Gilead, Joe Rogan & Good Ol’ GOP Grift
Manage episode 493195919 series 3676229
Ya' girls are in peak petty form this week as they dive into a whirlwind of politics, immigration injustice, economic chaos, and pop culture pettiness—with our usual sass.
🎙️ This week on The Um, Sir Podcast…
Trump’s treating the national economy like it’s his Monopoly board—except we’re the ones landing on luxury tax. Again.
A Maryland man was wrongfully deported to El Salvador and left in a max-security prison—right before Kristi Noem popped in for a PR stunt with her $60K Rolex. Did she rescue him? Of course not. She’s too busy murdering puppies and democracy. But good news since recording, he's alive!
Tariffs are wrecking our wallets. Retirement accounts are crashing. And apparently, if you’re broke, it’s your fault for not saving during the last 30 years of chaos.
Meanwhile, a judge in Alabama reminded us that free speech and bodily autonomy still technically exist. For now... Viva Las Vegas!
Also: Serena Joy’s finally on our side in Handmaid’s Tale, but don’t get too cozy—she’s still the worst. Much like the real-life MAGA women, realizing too late that rights aren’t just for brunch.
🎉 Upcoming Event: Come hang out at “Drinks, Dissent, and Defiance” with Planned Parenthood Alliance Advocates on May 15 in Seattle. Get your tickets HERE!
