Robin tells Jon about that time she got over-caffeinated and thought the FBI was coming after her for pirated DVDs.

Jon is really into simulation theory. Robin doesn't care that much one way or the other, but she's (almost) always happy to hear what Jon has to say.

In their first mini episode, Jon and Robin check in on Tanner Adell and discuss her new single "Going Blonde" and how internet comments are treating her these days.

Happy New Year! Yes it's July. Yes we have a significant backlog. But books- like the internet- are forever and so is the drama. Join us as we discuss just a tiny smattering of the controversy that abounds in online reader spaces like Book Tok and Book Threads.

Due to the unpredictability of adulthood, we've been out for a bit. But the internet is forever! Maybe. Who knows? Jon thinks it's in its last gasping days, while Robin can't live if living means without wi-fi. Let's talk Dead Internet Theory because podcasting is way more fun than being a real grown-up.

Robin and BFF Patrick from Swirl Talk 901 discuss Beyonce's triumph at the 2025 Grammys and some people who are Big Mad about it.

Join Robin and Jon for a release of an old episode that has been waiting in the wings for The Moment. And that moment turned out to be Beyonce's multiple 2025 Grammy wins for her album Cowboy Carter. In 2023, a young artist named Tanner Adell released a pop country single titled "Buckle Bunny" and internet men had big feelings in online comment sections.
