Show Notes
<p dir="ltr">The ice bucket challenge is back, Lady Gaga’s making dance-pop again, and everyone’s hoarding tinned fish. Could it all mean… a recession?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Comedians <a href="https://www.instagram.com/zzdoublezz">Zach Zimmerman</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/eliotglazer/?hl=en">Eliot Glazer</a> join us to unpack the internet’s funniest (and eeriest) recession indicator memes — from “recession blonde” to layaway coachella tickets to the return of vampire movies.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Then, the hot takes fly: Zach argues that daytime TV needs to be mean again (bring back the mess!), while Eliot questions the cult of Kylie Minogue and calls for Joy Behar to take over <em>The View</em>.</p>
