Hi. On today's episode, we look at how everyone except the richest Americans are largely being priced out of things that used to be common middle class activities, and how even when you can afford something, it probably kind of sucks.

I too look forward to the next Dune movie and don't look forward to the cost of going to see it. How you Dune??

When your main through-line is "fuck everybody except me as hard and as often as possible", most people end up very fucked, very hard, very often. Who'da thunk?

Be careful about what you say about baby balls inc. I hear they're very litigious.

This is a really good one, y'all, thanks!

I'm a full-time teacher in a state where teachers are paid pretty well and I live with a roommate because, with the expenses related to my physical disability, I can’t afford a wheelchair accessible one bedroom apartment. It is beyond ridiculous.

As someone whose only “vacation” in the past five years was being on short term disability because I physically could not work or spending nights at the hospital for mental health concerns… thank you for putting this all into words. It’s untenable and a lot more people are starting to experience very dire struggles with not being able to afford to have joys.

Great episode. I wish you didn’t have to make it

Dang Johnathan, that's a very concise description of our mutual despair

Oh boy! You guys literally posted this as I eat my treat-Uber Eats overpriced food the day I got my electric bill and possibly being priced at the end of the year out of the house I've been in for 10 years, AND cant get a film job (or any job!) that utilises the skills I have. It's like you guys are psychic or something!!!
