Tucker is working to de-optimize his life and taking on the idea of not strangling the goose. The boys talk about whether or not a civil war is looming in America. And the boys...

Influencer With A Day Job w/ Talia Lichstein
You're An Idiot
And the reason Talia has to have a day job is Dave Portnoy. An internet take by this week’s guest, Talia Lichstein (influencer and friend of the pod), about Dave and his dog got back to the man behind Barstool—and it’s safe to say Dave did not like her perspective. Outside of that, Talia talks about dating as an influencer, her thoughts on a new feature for Hinge, what makes it into the girls' group chat, and first date tips. She also shares the conversations and disclosures she has to have with the people she dates about what she might post about their relationship online. Talia even...
