About 10 years ago, Jane Marie was doing pretty damn good for herself. She was on her own, had a new baby and was working hard as an editor at the feminist website, Jezebel. Then, it all came crashing down when an editor at Gawker, the umbrella site Jezebel was published under, released a story about a recently discovered Hulk Hogan sex tape - including footage.

Enter Peter Theil, who had been looking for a reason to settle a score with Gawker when the Hulk scandal fell squarely in his lap. Theil ended up funding Hollywood Hulk's long, costly legal battle and when it was all said and done, Gawker couldn't keep up with the Theil money being thrown at them. They also made a few mistakes during depositions and trial testimony out of, let's just say, hubris, that didn't curry favor with the Judge deciding the case. When Gawker fell, it took everyone associated with the site down with it.

On this week's episode, Jane sits down with the once cocky and brash Gawker editor, AJ Daulerio (the one who decided to publish the Hogan story), to talk about the where and the why of it all and find out if anything's changed in AJ's life since the heady days of the 2010's.

It's science season! I made that up, but after talking to physicist Dr. Liam Bollmann-Dodd on last week's episode, this week host Jane Marie sits down with Dr. Chem Thug, a PHD chemist trying to do the good work of explaining chemistry online to the rest of us online in ways that we can actually understand. There will be some debunking. There will be some making chemistry interesting to those of us who slept through (and were subsequently kicked out of) Chemistry class in high school. And! There will be some serious "Please god, do not do that.", that many of us could use a healthy dose of.
