In this episode, Kate draws from a hat that contains topics listeners submitted as deep dive requests. Instead of going deep, she "snorkels" through each topic, spending 10-20 minutes on a mini dive for each. Topics include: Kelly Ripa/Jessica Seinfeld's feud, hangover anxiety, Hillsong church/tithing/prosperity gospel, things you did to get your crush's attention, Britney's gym, prom/homecoming pictures/dinner/themes, influencer PR gifting, Selling Sunset and more!

This week, Kate discusses the layers of a major story involving a wildly popular podcast, Call Her Daddy. In this episode, she first discusses the show's unprecedented success, theories on why the show is popular, and her perspective on when sexual rhetoric objectifies vs. empowers women. But, the discussion of their show's content is simply for musing's sake; more importantly, she wants to highlight that one of the issues with this story's coverage is that their show's subject matter is unfairl...
