Kesha’s Tooth Collection, Vacation From Your Vacation, and American Monsters

Kesha collects teeth, and honestly, we have questions. We react to Grok’s plans to make its own AI-powered Odyssey, explore the new trend of taking vacations from your vacations, and run through a quick list of America’s own versions of the Loch Ness Monster. We wrap with the social media pet peeves that instantly make us want to close the app and touch grass.

World Cup Halftime, Ed Sheeran's Judge Judy Knowledge, Seth Rogen Thanks Penelope Cruz..for intimacy

EZ files an official review of the World Cup Finals halftime show despite barely watching a second of it, and the verdict is that... it was fine. Turns out everyone owes Taco Bell an apology too, because they had nothing to do with that parasite making the rounds. Ed Sheeran admitted he thought he understood how court cases worked because he watched Judge Judy, which cracks open everything TV and movies taught us that was flat out wrong. The crew gets into whether people recap conversations way too hard in their heads before they even happen, and Jordan swears the world is healing after walking a full mile with a propane tank.

PinkPantheress is set to make her acting debut alongside Matt Damon and Sandra Oh in a super secret Universal film directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert: Erik is dubious... We discuss how seeing a concert through someone else's eyes can either make or break an experience and wrap the show with a conversation about dreams whether they really mean anything at all.
