June 16th, 2026: Fox Acquiring Roku, The UK's Ban On Social And Emily Co-Hosts

Today's episode covers Fox's $22 billion acquisition of Roku, the United Kingdom's proposal to ban social apps for under-16s, and President Trump's $14.2 million reflecting pool renovation that quickly turned green with algae. Hosts Lindsey and Emily react with sarcasm and nostalgia (AIM, MySpace), share personal updates including a sober milestone and a bittersweet Knicks moment, and close with practical time-saving and cooking tips.

June 11th, 2026: Social Media Bans, SpaceX Makes Millionaires And My Week

On June 11, 2026, Lindsey Vernick delivers the Daily Sarcast — sponsored by Trader Joe’s flowers — with a short, funny roundup of today’s top headlines. Australia’s new law banning social media for under‑16s is failing in practice: most teens are still on Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok, though some parents welcome the legal cover to limit screen time for younger kids. SpaceX files for an IPO with a roughly $1.77 trillion valuation, creating unexpected millionaires among employees while also highlighting wild stories about who cashed out early. The NBA is left guessing Victor Wembanyama’s true height as listings change and fans joke that he may need a ladder (or a drone) to be measured accurately. Lindsay wraps up with personal notes about unemployment bureaucracy, small-life adventures (including a rat scare), a cooking tip, and a promise to return tomorrow.
