    Pranav and Sheria talk about whether it's ageist and ableist to make fun of Dianne Feinstein, Mitch McConnell, Joe Biden, and the other elderly oligarchs who control our lives while the skin melts off their bones. We also cancel Ice Spice for having a child twerk in her video and Sheria spreads misinformation about this week's Problematic Fave, Carlee Russell.

    Pranav and Sheria saw the Barbie movie and they can't stop talking about it. Is it woke enough to warrant all this discourse? Is Greta Gerwig this generation's Valerie Solanas? Or is it yassified Wayne's World? Also, where was Theresa? Barbie movie spoilers abound for the three people who haven't seen it.
