2021/07/29

Do Jeff Bezos’s balls taste better dipped in ranch? Spoiler alert: no, no they don’t. Join us as we hate on the Billionaire Boyz Club as they skip out on paying taxes, puff up their own blow holes and buy their way into opportunities that others work their whole lives to be lucky enough to achieve. What, me bitter? (Don’t worry, supporters. Melissa comes to the rescue to defend “this testicled asshole.”) Like what you hear?

That fancy vibrator, a Discovery of Cheeses and refusing to call our friends on their own BS. It's enough to make a gal throw a rock through her rear window.

Would you tell a friend when she’s being annoying? Our fear-y (fear-based-theory) is that you wouldn’t even notice. This is America, after all. We’re losing all the filters now — behavior, language, boundaries, civility, common sense… and now, airplane etiquette. Amy gets an unexpected lunch invite from an old friend for no reason. Is this just to catch up (please, please, please), or will Amy walk away with a new Life Coach (oh, no)? Check please! Share your thoughts at @ListenBrilliant,

Ethan makes it through the high school gauntlet unscathed (congratulations!), only to slip into a celebratory stupor courtesy of Dr. Dad's Magic Beer Pong. What is wrong with these people? Missy spends some quality time with her relatives, and learns along with the other Brilliant party guests that murders walk among them.

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who love yard sales, and everyone else. This week, we revisit the doomed notion of hawking one's castoffs for pennies.

It's the Generous Lover episode, featuring all the males we'd like to "aya-eeee." Missy gives a parenting shout out, and Amy mixes up Soledad O'Brien with Soleil Moon Frye (don't we all?).

Show Me Your Crisper | Brilliant Observations 193

Detroit pizza. Roller skating. Cocktail parties. And a crisper drawer that borders on porn? This week, Amy pushes her weight loss into high gear, while Missy celebrates her milestone 500th Peleton ride (to great fanfare). Then, we look back over the past 11 months with nostalgia for all the things we as a society no longer know how to do, like make small talk, walk outside without a mask, shut up at the nail salon, or use social media without a “content team.” Join the conversation online at
