Says Who?

Maureen Johnson and Dan Sinker

In 2016, two friends—and author and a journalist--sat down to ride through the final weeks of the Presidential election by talking to the journalists covering it. They thought they were doing eight episodes. They were wrong. What started as a short trip has become a long and strange journey. They’ve gotten weird. They’ve made friends along the way. Mostly, the weird part, though. Join #1 New York Times bestselling author Maureen Johnson, and legendary publisher of Punk Planet Magazine Dan Sinker as

SPIKY MAT

2024/07/10

Maureen is overloaded with energy. She is crackling. She just set the rug on fire. Dan Dan bring her down to earth? Yes, yes he can. With his tales of self-care, being a dad, and…uh oh! Maureen touched a piece of paper and it also caught on fire. She cannot feel her hand. Help.Luckily, it’s just a week of seismic electoral shifts. The UK unsticks the right-wing underbelly. France flushes the fascists. And the US…What IS going on in the US? Is Biden running? Does anyone know?Maureen has calmed down

2024/06/19

Dan’s coming in hot today. He’s got a lot of jobs. Dad. Podcast producer. Guy who collects dog pee. Teacher. And number one pal to Maureen, whose clothes are inside out. Somehow, this ends up in a reasonably coherent conversation about how racism can be found in the darnedest places in American history! That stuff is everywhere! Maureen gives a short history on eugenics at state fairs. We learn about concerts Dan and Maureen have worked for various causes. And we talk about the saggy ball contest

And once they get Maureen’s unused planner into the act, nothing can go wrong!Dan guides Maureen on a deep dive into Rudy Giuliani's head, much like that billionaire sub guy took that cursed group of fellow billionaires into the depths to look a doomed wreck. Maureen learns way too much about the Hunter Biden trial and the contents of one man’s sock drawer. And finally,

THE MUSICAL EPISODE

Says Who? ·

2024/06/05

This week, Maureen tells a barely disguised tale of recent events, and then talks about her blood test results in a lot of detail. The conclusion? Oats. Meanwhile, Dan has been avoiding reality, but reality has been taking him on a map and finally caught up. This leads nicely to the Trump conviction afterparty and the strangely torrid tale of Hunter Binder’s trial.But this is actually the musical episode. It cannot be explained any other way.Five minutes, SaysWhovia! Places!Says Who is made

Oh dear. Maureen is having a moment. She had a challenging week and is coming to pieces. Luckily, Dan is here! With news! Dan always brings news. It never helps. This has been going on for eight years and is unlikely to change.The UK has done the most UK thing ever by announcing an election no one is excited about. The Prime Minster stood in the pouring rain with no umbrella to give the news. Why didn’t he go inside? Because 2024. Stand in the rain. Meanwhile, Rudy makes it rain in a different way

Rudy got served at his birthday party and Dan and Maureen are excited about it. That’s nice, because Maureen is having a bad week. But then Dan tells her all about his favorite insect: the cicada. It’s a hot cicada summer. Meanwhile, Trump’s first trial begins to wrap up. And there are going to be debates? Next month? In THIS economy?Summer is in the wings, clearing her throat and getting ready to take the stage. It’s going to be hot, buggy, and stupid.But probably no one will serve a warrant at our

Dan needs to tell her all about it. Stormy Daniels was on the stand, talking about shampoo. Michael Cohen apologies.

Oh hello, SaysWhovia. Maureen was just getting her mail. What’s this? A jury summons?LOL, that’s a joke, of course. She would never be so lucky. It’s the ticket of the season! Which lucky New Yorkers will get to hang out in a waiting room with hundreds of other hopefuls, all trying out for one of the big roles as a Trump juror. Everyone is excited! Except, perhaps, except Donal Trump, who keeps taking court naps. He does not want to be there. He is bored and itchy and needs a snack.Meanwhile, the

A CAREFULLY BALANCED DAN IN A CAREFULLY BALANCED VAN

Says Who? ·

2024/03/20

Sometimes, SayWhovia, it’s important to think about balance. Work and life balance. Physical balance. Bank balance. The balance of an overladen van teetering on the edge of a cliff. This is the balance episode, where all of these things will come up. Dan’s work and life balance is a little off again. Maureen is learning physical balance! Trump has a low bank balance. And off of us are living out the end sequence of the 1967 classic film, the Italian Job.This episode makes more sense than most, which
