen-verse! The world's dumbest idea for a tattoo! And a tender recollection of a perfectly-timed text from Julie's friend Nate during one dark night.
A show for you and yours. Enjoy it!
