Hi Flop Tarts,

This week we go long on SNL50 and the chaotic Lorne Michaels biography email thread that kicked off the whole weekend. Plus: society continues to flop all around us as Sheryl Crow sells her Tesla, Captain America's Brave New Floppy Slop premieres to chillingly high box office numbers, and the TikTok brainrot crowd cheers on an anglerfish who travels to the WRONG part of the ocean!

Flops abound and we're here to guide you through it all!

xoxo,

Justin, Cassandra, and David

Show Notes

Quick Flops
Carrie Underwood fell off a porch
The Original Beef of Chicagoland

Slamming the door shut on Dora Jar, btw Dora Jar's music is here if you want to check her out because of how brutal this is
Too much monkey-ing around
Britney Spears Biopic Rumors
FBI: WTF

Is Corporate DEI Flopping?
Trump ends all federal DEI programs
Many companies announce they are also ending DEI (not something they need to do per Trump's mandate), to which we say: why don't you tell me more about how effective your DEI programs actually were??
Trump's executive order ending DEI at the federal level explained - incl. how it threatens companies, non-profits, those not directly under the federal umbrella (you may get paywalled by this but if you save it on Pocket, you can read it!)

Local Flops
LA - Lil' Kim Prays for Monsoon, it kinda works
PHL - Cherelle Parker spells EAGLES wrong

Hi Flop Tarts,

Hope your new years are off to a great start :) This week, Producer David joins us to chat through the rise of sad beige mom aesthetic, the fall of Carrie Underwood, how David confused Dungeons and Dragons with a Cop Movie, and the ultimate flop: Zuckerberg declaring a war against wokeness and deeming feminine energy in the workplace OVER. Nothing more homoerotic than changing your entire company's DNA to impress another man (that man? Donald Trump).

See you in the chat xx
Cassandra, (not) Justin, & David

Show Notes

Hi Divas,

We're just not feeling this one, and by this one we mean: the year 2025. She started off floppy this week and we have all the gory details. Come for our flop apology to Blake Lively (but NOT her hair product), and stay for our detailed takedown of that weird graphic thing they did to point out nominees in the crowd at the Golden Globes. Plus: if alcohol is killing us, but we need parties now more than ever, what's a gorgeous flop tart to do?

See you in the chat ;)
xoxo
Flop Soup
