Then she's joined by Maureen Callahan, Mark Halperin, and Link Lauren, the stars of MK Media, and her friend and hair stylist Sara Clemente, to discuss the premiere of “Blonde Origin”, their hilarious spoof of the ridiculous Blue Origin “astronauts,” the absurd behind-the-scenes details from the filming, and more. Then Mike Rowe, host of "People You Should Know," joins to discuss the challenging requirements for true space exploration, his experience with a fighter pilot, the absurd "Blue Origin" women pretending they accomplished something historic, Michelle Obama’s latest round of complaints about how expensive and difficult it was to live in the White House, how wildly out-of-touch her comments are given her elite status, the contrast between empowered individuals who find fulfillment in hard work and privileged elites who still feel dissatisfied, stories of perseverance highlighting the importance of gratitude and his new show, lighthearted stories of humility in unexpected moments, the importance of laughing at ourselves and mocking smug elites, and more.

I used to use a different app that was able to save excerpts from podcast and really enjoyed it. I could listen to the podcast and quickly save things that I wanted to come back to later. Snipd take this to a whole new level with AI integration, creating summaries of podcasts and summarizing the main takeaways from what I’ve saved and snipped.
