It’s the second ever special guest episode of A Special Place In Hell! This week, journalist Suzy Weiss visits the pod, not only fulfilling Sarah’s call for a Gen Z guest but also sharing her insights from her recent Common Sense article Generation Swipe. Suzy explains what a decade of dating app culture has done to the psyches and future plans (or lack thereof) for millennial and Gen Z-ers. It is depressing out there, but Suzy is optimistic. (A welcome change from nihilistic Sarah.)

Suzy also talks about what it’s like being the sister of one of the most beloved and vilified figures in media, Bari Weiss.

Then, in bonus content that’s available to everyone this week (YOU ARE WELCOME), Sarah and Meghan talk about Suzy behind her back for a few minutes before reading and discussing a blog post about women can live their best lives. (Hint: a little bit of plastic surgery goes a long way ladies!)However, as usual the comment section (often more thoughtful than the podcast) is available ONLY to paying subscribers, so pony up!
