We've all left jobs that we didn't like. It happens. You really have to do what's best for you.

We're just lucky enough that we've been able to do it relative privacy. When you are the Speaker of the House, even if you are really doing what's best for you, you're still gonna get laughed at.

And maybe even dunked on by late 90s nu-metal bands. Sorry Paul Ryan, you got Papa Roached (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/papa-roach-paul-ryan-resignation-tweet/).

But that's not all we talk about on the pod this week. We also talk ... politics? It is a politics podcast so we probably do that. Donald Trump! What a character.

This week we discuss the plot holes and crunchy memes of A Quiet Place—John Krasinski's film about a terrifying near-future where sound attracts monsters and you can't eat chips—and whether its box-office success is the result of an Office bump or a desire for more original horror films. (Or the challenge of the viewing experience.)

Plus, we unpack Cardi B's Invasion of Privacy and The Simpsons' baffling response (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/the-simpsons-apu/) to the conversation around Apu. And we've got some streaming recommendations for you.

Look, we know there was a lot of depressing news this week.

There was the YouTube shooting (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/youtube-shooting/), and we talk about the fallout from that–including bad hot takes (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/trump-jr-youtube-shooting-tweet/) and conspiracy theories. (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/gateway-pundit-youtube-shooting/) We also discuss sexual harassment at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Oh, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was pretty tone-deaf (https://www.dailydot.com/irl/bernie-sanders-obama-mlk-jr-anniversary/).

But there was a lot to laugh at this week also. So this week on We're All Gonna Die the Daily Dot's politics team talks about Soy Boys (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/chinese-retaliatory-soy-tariffs-thrill-trumps-far-right-base/), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tx.) being asked if he's human (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/ted-cruz-dna-test-question/), and we go through the (many) bad joke-tweets former Gov. Mike Huckabee has made in the past. (There are a lot, and the latest happened this week (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/mike-huckabee-says-colonoscopy-russian-meddling/)).

This week we are ready to discuss Ready Player One, Steven Spielberg's visually impressive but emotionally empty ode to '80s pop culture and nostalgia.

Unclick editor Tiffany Kelly (https://www.dailydot.com/author/tiffany-kelly/) and Parsec writer Michelle Jaworski (https://www.dailydot.com/author/michelle-jaworski/) join the conversation to discuss how the film improved upon the book (https://www.dailydot.com/parsec/ready-player-one-book-review/)'s main characters, how it handled sexuality and fanboy culture (https://www.dailydot.com/parsec/ready-player-one-backlash/), and all the references (http://www.vulture.com/2018/03/here-are-all-the-references-in-ready-player-one.html) it throws at viewers. Why would someone still be referencing There's Something About Mary in 2045? It's never explained!

Plus, we've got streaming recommendations for you, including AMC's new Arctic horror (https://www.dailydot.com/parsec/the-terror-score-suspense/) show The Terror and season 2 of Jessica Jones.

Every day, hundreds of millions of people log onto online, and dunk on Donald Trump Jr (http://www.blubrry.com/tags/donald-trump-jr).

Literally, everyone does it, all day long. And Trump Jr. has been on the losing end of every single Twitter battle he's been in in the past two years.

But one man was brave enough and say it's time to give DJT Jr. a win.

That man?

Jeb! (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/jeb-bush-trump-children-yale/)

And on this week's We're All Gonna Die, we discuss the rare W for Donald, as well as whether we're gonna delete Facebook. Spoiler: We aren't.

Woke Miranda 4 Gov - We're All Gonna Die - 40

This week, we decompress from SXSW 2018 (http://www.dailydot.com/tags/sxsw/) and look back on what we saw and what we learned. One of the things we learned: Thandie Newton's response (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/westworld-sxsw-panel/) to being asked what it's like to play a strong female character during the Westworld panel is the only answer.

(https://www.dailydot.com/wp-content/uploads/cfd/d9/a8d377face7a5b97.gif)

It was a big year for TV at SXSW, for both indie creators and marquee names: Tracy Morgan debuted his new TBS show The Last O.G., Netflix rallied for its hip-hop doc Rapture (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/netflix-rapture-review/), and Westworld recreated (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/westworld-sxsw/) Sweetwater, pushing fans to contemplate their moral color scheme.

Plus! We've got streaming recommendations for spring, including the new Dave Franco-Abbi Jacobson drama 6 Balloons (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/6-balloons-review-netflix-sxsw/), the unreal cult documentary Wild Wild Country (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/wild-wild-country-review-netflix/), and more.

Has someone written an entry about you on KeyWiki (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/what-is-key-wiki/), the ultra conservative Wikipedia-like website that's tracking anti-Trump activity online?

If you don't have one, you're like David, Ellen, Ramon, Logan and Andrew. We're sad about it.

Luckily, this week on We're All Gonna Die, the gang speaks with Claire Downs (https://www.dailydot.com/author/claire-downs/), a Daily Dot contributor, who shed some light on the creepy conservative wiki (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/what-is-key-wiki/). She can speak about it with authority, because someone decided to write a KeyWiki entry about her.

Besides strange right-wing wikis, the panel talks about South by Southwest (https://www.dailydot.com/tags/sxsw-2018/), QAnon (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/reddit-bans-r-cbts_stream/), the president coining a dating term (https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/tillersoned-twitters-favorite-dating-slang/), if Trump is going to build a Death Star (https://www.dailydot.com/debug/donald-trump-military-space-force/), and–of course–our favorite memes of the week. (Things get heated when we talk about the "ravioli" debate (https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/pop-tarts-ravioli-meme/)).

If you are a person under the age of 40, there was one point in your life where you adored blink-128. Don't deny it, it's true.

Maybe you jumped on early, during the Chesire Cat years, and bailed after Dude Ranch. Or you were a little younger and joined at the self-titled album, where Travis Barker just rocks on drums for an hour straight.

Or heck, maybe you are into their new album. Shit's not bad. The point is, you no doubt have a favorite blink-182 song. Which we discuss on the pod today. Andrew's is "Stockholm Syndrome," mine is "Apple Shampoo," and Ramon, he made a whole damn playlist. It shreds (https://open.spotify.com/user/ramongramirez/playlist/6TDEhTYXmEZxcxdDp4MKdt?si=-a-EIkABSQesnUUkEoWwrw).

Listen to that, or, if you want, the podcast below, where talk about other things, too! Like politics.

Look, this is a politics podcast, but let's be honest. It's much more interesting to talk about what's new on Netflix in March.

We have a full list here (https://www.dailydot.com/upstream/whats-new-on-netflix/), but as discussed at the end of the pod, I enjoyed a 32 ounce Victoria beer and watched BeerFest. It was fantastic. You should try it.

We also talk Mike Pence's abortion stance (https://www.dailydot.com/irl/mike-pence-abortion-prediction/), Donald Trump's nickname (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/jeff-sessions-mr-magoo/) for Jeff Session, the departure of Hope Hicks (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/hope-hicks-resignation-twitter-memes/), and this bad rap (https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/utah-representatives-rap-video/).

And here's Andrew's good tweet (https://twitter.com/AndrewWyrich/status/968968749943525377), which he brings up 150 times over the course of the show.
