F*ck the Press

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. 

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. 

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. Real news starts at

*Shoutout to Seth for an A on my paper- Merry* 

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. 

This week we talked about the crazy protests in Russia, what's up with the filibuster and impeachment, but most importantly, the end of Rudy Giuliani. 

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. No surprise, we circled back to Merry's Jon Ossoff obsession. As always, thanks for your submissions and sorry about the mic issue (again). 

That's how we define the app, Parler. 

Tune in this week to hear Seli and Merry go over COVID-19 vaccine common myths and misconceptions plus the House impeachment vote and the aftermath of the Capitol riot. 

We're back for another season and this one won't disappoint (hopefully). Tune in for another week of Seli mixing metaphors and mispronouncing everything + Merry exposing herself but mostly to talk about what happened on January 6 on Capitol Hill & the outcome of the historic GA Senate Elections. 

2017-2020. We know who Trump is, but what has he actually done in the last 4 years? On today's episode of the 2 part series, we talked about Trump's promises on defense/the military, the judicial department, ISIS, and so much more and whether or not he kept those promises. 

2017-2020. We know who Trump is but what has he actually done in the last 4 years? On today's episode of a 2 part series, we talked about the promises Trump made on the campaign trail in 2016 and which of those he actually kept (hint: it's a lot of them). This episode covers what he promised on the economy, trade, immigration and healthcare. 

Amy Coney Barrett, the Senate races of our LIVES, voter referendums in Virginia, ending SARS and MORE. Yeah, we went all out in this episode (no need to flex or anything). 

WHATSUP guys!! New episode this week on a recap of the VP debate, our opinion on the new discussion surrounding the Obergefell v. Hodges case and the kidnapping of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer that was stopped by the FBI. 

WE'RE BACK BABY!! After facing the technical difficulties of a lifetime last week, we're back this week talking about the Breonna Taylor case and the shitshow we like to call the first presidential debate. 

West Coast wildfires, climate change and Planned Parenthood. 

Yes, we know our audio quality is some ass, we're really trying so bear with us guys :) As always, thanks for listening & we'll see you next week. 

We're back and with a reintroduction! This week, we talked about who we are, why we started the pod and most importantly answered some of your questions on how to deal with anxiety and the news. We also talked about why it's important to care about international politics and what we hope to accomplish in the future. If you are a political science or international studies/relations major in college, you will definitely relate to this episode! 

We aren't going to apologize for going off on this episode sorry. We talked gave updates on China and the Uygher Muslims, the rampant anti-semite attacks going around right now, election fraud updates and did a mini Q&A with your questions at the end! 

First, we are sorry for how many times we say "um" in this episode. I promise we're working on it! This week we talked about Jacob Blake's attempted murder, imperialism in Africa and the roots of white supremacy. This episode means the most to us so we hope you stick it out to the end. 

Other than us not being able to pronounce names on this episode, we covered the Thai protests, US intelligence reports regarding Iran and bounties, updates on Beirut and Belarus, the USPS and Russian interference in the 2016 elections. Are you guys proud of us for covering this much? We definitely are. 

On this episode, we learn that we can't pronounce words and we also talk about what happened these past couple of weeks. From a lawsuit threatening to destroy the NRA to all about Kamala Harris to the stopping of the annexation of Palestine, this episode covers a LOT. 

Please excuse how many times we say "um" this episode. This week, we talked about the four main executive orders Trump passed in the last 2 weeks including his attempts to fix the student loan crisis and reinstall the $400 biweekly unemployment checks (all of which are unconstitutional). 

On this solo episode, Merry takes on everything voting related (gerrymandering, which states' votes count more in the election, why you may not be eligible to vote etc). As boring as it sounds, it is one of the most important and relevant topics on the pod so far. 

This week we launched a bonus episode to bring awareness to the Libyan Slave Trade and the thousands of refugees who are being detained in Libya while also being sold into slavery.
