Kristen and Harrison catch up as Kristen vacations in Florida—hiking, fishing, seeing local protests, and noting beach life before heading to St. Augustine. Harrison recaps UConn’s college basketball run, a dramatic late game-winner, and a Drag Race crossover involving a women’s Final Four player. Their QT of the week highlights the WNBA’s new collective bargaining agreement and Nobel economist Claudia Goldin advising the players, plus concerns about the WNBA undervaluing its media-rights share and the Connecticut Sun’s move to Houston. They also discuss Chappell Roan’s Brazil controversy, celebrity privacy boundaries, and claims much of the backlash came from bots.

Harrison and Kristen celebrate women’s sports news: the NWHL “sports bra toss” charity drive and a major WNBA collective bargaining agreement raising the team salary cap to $7 million, the supermax to $1.7 million, and the minimum salary to $300,000, framing it as historic for women and queer athletes; they also discuss WNBA card collecting and NCAA tournament timing. The hosts criticize media priorities around a Cesar Chavez abuse headline amid Epstein-related controversies and war propaganda, discuss Kat Abughazaleh’s Chicago race and AIPAC’s vote-splitting tactics, argue for getting money (and stock trading) out of politics, and name local communities blocking ICE detention-warehouse plans as their “cutie of the week.”

Kristen and Harrison chat about Kristen’s upcoming vacation and her slightly used Subaru Crosstrek. Harrison recaps recent basketball updates, a San Francisco queer daytime party (Daytime Realness) honoring drag performer Helena amid lingering questions about her death, and then cover Oscars highlights QT of the week is Andy Thompson, a Democrat who won Boca Raton mayor after a recount shifted a 1-vote win to 5 votes.

Kristen and Harrison chat about warmer weather and their weekends, including Harrison’s attempt to find a lively place in San Francisco to watch the SEC women’s basketball tournament. Kristen recounts performing comedy at the Rainbow Mountain Resort in the Poconos and describes a disturbing post-show incident. They connect the episode to emotional dysregulation and accountability among men, then discuss Trump firing DHS Secretary Kristi Noem after scrutiny over a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign and his plan to replace her with Senator Markwayne Mullin. Kristen names the Rainbow Mountain Resort staff as QT of the week.

Harrison and Kristen recap Provincetown’s winter storm, discussing widespread outages, reliance on electric mini-splits, cleanup, and the privilege of having gas heat and cooking. The conversation shifts to frustration with U.S. politics—war, the economy, Epstein, and lack of transparency—arguing that “America first” promises have collapsed and calling for vocal opposition. Harrison lays out a thesis that major societal failures stem from white men avoiding accountability, linking it to patriarchy, capitalism, and religion, and condemns Christianity as inherently oppressive and implicated in abuse. 

Kristen and Harrison compare their own fitness journeys to the elite athletes competing at this year’s Winter Olympics — with a healthy mix of admiration and self-awareness. From ice time to endurance, they consider what it really takes to perform at the highest level.

Kristen outlines her (semi-serious) plan for an Olympic debut and shares some strong opinions about exactly how hard she likes her ice.

Then they shift to politics, unpacking the “vote blue no matter who” debate and thinking through what a genuinely unified left might look like.

Sports, strategy, and a little ideology — all in one conversation.
