Note: After this episode was released early for Primos, our diligent subscribers pointed out two errors: One, Helen Lewis did, in fact, mention that Aella showered on 24 days in 2024. And two, New York City does, in fact, have a ban on single-use plastic bags, as does Washington state. The episode has been corrected. Apologies to Helen Lewis and plastic bag bans everywhere.
