It’s 2026, we’re ten days in, and already debating whether being called a “podcaster” is a slur. Em + Cait unpack New Year identity crises, MILF discourse, and why softness might be the most terrifying resolution of all. From hockey romance TV debates and the rise of pegging (yes, really), to AI logos that all look like buttholes, tech gone feral, vaccine chaos, and genuinely hopeful science breakthroughs, this episode pinballs between horny, horrified, and cautiously optimistic. Plus: why you shouldn’t sit on the toilet too long, how to meet people IRL without apps, and proof that this podcast is officially no longer “just a hobby.”The girls also address the sweetest mailbag question about building a community.Shownotes:the boys want to get peggedlogos look like buttsElon's grok is undressing girlstv smoothingbigandmini.orgvenezuela huntington's updatelecanemab alzheimerman paralyzed on the pottypipeline updatesmovies ideas: long shot, game night, bugonia, one battle after another, wake up dead man, sinnerstv to watch: the assemblybooks:you exist too muchmy friends fredrik bachmaneveryone in my family has killed someonewild dark shorehouse on the cerulean sea*** Follow along: Your Weekly Breakdown on instagram: www.instagram.com/yourweeklybreakdown Your Weekly Breakdown on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yourweeklybreakdownpod Caitlin on instagram: www.instagram.com/caitlinhowden Emily on instagram: www.instagram.com/emilykeyistyping Interested in advertising in a Hard Copy Media property?
