Lindy and Meagan Run it Back (Featuring Guy Branum!)
Text Me Back! With Lindy West And Meagan Hatcher-MaysShow Notes
Rerun? What’s that? Don’t be mad at us! We’re taking a little seasonal break BUT WE STILL HAVE SOME GREAT STUFF RUNNING ON THE FEED TO KEEP YOU FED. Today, we are revisiting our iconic Pledge Drive 2025 ep featuring Emmy award winning writer Guy Branum. Guy shares his recent experience being fat on an airplane (not a crime) wherein he was assaulted (crime). Just a little reminder to – as Meagan says – pack your patience this traveling season. Download a few of our early episodes to keep you cozy on that plane, cue up Devil Wears Prada for a little break from us that you will inevitably need, and enjoy your complimentary (or if you’re on Spirit, obnoxiously priced) little beverages, and don’t forget to text us your every thought over this season at (703) 829-0003. BTW because it’s mentioned throughout this ep, our BBLS for BBWS tote is totally available! A perfect holiday gift for your favorite BBWs out there??? We think so! Also how cute is this little tray??? This is one of those things you buy for someone else and then just keep. You deserve it, mama. We miss you already. TTYL MUAH.

REAL LIFE EXAMPLE: “A delightfully hilarious podcast that doesn't try to explain what it is, other than two friends talking about some current events and recurring whimsies that have their own introduction jingles. If you have time, go back and listen to several episodes of the first season to understand a bit of their lore, I wouldn't suggest it if you wouldn't be in for a hilarious treat. The world feels hard some days and I look forward to episodes because they laugh so much.”

We are still riding the high of last week’s pledge drive! For everyone who tuned in for the live, you’re legally our children now and we love you. So many people upgraded their Patreon memberships, wrote in with bestie esstays, connected in the Discord, and brought so much joy to our week. Asking for support is hard! And you all made it easy for us. Guess we’ll keep making the pod :/
Welcome back to Swamp Person! Today we welcome our first GUEST. Her name is Jenny Hunter, and she’s a labor lawyer and writer based in DC. And we are so excited to be answering some important questions about LABOR UNIONS + THE SUPREME COURT.
Today we have a listener question coming in from one Lindy W. of the Washington State area: How come sometimes the Supreme Court issues a ruling that doesn’t make us want to claw our eyeballs out? Sometimes Clarence Thomas decides NOT to p*ss in our mouths??? Is that on purpose?
We just want to say thank you to everyone who has been tuning into the live stream so far! We have given away copies of Adult Braces, we have read your essays, and we have fallen in love with each and every one of you!! If you haven’t yet tuned in, we have ONE MORE livestream TONIGHT!!! Join us on Youtube! See you here at 8pm ET // 5pm PT!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/@textmebackpod/streams
