We literally can't keep up with the Kardashians and is Wordle worth it?
We had NO plans to discuss any of the Kardashian drama today but it is the media train that just wont stop.  Even as I type this Kanye has gone on more rants and posted more crazy accusations.  Keeping up in real time is near impossible but here is what we know as of Thursday afternoon. We also discuss the latest information from Bob Saget's family regarding his death.  On the deep dive of the week we discuss the Julia Fox interview from the Call Her Daddy podcast.  Oh!  And did you hear that Kylie had a baby boy?

Vagina Juice and More!
We begin tis episode with a little dry January recap and why Shannon was plagued with unexpected vagina juice. This week's social catch up line up is: -Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are pregnant and the world stopped to check out their epic pregnancy announcement.  Get ready to have the coolest kid ever grace the world very soon.   -Former Miss America, Chelsie Kryst, dies after jumping to her death from a NYC building earlier this week.  We discuss the legacy she left behind and how the pageant world is effected from the passing of this well known beauty queen. -Minnie changed into a suit and everyone had an opinion about it. As a tribute to Disney Land Paris' 30th anniversary, Disney partnered with Stella McCartney to help bring a fresh look to our favorite lady mouse. Not everyone feels this was the best move.  We unpack some of the criticism said about Minnie Mouse's new look. -Brené Brown decided to take a pause from podcasting after dedicating some time to learn more about the Spotify misinformation guidelines.  She received major heat for this decision.  We discuss her stance and latest statement.   Whoopie Goldberg is suspended after making insensitive remarks about the Holocaust.  Resources: https://people.com/parents/rihanna-pregnant-expecting-first-baby/ https://www.intheknow.com/post/minnie-mouse-makeover/ https://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article257792038.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/31/us/cheslie-kryst-dead.html https://brenebrown.com/articles/2022/02/01/an-update-on-my-decision-to-pause-the-podcasts/ https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/01/us/whoopi-goldberg-holocaust.html --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/crazy-zen-life/message

Social Catch Up: Lots of Sh*t with a candy crunch!
We love a good a theme just as much as a four letter word at CZL, and this week we are giving ,lots of both. We shifted through all of the sh*t of the news headlines to give you just the meat and potatoes of what you need to know. And, we are not just talking about Brittany's toilet troubles. -We take a light look at the 2-part interview Alex Cooper (Call Her Daddy) had with Jamie Lynn Spears last week.  Jamie Lynn opens up about her life living in the shadows of her famous sister and how "she was too young to remember" a lot of the details.  We go over a lot of what Jamie Lynn DIDN'T say.  https://open.spotify.com/episode/3YGHGo6ZZw9DIkvy6VV0TJ- Jamie Lynn Interview - And good ole Kanye (Ye) is definitely trying to go for the social catch up mention record.  He showed up this week opening up about HIS narrative to Hollywood Unlocked and shedding light on his recently Kim Kardashian drama.  Did security really turn him away from Kim's house?  Is there a second sex tape?  We may never know but we must discuss!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqkgyU-Tu84 - Kanye Interview The most beloved candy in the world is getting makeover! (or an upgrade) M&M's are coming in to 2022 with a fresh look and new attitude.  Should other candy companies take the hint?   https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/2022/01/21/mandms-rebrand-personalities/      --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/crazy-zen-life/message
