  The Cornell 7, Nicki Minaj's Fox Interview, and Who's Hiding What in Their Camera Roll

  Sep 29, 202655 minS3

  ** This episode includes discussion of SA . Joy Taylor, Hayley and Spex take on a heavy week of news. First up is the Cornell 7 lawsuit. A former student is suing the university, a fraternity and seven current or former members over an alleged 2024 assault. That leads into a deeper conversation about victim blaming, institutional failure, the 57 men in the group chat who did nothing, and what parents of boys need to be teaching at home. Joy looks back on the buddy-system rules she and her friends lived by in college 20+ years ago, and why nothing has changed. Then the crew reacts to Nicki Minaj's Fox interview with Lara Trump and her comments on Democrats and pop culture. That turns into a real-talk plea ahead of the midterms: register, research your ballot, ask questions, and stop taking political cues from celebrities.  Plus, this week's Would You Rather: expose your search history or your camera roll? It goes exactly where you think it goes.   00:00 Open 00:36 Welcome to Two Personal 01:04 Full Moon, Fall Equinox & a Fresh Week of News 01:55 The Cornell 7 Lawsuit 05:57 Who Institutions Really Protect 06:43 "It's Always 100% the Perpetrator's Fault" 09:02 False Accusations & Accountability 10:48 The Instant What-Aboutism 12:02 57 Men in the Group Chat 14:24 The "Men Are Protectors" Myth 18:08 A Message to Boy Moms 19:04 Women's Role in Upholding the System 20:30 Joy's College Days & the Buddy System 24:52 Promising Young Woman 25:47 Emmett Till & the History of False Accusations 28:21 In the Vortex 30:02 Sidebar: No Sleepovers 30:24 Nicki Minaj's Fox Interview 34:10 AI, "End Times" & Getting Serious About Politics 36:40 The Midterms Are a Month Away 37:24 Why Joy Always Votes 40:40 Spex Weighs In 42:04 When Did Asking Questions Become Shameful? 44:13 Those AI Migos Videos 45:00 Would You Rather: Search History or Camera Roll? 46:30 Sending Pics 49:41 The Unrequested Pic & Spex' H&M Story 51:36 The Selfie Test 52:42 Embarrassing Searches & the ChatGPT Roast Trend 54:04 Hayley's Spider-Man Mom Requests 54:21 Outro See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Trump Bans CNN, Paul Brothers at the Pentagon, Symba Talks Snowfall's The Drop

  Sep 22, 20261h 16mS3

  Trump bans CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the White House — and even Fox is pulling out of pool coverage. Joy and Hayley break down what it means for a free press (and drop a few names of history's worst dictators along the way). Then: Jake and Logan Paul show up at the Pentagon to address troops, Gen Z's TikTok campaign wants millennials to retire so they can move up (absolutely not), and Joy tells the story of her "Witch Era" — the night a guy sat down uninvited at her table and got scared off with one line. Then rapper/actor Symba joins the couch to talk playing Tiptoe on FX's The Drop, the Snowfall spinoff carrying one of TV's great sagas forward and how the role almost went differently, what he learned on set, and how the music industry's obsession with virality is leaving real experience behind. Capping it off with Never Two Personal: a year in prison, or a lifetime with a bad baby mama or baby daddy?   00:53 – Welcome & Intro 01:11 – Trump Bans CNN, MSNBC & Politico 11:58 – The Paul Brothers Visit the Pentagon 14:31 – Symba Joins the Show 14:34 – Symba Talks Playing Tiptoe on Snowfall's The Drop 32:25 – Gen Z Wants Millennials to Retire (Symba Talks Music Industry) 49:01 – Joy's Witch Era Story 1:02:06 – Never Two Personal: Jail vs. Bad Baby Mama/Daddy 1:15:08 – Outro See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
