Kamala Is Brat and Major Tradwife Drama ...

The Ringer
About this episode

Two major world events happened this week: Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and tradwife TikToker Ballerina Farm did an interview with The Times. Jodi and Chelsea check in with Ms. Katy Perry to see what highfalutin venues she’s playing these days (3:50) before pulling on their wellies and wading into Kamala pop girlie edits, ‘Love Island’ memes, ‘Veep’ comparisons, and what exactly "brat" is in the context of all in which it lives and what came before it (8:00). Then they briefly bask in the glory of Shannen Doherty’s posthumous, haterific list of people she doesn’t want at her funeral (28:00). They also address the major tradwife drama that hit the streets this week with Ballerina Farm’s interview (33:46). Finally, they share their personal obsessions of the week (1:07:47).

Hosts: Jodi Walker and Chelsea Stark-Jones

Producer: Sasha Ashall
