  • Summary

  • Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk! Who will Kamala pick as her VP? We want Mayor Pete, but we're not sure if he'll make the cut (this time). VP candidate and couch aficionado J.D. Vance lashed out at childless cat ladies - he has no idea what he's done! As childless (dog) ladies ourselves, we feel seen by this report from Pew that shows 57% of people under 50 who aren't having kids cite "just not wanting to" as their primary reason. Do you need to have biological children to give a damn about the future of your country and the world? How is Andrew supposed to touch all that grass if he didn't care about conservation? Falling birth rates globally is breeding a pronatalism movement, wherein some are looking to incentivize having children. We're happy to be the cool aunties/uncle and continue growing our fur baby collections. But we can still love and care about the future of the children in our lives! Is Spotify forcing users to listen to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso”? Some users (including on our panel) feel like they simply cannot escape Espresso. Many people with this concern believe that Carpenter's label is paying Spotify to "force feed" Espresso to listeners around the world. But why? The song is already regarded as a bop, and has been doing well since it dropped this spring. Sabrina Carpenter isn't alone though, a similar trend has emerged with Chappell Roan's "Good Luck, Babe!" and Tommy Richman's "Million Dollar Baby." Does this simply boil down to Spotify's algorithm not being as good as it once was? This week's recommendations will entertain and make your heart full: The Chameleon (Andrew), Inkless Ink Pads for taking impressions of your fur baby's paw prints (Laura), and "My Lady Jane" on Amazon Prime (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark: It's a roll call special! We're not leading with any agenda besides the things we want to bitch about today. What is the point of having a smart doorbell if people will continue knocking instead of using it and taking the message that if we're not answering, we don't want to? We have a bone to pick with Yelp and the INJUSTICE it has done! What are some of our best door-to-door solicitor stories? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
