WE'RE BACK, Y'ALL! BUCKLE UP! We're talking TECH, folks! Due to a tragic technological malfunction, our discussion of certain music streaming services has been lost. Coincidence? Conspiracy? Find out in future episodes of the POP-OFF SALON.

We discuss the origin story of Valentine’s Day, but not before we lay out our steaming hot takes on Oreo’s Lady Gaga line and pranks. Then we review a call in which a dear listener and friend recounts a most harrowing story of pandemic courtship. Finally, we wrap up with a discussion of our love languages.

We have friend of the pod Michael B. on to discuss Amanda Petrusich's article for the New Yorker titled "Against Chill: Apathetic Music to Make Spreadsheets To", a fifteen dollar minimum wage, unsavory workplace experiences, pyramid schemes, and the liberation of Grimes.
