we like to have fun here at nersey, but we also like to get mad. this week, we’re joined by friend of the pod emilie friedlander — writer, editor, and co-host of the culture journalist — to get mad at rich people who cause all our friends to lose their jobs. VICE, aka the place we all used to work at (including emilie), continues to go bankrupt as hell, and new court filings are showing exactly how the company spent its money — and on whom — in the weeks leading up its chapter 11 declaration. spoiler alert: all the executives got bonuses. no war but class war babey!!!!
also discussed: AI takin’ our jobs, drew’s semi-delusional belief that the seth rogen movie long shot was secretly based on his life, and why the hell slava was shaving his head mid-recording.
