America Turns 250

America Turns 250

In this week's episode of the Rich Spinster podcast, Alexis unpacks the administration's Great American Mess of Fourth of July festivities in Washington, D.C., the relentless heat wave that's turned the Northeast into a sauna, and the lingering question everyone wants answered: Is Mitch McConnell actually alive? From smoke-filled skies over the nation's capital to the increasingly surreal state of American politics, celebrating the Fourth this year felt less like patriotism and more like an episode of The Twilight Zone. With her unapologetic commentary, Alexis explores why reality feels stranger than fiction and why sometimes all you can do is laugh to keep from screaming.

Hot Takes

On this week’s episode of the Rich Spinster Podcast, Alexis comes to Oprah Winfrey's defense, unpacking the wave of online criticism directed at one of the world's most influential women and exploring why internet outrage so often misses the bigger picture. She also weighs in on the debacle surrounding the Great American State Fair, reflects on the importance of building genuine connection and community in an increasingly disconnected world, and shares her thoughts on the extreme heat making its way across the Northeast. From pop culture to current events to the everyday moments that remind us what really matters, Alexis delivers another episode filled with wit, perspective, and the kind of conversation that feels like catching up with a good friend who always has something worth saying.

Monday Musings

This week on the Rich Spinster Podcast, Alexis is serving up a little bit of everything. From reflecting on the blessing of a good father to the opening of the Obama Library, she dives into the stories, moments, and musings that have been living rent-free in her mind. Along the way, she tackles Kool-Aid pineapples, Jay-Z’s Target deal, and yes, even Badu P*ssy. Life has a way of mixing the sweet with the sour, and Alexis is here to savor it all, make sense of it, and share it with you. Pull up a chair and join the conversation.

A Week & A Day

After a brief hiatus, Alexis is back behind the mic, catching listeners up on what’s been happening in her world and breaking down a few pop culture stories that demanded her attention. Equal parts funny, insightful, and unapologetically honest, Rich Spinster delivers the kind of conversation that feels like sitting down with your realest girlfriend. Tune in every Monday for sharp commentary, lively gab, a little perspective when you need it, and the occasional reality check. Because sometimes what you've been missing isn't another hot take; it's a good girlfriend, great conversation, and a bit of grounding.

See you on June 2nd!

Season 1 of the Rich Spinster Podcast was an absolute joy with equal parts release, reflection, and raw expression. While I’m on break, take this time to catch up on past episodes and sit with the conversations we’ve already started. I’ll be back on June 2, 2026. I'll be coming with even more fire and fury.
